Abstract:
Systems and methods for allocating frequency channels across a radiofrequency (RF) mesh network, including identifying pairs of radio groups having a propensity for interference; allocating frequency channels to each of the plurality of radio groups; and deploying the allocated frequency channels to the plurality of radio groups, using a central routing server including an automated frequency planning module that executes an RF allocation algorithm, wherein the RF allocation algorithm determines the frequency channel to assign to each radio group and deploys the determined frequency channel to each radio group of the plurality of radio groups.

Claim (Index 12):
A method for allocating frequency channels across a radiofrequency (RF) mesh network, comprising:\n identifying pairs of radio groups having a propensity for interference from among a plurality of radio groups, wherein each radio group comprises at least two radios communicatively coupled by an associated wireless link, based on at least one of the geographic position, heading, and beam shape associated with each of the at least two radios of each radio group, and generating an interference propensity mapping based on the propensity for interference of each radio group with each other radio group; allocating frequency channels to each of the plurality of radio groups based on the interference propensity mapping; deploying the allocated frequency channels to the plurality of radio groups; and collecting interference metrics based on actual network traffic among the plurality of radio groups, updating the interference propensity mapping based on the collected interference metrics, and reallocating frequency channels in response to detecting an allocation trigger; wherein generating the interference propensity mapping comprises generating a graph of radio groups connected by edges, wherein an edge connects a pair of radio groups based on the propensity for interference associated with the pair, and wherein allocating frequency channels to each of the plurality of radio groups comprises:\n ordering the plurality of radio groups according to a number of edges connected to each radio group of the graph to generate an ordered list of radio groups; and \n sequentially assigning frequency channels to the ordered list of radio groups.
