A PROTECTION SYSTEM FOR WIRELESS NLOS BACKHAUL
First Claim
1. A protection system, configured for switching between backhaul technologies for upholding a communication in a wireless backhaul network, comprising:
- a main node and a dependent node, wherein the main node and the dependent node are configured for communicating with each other via a backhaul channel; and
a switching unit configured for selecting a backhaul technology for a communication via the backhaul channel, wherein at least one of the main node and the dependent node are further configured for measuring a quality parameter of the backhaul channel, wherein the switching unit is further configured for switching the backhaul technology selected for the communication via the backhaul channel to a predefined backhaul technology dependent on the quality parameter measured.

Abstract
A protection system, configured for switching between backhaul technologies for upholding a communication in a wireless backhaul network, to a main node, to a dependent node, and a method for switching between backhaul technologies for upholding a communication. The protection system comprises a main node and a dependent node, wherein the main node and the dependent node are configured for communicating with each other via a backhaul channel, and a switching unit configured for selecting a backhaul technology for a communication via the backhaul channel, wherein at least one of the main node and the dependent node are further configured for measuring a quality parameter of the backhaul channel, wherein the switching unit is further configured for switching the backhaul technology selected for the communication via the backhaul channel to a predefined backhaul technology dependent on the quality parameter measured.
