    Abstract: 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.

    Abstract: 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.

    Abstract: A method of transmitting a downlink, coding scheme CS-1 RLC/MAC control message from a BSS to an EGPRS MS (61), and receiving and detecting the CS-1 RLC/MAC control message in the MS. The BSS places in an MCS-1 radio block, a CS-1 RLC/MAC control block identical to a coding scheme CS-1 RLC/MAC control message excluding the MAC header octet. The BSS also places a coding scheme CS-4 stealing bit code word in the radio block using legacy stealing bit values and positions. The CPS field (26) of the block header (25) indicates that the radio block contains a CS-1 RLC/MAC control message. The MS receives the radio block and detects the coding scheme CS-4 stealing bit code word. In response, the MS interprets the received radio block header to identify the CPS field. The MS determines from the CPS field that a CS-1 RLC/MAC control block has been received.

    Abstract: Flexibly configurable layer one transport channels produce radio blocks in response to communication information and extract communication information from radio blocks. Each transport channel can include an encoder or a decoder coupled to and cooperable with a data puncturer or a data repeater. An information source can produce for each transport channel first configuration information and second configuration information, wherein the first configuration information is indicative of how the associated transport channel is to be configured if a first modulation type is used for a current radio block, and wherein the second configuration information is indicative of how the associated transport channel is to be configured if a second modulation type is used for the current radio block. The physical layer can include a description information source that provides description information from which various configurations of the transport channels can be determined. The description information source provides the description information in the physical layer in response to further information which the description information source receives from a higher layer and which is indicative of a service request initiated by a communication network.

    Abstract: A network node (28) of a wireless telecommunication network (20) uses a first coding scheme (selected from plural possible coding schemes) for encoding of a point-to-multipoint (PTM) transmission carried to plural mobile stations (30) on a common downlink channel (32). The mobile stations (30) receiving the point-to-multipoint transmission on the common downlink channel (32) evaluate the link quality of the point-to-multipoint transmission. Feedback from the plural mobile stations (30) regarding the link quality of the point-to-multipoint transmission is provided to the network node (28) on a common uplink channel (36). A controller (48) at the network node (28) monitors information received on the common uplink channel for feedback regarding the link quality of the point-to-multipoint transmission. The controller (48) at the network node (28) uses the feedback to determine whether to change from the first coding scheme to a second coding scheme for the encoding of the point-to-multipoint transmission to the plural mobile stations (30).

    Abstract: First and second groups of mobile terminal communications in a cell are defined. A basic frequency hopping sequence for both groups is identified. An offset from the basic hopping sequence is determined for each mobile terminal communication in the first and second groups and is used along with the basic frequency hopping sequence to generate an assigned frequency hopping sequence for each mobile terminal. Some of the assigned frequency hopping sequences overlap such that a first communication from the first group and a second communication from the second group simultaneously use the same time-frequency radio resource during one hop in their corresponding assigned frequency hopping sequences. The first and second mobile terminal communications use a different time-frequency radio resource during another hop in their respective assigned frequency hopping sequence thereby varying the offset for each mobile terminal communication in the second group to improve interference diversity between the two groups for each hop.
