1. A method for wireless access to a network by an isolated user, including the steps of:
- the isolated user transmitting a wireless signal intended to produce interference at an unknown node; and
, upon the such interference being detected by the unknown node, arranging access to the network for the isolated user; and
wherein the signal includes information concerning the isolated user'"'"'s receiver characteristics.

Abstract
Wireless access to a network 2 by an isolated user 1 includes the isolated user 1 transmitting a wireless signal intended to produce interference at nodes included in a group 3, 4 and 9 of nodes, that have access to the network 2. Upon the interference being detected by a member of one of the groups, and a link established between the isolated user 1 and the member of the group, access to the network 2 is arranged for the isolated user 1. In one method, the isolated user is unlicensed and seeks access to the network via a licensed part of the wireless spectrum.

- the isolated user transmitting a wireless signal intended to produce interference at an unknown node; and
- 23. A communications system comprising a plurality of groups of connected nodes, at least one member of each group having access to a common network, and wherein at least one member of each group includes a detector to detect interference arising from a signal transmitted by an isolated user requiring access to the network and to detect characteristics of the isolated user to enable a link to be established between the isolated user and the network.
