Abstract
Method and apparatus for resolving conflicts between the transmission or reception of disparate information over disparate beams transmitted or received by more than one base station. Simultaneous transmissions or receptions from a multiplicity of base stations carrying disparate messages on the same frequency are allowed. In certain pager-related embodiments, method and apparatus are provided for determining which subscriber units are accessible by any given beam, for determining the interference among beams, and/or for allocating transmission times for messages for various beams to support multiple simultaneous disparate transmissions or receptions, while ensuring that all subscriber units requiring service will get good quality of service in terms of signal to noise ratio, signal to interference ratio, and latency.
