METHODS OF TRANSMITTING AND RECEIVING DATA
First Claim
1. A method of transmitting data from a first communication device to a second communication device, comprising:
- receiving a first signal on a first frequency channel from the second communication device;
generating data, wherein the data comprises a reception status indicating whether there is interference on the first frequency channel due to a second signal transmitted by a third communication device;
transmitting a third signal on a second frequency channel to the second communication device, wherein the transmission is carried out for a predetermined duration;
receiving a fourth signal on the second frequency channel from the second communication device; and
transmitting the data generated on the second frequency channel to the second communication device.
