SENSOR-BASED AUGMENTATION OF BLOCKAGE RECOVERY

摘要

A method (100) for improving long-term blockage recovery of a communications signal is disclosed. The method includes monitoring a blockage source using at least one application specific-sensor (102, 110, 120). Time spent on the blockage source is ascertained. Information obtained from the application-specific sensor may be combined with the ascertained time spent in the blockage source to predict a likely blockage recovery interval.
