Abstract:
A method of channel access for a radio device in an asynchronous channel hopping wireless network. A backoff time is set from an Interference Avoidance Delay plus a random backoff time for transmissions from the radio device. For initial frame transmissions, an initial value for a number of backoffs (nb) and initial number of preamble detection backoffs (npdb) is set. After waiting for expiring of the initial backoff time and provided a current npdb_value<a predetermined maximum npdb value, a first CCA is performed on the radio device's receive (Rx) channel, and a value for npdb is incremented following a failure. A second CCA is performed on a target radio device's Rx channel, wherein a value for nb is incremented following a failure. Provided a not busy is determined in the second CCA the radio device transmits a frame on the target radio device's Rx channel.

Claim (Index 2):
The method of  claim 1 , wherein said first radio device includes a processor having an associated memory, and wherein said first radio device has a channel hopping aware channel access and retransmission algorithm that provides said method which is implemented in hardware including digital logic or is implemented by code in said memory run by said processor.
