    Abstract: An approach is disclosed for synchronization of frequency and/or phase in a full duplex network. The method may comprise sending a timing beacon over a single full duplex radio channel from a timing master to a timing slave; receiving the timing beacon over the single full duplex radio channel at the timing slave; sending a retransmitted beacon over the single full duplex radio channel from the timing slave to the timing master; and sending a delta of the timing beacon and the retransmitted beacon from the timing master to the timing slave. The beacon may contain a timestamp. The retransmitted beacon may include a delay calculation. A hybrid analog/digital self-interference cancellation system may be used at the timing master or the timing slave. The method may also include simultaneously sending and receiving the synchronization information over the single full duplex radio channel.

    Abstract: A centrally controlled dynamic frequency selection (DFS) mechanism is defined that uses a historical analytical database to define DFS hop patterns, which allows for a better probability of picking a non-interfering channel but also meets the performance requirements of the mesh and satisfying the timing constraints of DFS. A method for performing dynamic frequency selection (DFS) is disclosed, comprising: receiving, at a gateway, measurement reports from a radio access node regarding observed utilization of a 5 GHz radio frequency band shared with a plurality of radio access nodes; determining, based on the received measurement reports, a frequency hop pattern at the gateway; and sending the frequency hop pattern from the gateway to each of the plurality of radio access nodes, thereby enabling compliance with DFS regulations using a centralized gateway.
