Abstract
A device includes a controller configured to determine a first periodic priority function based on a first emitter signal periodicity of a first emitter type. The controller is also configured to determine a second periodic priority function based on a second emitter signal periodicity of a second emitter type. The controller is further configured to generate a scan schedule of a receiver system based on at least the first periodic priority function and the second periodic priority function.
Claims20
A device comprising:
- a controller configured to:
- determine a first periodic priority function based on a first emitter signal periodicity of a first emitter type;
- determine a second periodic priority function based on a second emitter signal periodicity of a second emitter type;
- and
- generate a scan schedule of a receiver system based on at least the first periodic priority function and the second periodic priority function, wherein the scan schedule includes a time sequence of scan slots;
- and
- for a particular scan slot of the scan schedule:
- determine a first priority based at least in part on a slot start time of the particular scan slot, a first emitter state, the first periodic priority function, a first base priority of the first emitter type, or a combination thereof;
- determine a second priority based at least in part on the slot start time, a second emitter state, the second periodic priority function, a second base priority of the second emitter type, or a combination thereof;
- and
- assign the particular scan slot to the first emitter type based at least in part on the first priority and the second priority.

A method comprising:
- determining, at a device, a first periodic priority function based on a first emitter signal periodicity of a first emitter type;
- determining, at the device, a second periodic priority function based on a second emitter signal periodicity of a second emitter type;
- generating, at the device, a scan schedule based on at least the first periodic priority function and the second periodic priority function, the scan schedule including a time sequence of scan slots, wherein the scan schedule includes a time sequence of scan slots;
- for a particular scan slot of the scan schedule:
- determining a first priority based at least in part on a slot start time of the particular scan slot, a first emitter state, the first periodic priority function, a first base priority of the first emitter type, or a combination thereof;
- determining a second priority based at least in part on the slot start time, a second emitter state, the second periodic priority function, a second base priority of the second emitter type, or a combination thereof;
- and
- assigning the particular scan slot to the first emitter type based at least in part on the first priority and the second priority;
- and
- performing, at the device, a scan of a first frequency range during the particular scan slot, the first frequency range associated with the first emitter type.
