Claim Text:
1. A method for implementation by one or more data processors forming part of at least one computing system, the method comprising: receiving, by at least one data processor associated with a transceiver, data characterizing a first signal transmitted in an orthogonal frequency-division multiplexing (OFDM) system by a transmitter with one or more transmit antennas through an in-band channel and received by a receiver of the transceiver and with a plurality of receive antennas, the first signal comprising one or more in-band pilot pulses; predicting, using at least one data processor and when the transceiver is in receive mode, a channel quality for an out-of-band channel based on the received data and a cross-correlation between an in-band channel and one or more out-of-band channels, the channel quality prediction used by the transceiver in transmit mode to transmit data over the out-of-band channel; and providing, using at least one data processor, data characterizing the predicted channel quality for the out-of-band channel.
