Abstract: A data transport method in a telecommunications system is provided. The method comprises creating a traffic channel connection between two network elements in the telecommunications system, allocating data of a number of user entities for transportation over the virtual channel using overbooking, buffering data packets into separate buffers, according to the priority level of the packets, to wait for transport over the traffic channel, and multiplexing the data packets with determined priority levels into the virtual channel according to the priority level of the packets such that whenever higher priority level data packets are available, the higher priority level data packets are multiplexed into the virtual channel before lower priority level data packets. Additionally, formation of user data packets is controlled according to a filling degree of at least one of the buffers.

Abstract: A radio access network (RNC) assigns for a real-time media session a real-time access bearer that can be shifted between a dedicated channel state and a common channel state. The assignment is made in response to receiving an access bearer assignment message indicating that the real-time media session requires a real-time access bearer of that type. The media activity of the real-time access bearer is then monitored, and the access bearer shifts to the common channel state upon detecting media inactivity during the dedicated channel state, and shifts to the dedicated channel state upon detecting media activity during the common channel state.
