Adaptive control channel initialization operations for autonomous dynamic spectrum access systems
First Claim
Patent Images
1. A method for establishing communications between a plurality of nodes, comprising:
- determining a set of frequencies used to search for neighbor nodes, wherein each of the plurality of nodes determines the set of frequencies autonomously based at least in part on spectrum awareness data; and
performing an adaptive control channel initialization operation using at least one frequency from the set of frequencies to detect zero or more neighbor nodes and if one or neighbor nodes are detected, establishing an adaptive control channel with one or more of the detected neighbor nodes.

Abstract
Establishing communications between a plurality of nodes includes determining a set of frequencies to search for neighbor nodes, and performing an adaptive control channel initialization operation to detect zero or more neighbor nodes. If one or neighbor nodes are detected, an adaptive control channel with one or more of the one or more detected neighbor nodes is established.
