First Claim
Patent Images
1. A method of producing a frequency hopping sequence, comprising:
- generating, by logic, a random number;
determining a next frequency in said sequence using said random number and one or more of a minimum separation, a channel number, and a number of channels; and
hopping to said next frequency.

14. A method, comprising:
-
sending or receiving data using a center frequency associated with a first channel number; determining a second channel number, wherein the second channel number is at least a predetermined number of channels away from said first channel number, and wherein the determination of the second channel number is in accordance with a uniform distribution scheme over a set of possible channel numbers; hopping from said center frequency associated with the first channel number to another frequency associated with the second channel number; and sending or receiving data using said another center frequency associated with the second channel number. - View Dependent Claims (15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20, 21, 22, 23, 24)

25. A system, comprising:
-
logic; and communication logic coupled to the logic; wherein the logic causes the communication logic to hop among multiple center frequencies and further causes the communication logic to transmit or receive data using said multiple center frequencies; wherein, with each hop, the logic selects a target center frequency that is separated from a previous center frequency by at least a minimum separation. - View Dependent Claims (26, 27, 28, 29, 30, 31, 32, 33, 34, 35, 36, 37)
