The invention relates to a method in a mobile network for resolving a Temporary Block Flow, a TBF, in a wireless network including one or more mobile stations exchanging data with a base station system. The packet data is transmitted by means of one or more RLC/MAC blocks each associated with the TBF. The TBF is identified by means of an Temporary Flow Identity, a TFI, and associated to an MS. The inventive method is applicable in a wireless communication system with an extended TFI addressing space. The method comprises steps of receiving a RLC/MAC block and retrieving a first TFI in the RLC/MAC header. The TFI is compared to an assigned TFI. The capability for the associated MS to resolve TBFs based on extended TFI addressing is determined. If the received first TFI matches assigned TFI and represents a comprehensive TFI for the associated MS, the payload of the RLC/MAC block is decoded. When the first TFI matches assigned TFI value and is identified as a code point to an eTFI, at least a predetermined field of the RLC data block is decoded and an extended TFI, eTFI, is retrieved. The eTFI is compared with an assigned eTFI. Following a match, the payload of the RLC data block is decoded. The procedure is repeated for further RLC/MAC block associated with the TBF until the TBF is resolved.The invention also relates to a mobile station and a base station system used to resolve a TBF according to the inventive method.
摘要:
A method in a mobile station (120) for enabling more than eight mobile stations to share one uplink Packet Data Channel (PDCH) in a GSM network (100) is provided. A combination of Uplink State Flag values in a set of two or more downlink radio blocks is received. The received Uplink State Flag values of the combination are jointly interpreted. Packet data are only transmitted (706; 1402) when an assigned combination of Uplink State Flag values has been received. Conventionally in GSM only a maximum of 8 unique mobile stations can share one PDCH using one timeslot (of eight conventionally available). By the combination of the USF values and joint interpretation thereof, more than 8 unique mobile station can share the same PDCH. Compatibility is also enabled with legacy mobile stations supporting only a single USF value.

An MS, for a GSM/EDGE network, arranged to, as a first alternative, use every 13th TDMA frame with an odd number as an idle frame which is used for neighboring cell measurements and every 13th TDMA frame with an even number as a PTCCH, a Packet Timing Control Channel. The MS is arranged to, as a second alternative, use every 13th TDMA frame with an odd number as a PTCCH and every 13th TDMA frame with an even number for neighboring cell measurements. The MS is arranged to transmit information to the network that the MS supports the use of the second alternative, and to receive information from the network about which of these two alternatives that the MS should use.

The user equipment 12a and 12D comprises a radio transmitter 76 arranged to transmit data packets to the receiver 71 of the communication network entity 16 over the radio interface on the uplink channel 11 and a receiver 77 arranged to receive data packets transmitted from the transmitter 72 of the communication network entity 16 on the downlink channel 13. The user equipment 12a and 12b further comprises means 78 for analysing said received data packets as described above and in conjunction with FIG. 6. Thus, while there have been shown and described and pointed out fundamental novel features of the invention as applied to a preferred embodiment thereof, it will be understood that various omissions and substitutions and changes in the form and details of the devices illustrated, and in their operation, may be made by those skilled in the art without departing from the spirit of the invention. For example, it is expressly intended that all combinations of those elements and/or method steps which perform substantially the same function in substantially the same way to achieve the same results are within the scope of the invention. Moreover, it should be recognised that structures and/or elements and/or method steps shown and/or described in connection with any disclosed form or embodiment of the invention may be incorporated in any other disclosed or described or suggested form or embodiment as a general matter of design choice. It is the intention, therefore, to be limited only as indicated by the scope of the claims appended hereto. Expressions such as “including”, “comprising”, “‘incorporating”, “consisting of”, “have”, is used to describe and claim the present invention are intended to be construed in a nonexclusive manner, namely allowing for items, components or elements not explicitly described also to be present. Reference to the singular is also to be construed to relate to the plural and vice versa. Numerals included within parentheses in the accompanying claims are intended to assist understanding of the claims and should not be construed in any way to limit subject matter claimed by these claims.

A Mobile Station, an MS (700), for a GERAN system, the MS (700) being arranged (705, 710, 750, 730) to receive bursts from a Base Transceiver Station, a BTS, each of said bursts being modulated with a modulation type chosen from one of a number of modulation types. The MS is arranged (730, 740) to identify bursts from the BTS which may comprise information for the MS by identifying if a Training Sequence Code, a TSC, which is comprised in received bursts corresponds to a TSC which the MS has been assigned, the MS being arranged (705, 710, 750, 730, 740) to be assigned a first and a second TSC to be used for at least one of said modulation types.
摘要:
A wireless communication network having received-priority access requests on an access channel issues an implicit reject response on a grant channel, such as a flag or other value embedded in an explicit access grant or explicit access reject response. The implicit reject response applies to some or all outstanding low-priority access requests. At the expiration of a terminal's grant channel monitoring window, if it has detected an applicable implicit reject response but not an explicit response, the terminal will refrain from transmitting another access request for a predetermined or configurable duration. The implicit reject response may comprise a flag, or a value that implicitly rejects only a fraction of the outstanding low-priority access requests. The implicit reject response may comprise a duration that the terminal must wait prior to transmitting another access request, and may direct the terminal to directly monitor the grant channel without transmitting a subsequent access request.
