Abstract
A first communication channel is used by a communication unit for communicating with a base site. The first communication channel has an inbound link and an outbound link. The communication unit determines that congestion is present on the communication channel. The communication unit determines its transmission requirements and whether the first communication channel is capable of supporting its transmission requirements. If the first communication channel is not capable of supporting the transmission requirements of the communication unit, the communication unit locates a second communication channel capable of supporting its transmission requirements, and switches to the second communication channel to communicate with the base site.
