Abstract: It is described a method for reporting, in a link quality report (53), link (54) quality information from a link quality report sending station (51) to a link quality report receiving station (52). The link quality report receiving station (52) is capable of using different modulation schemes for communicating to the link quality report sending station (51). Depending on a priority of each of at least two of said different modulation schemes, at least one of said at least two modulation schemes are selected for inclusion of corresponding link (54) quality information in said link quality report (53). According to an embodiment, the priority of each of said at least two modulation schemes is determined depending on a link (54) quality parameter value.

Abstract: Techniques are presented for repetition on both uplink and downlink Slow Associated Control Channel (SACCH) channels. For instance, an exemplary method is disclosed that is performed by a mobile node. The method includes receiving from a network node a first block of data over a downlink SACCH channel, and storing the first block of data. The method also includes, subsequent to receiving the first block of data, receiving from the network node a second block of data over the downlink SACCH channel. The method further includes attempting to decode the second block of data. The method additionally includes, in response to a failure in the attempt to decode the second block of data, combining into a combination the second block with the stored first block of data. The method also includes attempting to decode the combination.

Abstract: There is disclosed a TRAU frame comprising, in sequence, a set of control bits, a set of class A bits, a set of error check bits, and a set of Class B bits, the set of control bits including at least one bit identifying the location of the other sets of bits in the frame.

Abstract: The invention relates to channel coding in the air interface in telecommunication systems, and specifically to methods used in selecting coding methods. The network utilizes information reported by a power control channel quality reporting procedure, such as reporting procedures used for Enhanced Power Control or Fast Power Control, for controlling the TFC selection.
