Method of creating and utilizing diversity in a multiple carrier communication system

摘要: In many cellular systems, reusing spectrum bandwidth, creates problems in boundary regions between the cells and sectors where signal strength received from adjacent base stations or sector transmissions of a single station may be nearly equivalent. The invention new type diversity, referred to as multiple carrier diversity by utilizing carriers, assigning different power levels each frequency at station, and/or offsetting antennas. cell coverage areas can set so minimize eliminate overlap frequencies. Mobile nodes traveling throughout system exploit detecting carriers selecting use non-boundary based on other criteria order improve performance. Boundary may, but need not be, identified excluded consideration for wireless terminal.
