A communication device ( ) receives a first portion of an information packet via a primary communication resource ( ). During a time period otherwise allocated for receiving a second portion of the information packet, the communication device ( ) determines the signal quality of one or more other communication resources. The communication device then requests retransmission of the second portion of the information packet.

Communication device and method for determining the signal quality of communication resources in a communication system

A method utilizes a training monitoring algorithm to control when full training of a transmitter of a shared communication system that utilizes dynamic channel allocation occurs. Full training of the transmitter occurs during an initial transmission slot of a training interval that is used to request allocation of fixed communication resources of the communication system or when operating conditions of the transmitter, such as power and frequency, change. The duration of the training interval is dynamically controlled by manipulation of full-power and cut-back power training interval counters.
