Systems and methods for transmitting electromagnetic energy over a wireless channel having sufficiently weak measured signal strength
First Claim
Patent Images
1. A system comprising:
- a detector that is configured to detect a first signal strength that is associated with a first wireless communications channel; and
a transmitter that is configured to radiate electromagnetic energy over the first wireless communications channel responsive to the detector having detected that the first signal strength is sufficiently weak,wherein the detector is further configured to control the transmitter to perform a handoff to a second wireless communications channel having a signal that is weaker than a signal of the first wireless communications channel.

Abstract
A signal strength that is associated with a first wireless communications channel is detected. Electromagnetic energy is transmitted over the first wireless communications channel in response to the signal strength being sufficiently weak. A determination is made whether a handoff should be made to a second wireless communications channel having a signal that is weaker than a signal of the first wireless communications channel. Related systems and methods are described.
