Abstract:
1. A system, comprising: a first transmitter configured to transmit a forward link signal during a first period of time; a second transmitter configured to transmit said forward link signal during said first period of time, a second period of time following said first period of time, and a third period of time following said second period of time, wherein during said first period of time said first and second transmitters simultaneously transmit said forward link signal with said first carrier frequency, and wherein during said second period of time said second transmitter transmits said forward link signal while gradually changing its carrier frequency from said first carrier frequency to a second carrier frequency, and wherein said first transmitter does not transmit said forward link signal during said second and third periods of time; and a third transmitter configured to transmit said forward link signal with said second carrier frequency during said third period of time, wherein during said third period of time said second and third transmitters simultaneously transmit said forward link signal with said second carrier frequency, and wherein said third transmitter does not transmit said forward link signal during said first and second periods of time, wherein said first transmitter is in a first base station of a wireless network, said third transmitter is in a second base station of said wireless network, and said second transmitter is in one of said first and second base stations.
