Methods and systems for adaptive communication

摘要

One embodiment relates to a method for transitioning from an initial data rate utilizing an initial transmission variable to a new data rate in a multi-carrier communication system. In the method, a first function or a second function is selected to calculate a modified transmission variable, wherein the first function or second function is selected as a function of relative priorities of first and second communication parameters. The new data rate is implemented by modification of transmission variable. Other methods and systems are also disclosed.
