Abstract
A wireless communication system. The wireless communication system includes a first wireless communication network communicating at a first range of frequency. The wireless communication system also includes a second wireless communication network that is communicatively coupled to the first wireless communication network. Additionally, the second wireless communication network communicates at a second, different range of frequency. Further the first communication network geographically overlaps with a select portion of the second communication network.
Claims31
A wireless communication system comprising:
- a first wireless communication network communication at a first range or frequency;
- and
- a second wireless communication network, communicatively coupled to the first wireless communication network, communicating at a second, different range of frequency, wherein the first communication network geographically overlaps with a select portion of the second communication network such that the select portion is selected in response to a density of subscribers of the first and second, wireless communication networks.
A communication system comprising:
- a first communication network communication at a first range of frequency;
- and
- a second communication network, communicatively coupled to the first communication network, communicating at a second, different range of frequency, wherein the second communication network is geographically within a select portion of the first communication network such that the select portion is selected in response to a density of subscribers of the first and second communication networks.
A wireless communication system comprising:
- a first base station communicating at a first range of frequency in a first geographical region;
- and
- a number of additional base stations, communicatively coupled to the first base station, communicating at a second, different range of frequency in a plurality of additional geographical areas, wherein the first geographical area overlaps with the number of additional geographical areas such that each of the number of additional base stations communicates with a higher density of subscribers than the first base station.
A wireless communication system comprising:
- a Multi-channel Multi-point Distribution Service (MMDS) network having an MMDS base station, the MMDS base station broadcasting within the MMDS frequency spectrum to a number of subscribers within an MMDS cell;
- a number of Local Multi-point Distribution Service (LMDS) networks, communicatively coupled to the MMDS network, having a number of LMDS base stations, the number of LMDS base stations broadcasting within the LMDS frequency spectrum to a number of subscribers within a number of LMDS cells;
- and
- a number of third wireless networks, communicatively coupled to the MMDS network and the number of LMDS networks, having a number of third wireless base stations, the number of third wireless base stations broadcasting within a third frequency spectrum to a number of subscribers within a number of third wireless cells, wherein the third frequency spectrum is lower than the MMDS and LMDS frequency spectrums, and wherein the number of LMDS cells and the number of third wireless networks are geographically located within the MMDS cell based on a density of subscribers within the MMDS cell.

- selecting a select portion of a second geographical region in response to a greater density of a second set of subscribers in the second geographical region;
- and
- communicating data across the second geographical region at a second, different range of frequency with the second set of subscribers, wherein the first geographical region is within the select portion of the second geographical region.
2 more elements
A method of wireless communication comprising:
- communicating data across a first geographical region at a first range of frequency with a first set of subscribers;
- selecting a select portion of the first geographical region in response to a greater density of a second set of subscribers in the select portion than a density of the first set of subscribers;
- and
- communicating data across a number of second geographical region at a second, different range of frequency with the second set of subscribers, wherein the number of second geographical regions geographically overlap with the select portion of the first geographical region.
1 more element
A method of wireless communication system deployment, comprising:
- placing a first base station within a first geographical region, wherein the first base station is capable of performing wireless communication with a first set of subscribers within the first geographical region;
- determining a second geographical region having a second set of subscribers that have a higher subscriber density than the first set of subscribers;
- and
- placing a second base station within the second geographical region, the second base station communicatively coupled to the first base station, wherein the second base station is capable of performing wireless communication with the second set of subscribers and wherein the first geographical region overlaps the second geographical region.
