Spectral reuse transceiver-based aggregation of disjoint, relatively narrow bandwidth (voice) channel segments of radio spectrum for wideband RF communication applications

Patent number: 7920538

Abstract: A bandwidth usage control methodology uses the clear channel detection and frequency agile functionality of a spectral reuse transceiver to effectively ‘aggregate’ disjoint user channels into an overall bandwidth, the spectral extent of which is at least sufficient to meet a high bandwidth requirement (such as, but not limited to the transmission of data/video), that cannot be realized by a conventional, single channel radio.
