Abstract
According to an aspect of an example, an access point (AP) may comprise a transceiver configured to receive, at the AP from a backhaul modem, a downlink signal including a signaling aid and a backhaul frame. The AP may comprise a processing device configured to: identify, at the AP, a signaling aid in the downlink signal to detect a downlink backhaul frequency channel; and determine, based on the signaling aid, one or more operating frequencies for the AP, wherein the operating frequencies do not include the backhaul frequency channel.
Claims20
An access point (AP), comprising:
- a processing device configured to:
- detect, at the AP, a backhaul transmission received from a backhaul modem;
- identify, at the AP, one or more backhaul frequency channels present in the backhaul transmission;
- compute, at the AP, one or more complementary backhaul frequency channels based on the one or more backhaul frequency channels;
- and
- compute, at the AP, one or more operating frequency channels, wherein the one or more operating frequency channels do not include:
- the one or more backhaul frequency channels and the one or more complementary backhaul frequency channels;
- and
- a transceiver configured to:
- transmit, from the AP to a wireless device, a signal using the one or more operating frequency channels.
An access point (AP), comprising:
- a transceiver configured to:
- receive, at the AP from a backhaul modem, a downlink signal including a backhaul frame and a signaling aid;
- and
- a processing device configured to:
- identify, at the AP, a signaling aid in the downlink signal to detect a downlink backhaul frequency channel;
- and
- determine, based on the signaling aid, one or more operating frequencies for the AP, wherein the operating frequencies do not include the downlink backhaul frequency channel.
A backhaul modem, comprising:
- a processing device configured to:
- compute, at the backhaul modem, a signaling aid configured for detection by an access point (AP);
- encode, at the backhaul modem, the signaling aid in combination with a backhaul frame;
- and
- send, from the backhaul modem for transmission to the AP, a downlink signal including the backhaul frame and the signaling aid to a transceiver;
- and
- the transceiver configured to transmit the downlink signal including the backhaul frame and the signaling aid to the AP.
