Abstract:
1. A method for efficiently transmitting data modulated onto carrier frequencies, the method comprising: transmitting data modulated onto one or more carrier frequencies by a first transmitting device to a user equipment; detecting that a received signal property of a carrier frequency of the one or more carrier frequencies used for transmission is below a minimum quality threshold; receiving identifiers of one or more helping transmitting devices within range of the user equipment; selecting, responsive to said detecting and said receiving, a helping transmitting device of the one or more helping transmitting devices to transmit the data modulated onto the carrier frequency; transmitting, responsive to said selecting, data assigned to the carrier frequency to the selected helping transmitting devices, wherein the data is to be modulated onto the carrier frequency and transmitted by the selected helping transmitting device, and wherein the first transmitting device and the selected helping transmitting device transmit the data modulated onto the carrier frequency nearly simultaneously to form a localized single frequency network.
