Abstract
A wireless communication system operating in the presence of the periodic noise such as from a microwave oven, the communication system, wherein the wireless communication system including at least two wireless communication stations with transceiver in microwave communication with each other, each such station detects periodic microwave signals for producing a signal indicating the duration of a periodic microwave signal's quiescent period; and controls the transmitter to send a data packet which includes data and the duration of quiescent periods in the periodic microwave signal; and adjusts the amount of data sent in an data packet as a function of the duration of the quiescent period.
