Abstract:
An adaptive multiband access communication system and method for a network of downhole components located in a wellbore are disclosed. Low noise regions of a communication spectrum are identified and frequency channels within the low noise regions are assigned to the downhole components. Communications on the assigned channels are monitored for quality and adjustments are dynamically made to frequency channel assignments if the quality does not satisfy an acceptance criterion.

Claim (Index 10):
A communication system for communicating with downhole components in a wellbore that extends from a surface to a region of interest, comprising:\n a transmission medium deployed in a wellbore, the transmission medium comprising a downlink and a multiband access uplink; a plurality of downhole components coupled to the transmission medium, wherein the downhole components are assigned respective frequency channels on the multiband access uplink in which to transmit communication signals carrying data measured by the downhole components; a receiver assembly to receive the communication signals from the downhole components; and a transmitter assembly to transmit frequency channel assignments to the downhole components on the downlink, wherein the frequency channel assignments are determined dynamically by analyzing quality of the communication signals received in each frequency channel, determining whether the quality meets a quality criterion, and adapting assignment of frequency channels to the downhole components if the quality does not meet the quality criterion.
