`
`ABSTRACT
`(57)
`An approach for selecting sets of communications channels
`involves determining the performance of communications
`channels. A set of channels is selected based on the results
`of performance testing and specified criteria. The participant
`generates data that identifies the selected set of channels and
`provides that data to other participants of the communica(cid:173)
`tions network. The participants communicate over the set of
`channels, such as by using a frequency hopping protocol.
`When a specified time expires or monitoring of the perfor(cid:173)
`mance of the channel set identifies poor performance of the
`set of channels, the participant selects another set of chan(cid:173)
`nels for use in communications based on additional perfor(cid:173)
`mance testing. By selecting channels based on the initial
`performance testing and performance monitoring, the com(cid:173)
`munications network adaptively avoids channels with poor
`performance.
