Abstract

See full text

Embodiments of a system and method for managing transceiver resources in a wireless network are generally described herein. In some embodiments, a transceiver resource manager (MXRM) dynamically adapts the number of transceivers to an offered load. A node computes the number of transceiver it needs based on queue depth and queue usage. MXRM then shares the number of the transceivers to be requested, A, with next-hop neighbors. A node assigns X transceivers such that X is the maximum of their own A value and the highest A value they receive if they are next-hop targets. MXRM processes requests for additional transceivers from nodes and previous-hop neighbors such that the sender-receiver pair assigns a compatible number of transceivers. MXRM is also used to drive frequency assignments to increase capacity along the traffic flows. Therefore, MXRM adapts transceiver assignments to the traffic paths.
