Abstract
A mobile device (110) and combined method (400/500) for frequency hopping is provided. The frequency hopping can combine a receive scanning (400) with a scanning (500) for a transmit frequency for providing automated channel selection. The transmit scanning can include determining whether a push to talk (PTT) is pressed (501), and selecting a transmit frequency from a set of frequency channels (130) based on a measured activity (150) on the set of frequencies. If the PTT (240) is within the hang-time (504), a frequency that is currently active during the hangtime can be selected, else, a frequency having a lowest activity count (506) can be selected for transmitting a communication in response to the PTT.

15. A mobile device for transmit frequency hopping, comprising:
-
a receiver for performing a receive scanning on a set of frequency channels; a transmitter coupled to the receiver for transmitting a communication on a frequency identified by the receiver; and a processor coupled to the transmitter and receiver for combining the receive scanning with the transmitting for providing automated channel selection, wherein on detecting a push-to-talk (PTT), the processor selects a transmit frequency from the set of frequency channels based on a measured activity on the set of channels. - View Dependent Claims (16, 17, 18, 19)
