M ETHOD FOR RADIO CHANNEL ASSIGNMENT IN AN ELECTRONIC DISPLAY SYSTEM - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240023147 titled 'M ETHOD FOR RADIO CHANNEL ASSIGNMENT IN AN ELECTRONIC DISPLAY SYSTEM
Simplified Explanation
The invention is a method for radio channel assignment in a system of electronic displays. The system includes a data processing device, communication stations, and electronic displays. Each communication station is designed to use a radio channel defined by the data processing device for communication with allocated electronic displays. The method involves the following steps:
- Defining the radio channel to be used based on radio channel activity data transmitted by the communication station. The activity data describe detected radio activity in the channel.
- The communication station transmits the radio channel activity data after establishing an initial connection with at least one electronic display using a radio channel.
- The radio channel activity data describe detected radio activity after the initial connection has been established.
Potential applications of this technology:
- This method can be used in systems with multiple electronic displays, such as digital signage networks or public display systems.
- It can be applied in environments where radio communication is necessary for transmitting data to electronic displays, such as retail stores, airports, or stadiums.
Problems solved by this technology:
- Efficient allocation of radio channels: The method allows for the dynamic assignment of radio channels based on the detected activity, ensuring optimal utilization of available channels.
- Minimizing interference: By monitoring radio channel activity, the method helps identify channels with high activity and avoids assigning them to communication stations, reducing the chances of interference.
Benefits of this technology:
- Improved communication reliability: By avoiding channels with high activity, the method reduces the likelihood of signal interference, leading to more reliable communication between communication stations and electronic displays.
- Efficient use of resources: The dynamic assignment of radio channels based on activity data ensures that channels are allocated optimally, maximizing the utilization of available resources.
- Scalability: The method can be applied in systems with varying numbers of communication stations and electronic displays, allowing for scalability and adaptability to different environments.
Original Abstract Submitted
the invention relates to a method for radio channel assignment in a system of electronic displays, the system comprising a data processing device, communication stations and electronic displays, and each communication station being designed to use a radio channel defined by the data processing device for radio communication with electronic displays allocated thereto, the method comprising the following method steps, specifically: defining the radio channel to be used on the basis of radio channel activity data which are transmitted by the communication station to the data processing device and describe a detected radio activity in the radio channel in question, characterised in that the communication station transmits the radio channel activity data at a time after the communication station in question has established an initial connection with at least one of the electronic displays by using a radio channel, wherein the radio channel activity data describe a detected radio activity after said initial connection has been established.
