Recognition scheme for moderating wireless protocols
First Claim
1. A wireless network collision rectification device used to resolve collisions between data exchange protocols comprising a first protocol and a second protocol which operate using overlapping communication frequencies, the device comprising:
- a monitoring component, which receives a plurality of signal transmissions and generates a collision signal indicative of frequency-overlapping signal transmissions between the first and second protocols;
a modeling component, which accepts the collision signal and produces a characteristic waveform which identifies a plurality of component parts of the collision signal corresponding to the first and the second protocols; and
a separation component, which isolates one or more of the plurality of component parts of the collision signal by resolution of the characteristic waveform and recovers one or more of the isolated component parts for subsequent transmission using at least one of the protocols.

Abstract
Wireless communication networks utilize various communication protocols to exchange data between wireless network devices. Overlapping communication frequencies between data exchange protocols present a collision and interference problem when data transmissions are transmitted using similar timing and frequency characteristics during wireless transit. A device and method for receiving and separating collision signals during transit in a wireless communication network where overlapping communication frequencies coexist is described to significantly reduce the loss of data and information caused by interference and colliding transmission signals.
