1. A method for improving performance of a transmission system used for communicating a plurality of signal types over a plurality of communication channels extending between at least one transmitter and at least one receiver, the method comprising:

  • selecting at least one performance criterion indicative of signal quality at the at least one receiver;

    associating each of the plurality of signal types with a corresponding one of the plurality of communication channels so as to define a plurality of available signal-to-channel maps;

    evaluating the selected criterion for each of the plurality of associated signal types and communication channels in a particular signal-to-channel map;

    storing a lowest value of the selection criterion for the particular signal-to-channel map;

    repeating the steps of evaluating and identifying for each of the plurality of available signal-to-channel maps; and

    selecting the signal-to-channel map based on the stored values.
