Abstract
A wireless control system uses wireless communications that include a plurality of channels and that are shared between a plurality of wireless communication devices. The wireless control system generates and transmits a first control message that allows first access to one of the channels for one of the wireless communication devices. The wireless control system waits a period of time based on a rate of control message transmissions. In response to an expiration of the period of time, the wireless control system generates and transmits a second control message that allows second access to the one of the channels for another one of the wireless communication devices.
