Abstract: The invention can provide a movable wireless network that is capable of operating in a multiple network environment. The movable wireless network has a coverage area and includes a detector that detects a network event when the coverage area of the movable wireless network overlaps with a coverage area of another wireless network. The invention can further include a controller that changes an operational state of the movable wireless network when the detector detects the network event so that the movable wireless network is able to operate within the coverage area of the other wireless network.

Abstract: The present application relates to a technique for more efficiently performing operations, administrative and maintenance (OA&M) on components in a mobility network. In one aspect, the need for a dedicated channel or resource to perform such operations on system components, is eliminated. For example, in the case of repeaters, the existing control channel is used for performing OA&M. Additionally, address information is put into the message on the control channel to uniquely communicate with desired system components.
