Systems and methods for frequency hopping in wireless communication systems

摘要

A method may include determining whether events associated with at least one of a plurality of wireless devices are active. The method may then include sending a first command to each of the plurality of wireless devices when the events are not active, such that the first command changes a first frequency to a second frequency. The method may also include sending a second command to each wireless device of a portion of the plurality of wireless devices when the events are active, such that the second command changes the first frequency to the second frequency. Here, each wireless device of the portion of the plurality of wireless devices is not associated with the events. The method may then include changing a third operation of a first wireless device associated with the events from the first frequency to the second frequency after the events are not active.

主权项

1. A method, comprising:
determining, via a first wireless device of a plurality of wireless devices, a first amount of time remaining before a next scheduled frequency hop time; determining, via the first wireless device, a second amount of time for a downstream data transmission between the first wireless device and a second wireless device of the plurality of wireless devices to complete; fragmenting, via the first wireless device, a first data packet of the downstream data transmission into a first data packet fragment and a second data packet fragment when the second amount of time is greater than the first amount of time; sending, via the first wireless device, the first data packet fragment to the second wireless device using a first frequency; changing the first frequency of the first wireless device to a second frequency at the next scheduled frequency hop time; sending, via the first wireless device, the second data packet fragment to the second wireless device at the second frequency; determining, via the first wireless device, a third amount of time for an upstream data transmission between the first wireless device and a third wireless device of the plurality of wireless devices to complete; and receiving, via the first wireless device, a third data packet fragment from the second wireless device using the first frequency when the third amount of time is greater than the first amount of time, wherein the third data packet fragment comprises a portion of a second data packet of the upstream data transmission.
