Abstract
Systems and methods for opportunistic radio frequency communications are provided which include the use of multiple antennas. Signal data from the antennas can be used to determine directions of incoming signals. Signal power in the direction of strongest signals can then be reduced by adjusting relative gains and phases of received signals. Reducing signal power of strong signals reduces the dynamic range of received signals and facilitates discovery of unused communication frequencies. Any unused frequencies can then be used or allocated as desired.
