Abstract (en)

[origin: WO0035222A1] This invention discloses a method for utilization of a first plurality of channels by a second plurality of transmitters, the method includes the steps of defining a third plurality of transmitter subsets such that at least one of the second plurality of transmitters is included in each transmitter subset; assigning at least one channel from among the first plurality of channels to each transmitter subset, to be shared among the transmitters in that transmitter subset, such that less than all of the first plurality of channels are assigned to the third plurality of transmitter subsets, thereby defining a reservoir of channels which have not been assigned to any transmitter subset, and sharing the channels in the reservoir of channels between all of the second plurality of transmitters. A system for utilization of a first plurality of channels by a second plurality of transmitters is also disclosed.
