1. A method of transmitting data on cells of a network, the method comprising:
determining whether a first channel on a first cell is occupied; and
when it is determined that the first channel on the first cell is occupied for at least a predetermined period, transmitting the data on a second channel on a second cell,
wherein the predetermined period is less than or equal to a maximum allowable latency for the data, minus a switching time for switching to the second cell, minus a transmission time for the data on the second cell.
