  • Method of determining transmission time to transmit an information packet to a remote buffer
    Patent number: 5483671
    Abstract: A method at comparator (103) of determining the depth of remote buffer (107-109), by computing the difference between the current time and a next launch time, where the next launch time is the time at which a next information packet will be transmitted by the base station (104-106) on the radio channel. The next launch time is determined by the summation of, the time to transmit a previous information packet with error correcting information on the radio channel, and the launch time of a previous information packet. The method further includes maintaining the buffer depth between thresholds such that information packets will not be provided beyond a maximum threshold and filler packets will be provided when buffer depth is less than a minimum threshold.
