Transmitting Data Over a Radio Network

Abstract

Data is transmitted over a radio network, in which a fixed transceiver transmits distance data to a network data processor and the fixed transceiver is required to wait after a transmission to maintain network compatibility. Bulk distance data is collected for a plurality of mobile transceivers during a ranging time slot. The bulk distance data is transmitted in a transfer time slot 3201, while maintaining network compatibility. Fixed time of flight is shown and transmission power is controlled to avoid automatic gain control at a receiver. Distance values may be averaged from each pair of distanced derived from each available pair of fixed transceivers when ranging a specific mobile transceiver.
