Abstract
Controller provides signals to controlled nodes and includes first channel interface coupled to first controlled node and second channel interface coupled to second controlled node. Controller discovers which channel interface is coupled to which controlled node by communicating first measurement request signal from first channel interface toward first controlled node; communicating second measurement request signal from second channel interface toward second controlled node; communicating power level request signal from a channel interface to first/second controlled nodes; receiving set of power levels from both first/second controlled nodes in response to power level request signal; determining that first controlled node is more strongly signal-coupled with first channel interface than second controlled node when first power level received from first controlled node is higher; and determine that second controlled node is more strongly signal-coupled with first channel interface than first controlled node when first power level received from second controlled node is higher.
