Method and corresponding system for spectrum management
Methods and corresponding systems for spectrum management featuring advanced frequency-allocation planning and advanced interference avoidance. The invention discloses access points that transmit directionally and assigning a predefined channel in a predefined direction, in order to reduce interference between closely located access-points.
1. A method for spectrum-management in a wireless network of wireless access points comprising:
(a) determining an overlapping area between a common channel of at least two access-points by receiving an indication of interference from one or more wireless stations, wherein said indication comprises at least one retransmit request and
(b) placing a dynamic null in the direction of said overlapping area by using a smart antenna.
