ABSTRACT:
In a skywave adaptable communication network, the time required to initiate communications between two transceivers can often be an important factor where the propagation characteristics of signals at various frequencies may bary drastically with time. The present invention not only improves upon known prior art by accepting the first frequency that it hears as a communication frequency when two nodes are attempting to communicate from a known list of probe frequencies to be transmitted at known times, it initially uses predictive frequencies in probe signal format during the time that would later be used for traffic information after link-up has occurred where the predictive frequencies may be based on algorithms, experience or whatever. Once link-up has occurred, the probe signals are used to allow the system to then adaptively change to better quality signals as these better quality signals are received, analyzed and compared with present working frequency signals.
