Abstract
This invention addresses a method of scanning and self organization that is programmed into the base station which then will automatically avoid mutual interference and move the use of radio channels from one base station to another to move network capacity to where it is needed through a process called “abandonment.
Claims4
A method for automatically organizing an interference avoiding radio frequency network of multiple base stations each capable of transmitting and receiving all channels of a radio frequency band and also having one or more sectors with each sector capable of transmitting and receiving multiple channels comprising:
- turning on one base station of said multiple base stations;
- then said base station scanning all channels with one sector of said one or more sectors;
- then said base station identifying all available channels in said one sector that are not being used by another base station of said multiple base stations;
- then said base station assigning available unused channels to said sector of said base station wherein the maximum number of available unused channels to assign is determined by dividing the number of channels of a radio frequency band capable of being transmitted and received by said base station by the number of said one or more sectors on said base station;
- and,
- said base station then repeating the scanning, identifying, and assigning of unused channels in each of the other sectors of said one or more sectors.
