Abstract
An apparatus is disclosed for continuous load optimization of wireless communication networks by making use of statistical data about both the communication medium characteristics and the characteristics of messages that users desire to send over the network. The network comprises a network control base station ( ) and a plurality of slave stations ( ). One or more applications ( ) are associated with each station which are used to generate the messages in digital format. Each application is coupled to a protocol stack ( ) that defines the required characteristics of the data and changes to the data that occur during the communication process. An interface ( ) is coupled to the layers of each protocol stack ( ) to allow tuning of the message characteristics to maximize successful transmission with minimum message latency.
