Abstract
A method for selecting transmission channels in a time data multiple access protocol and to a communication system using the method. Based on indications of transmission quality of each channel stored during a time window, one channel is selected that has the best current transmission quality indication position relative to those stored during the time window. This can be used to take advantage of independent variations in the quality of transmission of each channel while providing equitable access to the transmission resource.
