Dynamic multi-patch based frequency division multiple access frequency assignment
First Claim
1. A radio transceiver module, comprising:
- first, second and third substrate transceivers operably disposed to communicate through a substrate using very high radio frequency signals; and
wherein the first substrate transceiver selects a first frequency based upon an expected multi-path peak region being generated that corresponds to a location of the second substrate transceiver; and
wherein the first substrate transceiver selects a second frequency based upon an expected multi-path peak region being generated that corresponds to a location of the third substrate transceiver; and
wherein the first substrate transceiver is operable to transmit the very high radio frequency signals at one of the first and second frequencies based upon whether the signals are being sent to the second or third transceiver.

Abstract
A radio transceiver device includes circuitry for radiating electromagnetic signals at a very high radio frequency both through space, as well as through wave guides that are formed within a substrate material. In one embodiment, the substrate comprises a dielectric substrate formed within a board, for example, a printed circuit board. In another embodiment of the invention, the wave guide is formed within a die of an integrated circuit radio transceiver. A plurality of transceivers with different functionality is defined. Substrate transceivers are operable to transmit through the wave guides, while local transceivers are operable to produce very short range wireless transmissions through space. A third and final transceiver is a typical wireless transceiver for communication with remote (non-local to the device) transceivers.
