摘要： A method of operating a radio communication system in which secondary stations use dedicated time slots to request services from a primary station. A secondary station wishing to request a service sends a request in every time slot allocated to it until it receives an acknowledgement from the primary station. The primary station can use combining techniques on multiple time slots to identify the presence or absence of a request from a secondary station with improved accuracy.

摘要： A method of operating a radio communication system uses a random access channel to enable a secondary station to transmit a message to a primary station. The secondary station transmits a preamble to the primary station. After successful receipt of the preamble the primary station transmits a control channel including power control information to instruct the secondary station to adjust the output power of its transmitter. This method ensures that the secondary station transmits at a sufficient power for the message to be received successfully by the primary station, while minimizing interference generated by the transmission.

摘要： In a radio communication system having a primary station and a plurality of secondary stations, the power of uplink and downlink channels between the primary station and a secondary station is controlled in a closed loop manner by each station transmitting power control commands to the other station. In response to these commands the receiving station adjusts its output power in steps. By combining a plurality of received power control commands before adjusting its output power the receiving station may emulate the ability to use a smaller power control step size than its minimum, thereby improving performance under certain channel conditions. In one embodiment when the required power control step size is less than the minimum step size of a particular station, that station processes a group of power control commands to determine whether to adjust its output power by its minimum step size. In an alternative embodiment the power control step size is fixed when the combining algorithm is used. The invention is applicable to power control in both primary and secondary stations.

摘要： A radio communication system has a random access channel for the transmission of data (214) from a secondary station to a primary station. Such a channel is intended for use by secondary stations having data (214) to transmit to a primary station while not actually engaged in a call. A problem with known systems of this type is that a secondary station requesting access also specifies which of a plurality of resources it wishes to access. If that resource is busy access is denied, even if other suitable channels are available. In the present system allocation of a channel is performed by the primary station when acknowledging (206,210) a secondary station's access attempt (202,208), thereby eliminating wasted attempts. In one embodiment the primary station also periodically broadcasts a short message indicating the availability of channels for access attempts.

摘要： A terminal configured to receive data from a broadcast station that may simultaneously participate in a wireless network via transmissions to a wireless base station. The terminal determines time periods when data of interest to the terminal will be broadcast and schedules transmissions to the base station to avoid these time periods, thereby avoiding the transmissions preventing reception of the data of interest. The time periods may be determined amongst other means from scheduling information transmitted by the broadcast station.

摘要： A radio communication system a primary station and a secondary station operating according to two (or more) two-way communication modes. An uplink and/or a downlink communication channel is present for the first mode, but only one of an uplink and a downlink channel is present for the second mode. Modifications to the protocols of the first and second modes enable the traffic for an absent communication channel of one mode to be carried by the corresponding channel of the other mode.

摘要： A device with a display is operable in at least two modes, a first mode in which display data is provided to the screen for viewing in a first orientation and a second mode in which display data is provided to the screen for viewing in a second, orthogonal, orientation. In the first mode, the display data fills the screen, and in the second mode the display data comprises two images for filling the screen. The aspect ratio for at least one of the two images in the second mode can then be the same as for the image in the first mode.
