Abstract

The present invention can be used to modify hopping sequences and families of hopping sequences. In one embodiment the present invention includes modifying a family of hopping sequences by eliminating a resource from a plurality of resources used by the family of hopping sequences, eliminating a hopping sequence from the family of hopping sequences, and creating a new family of hopping sequences by replacing the eliminated resource in each remaining hopping sequence using the eliminated hopping sequence. Embodiments of the present invention may further include repeating eliminating a resource, eliminating a hopping sequence, and creating a new family of hopping sequences, until the new family of hopping sequences uses a desired number of resources.
