Abstract

See full text

A method allows the transmitter to change transmission to a better channel in order to minimize transfer interference. In general, the transmitter will monitor all RF channels and tag the data frames with a preferred channel ID. Upon reception of a tag within a given data frame indicating a change in preferred transmission channel, the receiver will commence listening on the new channel. To avoid transmission lapses, the transmitter may continue to transmit on the old channel for a predetermined amount of time or number of data frames to allow the receiver enough time to switch channels without losing any frames.
