Abstract
A method of operation in a communications device is disclosed. The method of operation includes obtaining interference information associated with a plurality of channels, including age of the interference information, and selecting one of the plurality of channels, based at least in part on the interference information and their age. Communications devices, subsystems, and systems equipped to operate in the above described manner are also disclosed.
Claims28
A method of operation in a communications device, comprising:
- obtaining interference information associated with a plurality of channels, including age of the interference information;
- and
- selecting one of the plurality of channels, based at least in part on the interference information and their age.
An apparatus comprising:
- a radio interface;
- and
- a controller, the controller coupled to the radio interface and designed to operate in conjunction with the radio interface to:
- obtain interference information associated with a plurality of channels, including timing of the interference information, and
- select one of the plurality of channels, based at least in part on the interference information and their age, subsequently inferred from their timing.
A system comprising:
- one or more substantially omnidirectional antenna(e);
- and
- a subsystem coupled to at least one of the one or more substantially omnidirectional antenna(e), the subsystem including
- a radio interface, and
- a controller, the controller coupled to the radio interface and designed to operate in conjunction with the radio interface to
- obtain interference information associated with a plurality of channels, including timing of the interference information, and
- select one of the plurality of channels, based at least in part on the interference information and their age, subsequently inferred from their timing.
A controller readable medium comprising:
- a storage medium;
- and
- a plurality of instructions stored in the storage medium, the instructions designed to enable an apparatus to
- obtain interference information associated with a plurality of channels, including age of the interference information, and
- select one of the plurality of channels, based at least in part on the interference information and their age.
