  • Patent number: 6320854
    Abstract: A method for allocating radio channels in a radio communications system having timeslots includes the steps of allocating the radio channel for the downlink direction to a mobile station as a function of a channel allocation pattern which indicates the transmission power levels for the timeslots. The mobile station corrects the allocation of the radio channel as a function of an interference pattern which indicates the interference power levels in the timeslots. The allocation process results in the transmission power level being distributed as uniformly as possible between the timeslots which are provided for a connection from the radio station in the downlink direction, wherein the allocation process is a function of the occupancy of the timeslots in accordance with the channel allocation pattern.

  • Patent number: 6317598
    Abstract: A device for assigning radio transmission channels administers the radio transmission channels within a radio zone and optimizes the utilization of the radio transmission channels. The radio transmission channels for communications links from/to a mobile station are assigned to at least one base station. The device for assigning the radio transmission channels includes a signal evaluation device, a memory device, and a control device. The memory device stores matrices with one or more parameters. The assignment of the radio transmission channels advantageously changes dynamically as a function of the variation of the parameters in the matrices. A method for administering and assigning radio transmission channels is also provided.

  • Patent number: 6301236
    Abstract: A transmission, without modification of the transmission frequency, switches over the radiation characteristic for the radio signals corresponding to the time protocol of the message transmission, and the chronologically successive radio signals of a traffic relation are decorrelated to one another. In this way, the signal extinguishing that arises in a receiver due to multipath propagation can be reduced. The transmission apparatus is in particular constructed as a base station in GSM mobile radiotelephone networks.
