METHOD OF ASSIGNING OPTIMAL CHANNEL IN MULTI-STATION RADIO COMMUNICATIONS SYSTEM

摘要

In a multi-station radio communications system wherein plural channels are accessible for communication between plural fixed stations and plural mobile units (viz., dynamic channel assignment) and wherein each of plural fixed stations selects a channel according to channel assignment priority data, the radio channels are grouped into a plurality of channel groups. The channels in each of the channel groups forms a numerically looped sequence of channels. The first channel of the numerically loop sequence in one channel group is different from the first channel of the numerically looped sequence in each of the other channel groups. Each of the plural fixed stations is set to select the channel having the highest priority or to select one of the first channel of the numerically looped sequence and a channel nearest to the first channel in the event that a plurality of channels have the same priority.
