Abstract: A method, system and computer program product for the transmission of data from a transmitter to receiver. The present invention is directed to improving data transmission. To this end, the transmission of data is accelerated, and an inband-signaling of information is carried out on an MAC-layer plane, wherein the information is particularly relevant to the base station (BS).

Abstract: According to one exemplary embodiment, a communication terminal is provided which has a receiver and has a controller which is configured for controlling the receiver in such a manner that the receiver receives a part of first data from a first network communication facility of a first communication network by means of a first communication channel in a first part of a period in which the transmission of the first data by the first network communication facility overlaps the transmission of the second data by the second network communication facility, and that the receiver receives a part of the second data from the second network communication facility by means of a second communication channel during a second part of the period so that the first part of the period and the second part of the period do not overlap and so that the part of the first data which is received in the first part of the period meets a predetermined criterion.

Abstract: In a method for receiving synchronization signals of a mobile radio network, communication takes place with a mobile radio network via a dedicated communication link, by using a transmitting/receiving device for mobile radio signals, and synchronization signals of another mobile radio network are received during a transmission gap in the dedicated communication link by using the transmitting/receiving device, the transmitting/receiving device not being set up for receiving signals of the other mobile radio network independently of the dedicated communication link. A transmitting/receiving device for mobile radio signals is configured to carry out the method.

Abstract: In a method for requesting media replication in a collaborative communication session, a message is sent which specifies that a communication medium for a collaborative communication session, which is currently being transmitted to at least one terminal, should additionally be transmitted to at least one other terminal, with the at least one other terminal being indicated in the message as the recipient of the communication medium. In a method for assigning a communication medium for a collaborative communication session, a corresponding message is received, and the communication medium is assigned to the at least one other terminal as the recipient of the communication medium. The methods are carried out by appropriately designed apparatuses.

Abstract: In a method for assigning a control role for a collaborative communication session, a message is received which indicates, independently of a media transfer request for a collaborative communication session, that a control role for the collaborative communication session is intended to be assigned to at least one terminal which is specified by the message as a holder of a control role, and a control role for the collaborative communication session is assigned to the at least one terminal which is specified by the message as the holder of a control role. In a method for requesting a control role for a collaborative communication session, a message which corresponds to the received message is sent. The methods are carried out by appropriately designed apparatuses.

Abstract: According to an embodiment, a determining device for determining a transmission parameter for wirelessly transmitting energy (414) from a sending device (402) to a receiving apparatus (401) is provided, comprising: an authorization checking device which is configured to carry out an authorization (403, 404, 405, 406) in order to determine whether the receiving apparatus is authorized to receive energy from the sending device, a sending/receiving apparatus which is configured to send and receive messages (409, 410, 411) during a message exchange with the receiving apparatus in order to determine the transmission parameter (413); and a parameter determining device which is configured to determine the transmission parameter (413) based on the authorization and based on the message exchange, if the receiving apparatus is authorized to receive energy from the sending device.
