A selective hopping method for hit avoidance in a frequency hopping spread spectrum communication system utilizing an original hopping sequence, having a plurality of available channels for receiving signal packet traffic utilizing a plurality of receiving signal slots are disclosed. The plurality of available channels all are available for use in frequency hopping. The method includes the steps of dividing the plurality of available channels into a plurality of partitions; distributing the available channels in each of the plurality of partitions into a predetermined distribution; forming a partition sequence by assigning a predetermined number of channels to a plurality of selected receiving signal slot sets; generating a generated hopping sequence by partition mapping, in which the partition mapping is responsive to the partition sequence; and managing the receiving signal packet traffic, in which the receiving signal packet traffic is transmitted only in the selected receiving signal slot sets.
