Abstract

An apparatus (109) for and method of voting provides efficient use of communication resources (111, 112), while avoiding interference caused by other signal sources, particularly in a simulcast system. Although the same communication resource (111) is used for transmission on multiple base stations or repeaters (103, 105, 107, 113) at the same time in a simulcast system, the present invention provides way to achieve increased signal throughput without causing interference (213, 301) with desired signals (215, 211).
