A method for exploiting the diversity of a multi-carrier cellular system's frequency bands, for purposes of increasing network capacity, involves a base station transmitting a pilot signal on each frequency band to a plurality of mobile stations. Each mobile station measures the SIR of each pilot signal on the frequency bands, and this information is transmitted back to the base station. The base station may be configured to utilize this information in a number of manners, all of which are intended to increase channel capacity. For example, on each frequency band, the base station may transmit data signals only to those mobiles stations with the best signal quality on that frequency band. Additionally, the base station may transmit signals to one or more mobile stations across one or more frequency bands simultaneously, with transmissions on each band being adapted to the corresponding channel conditions.
