Abstract
A device receives a communication request for a time division multiple access (TDMA) communication. Upon receipt of the communication request, the device identifies a first communication channel that currently has at least one available TDMA slot and that is currently supporting a greatest number of active TDMA communications amongst a plurality of communication channels. Once the device identifies the first communication channel, the device allocates a first available TDMA slot for the TDMA communication on the first communication channel.
