Abstract
A multi-dimensional zone selection method in a communication device is provided. The communication device comprises: a radio transceiver; a memory storing a plurality of zones arranged in a two-dimensional matrix, each of the plurality of zones indicative of a respective subset of one or more communication channels; an input interface; and, a controller. The controller is configured to: receive, using the input interface, navigation input to navigate the two-dimensional matrix to indicate a selected zone of the plurality of zones; receive, using the input interface, selection input indicating a selected communication channel of the respective subset of the one or more communication channels indicated within the selected zone; and cause the radio transceiver to communicate over the selected communication channel. In some implementations, the communication device further comprises an electronic display and the controller is further configured to control the electronic display to render the two-dimensional matrix.
