  • Radio communication system
    Patent number: 6668168
    Abstract: A radio communication system has means for enabling the control channels associated with a data channel transmitting packet data with a low duty cycle to be switched to a dormant state or interrupted entirely. This reduces the excessive overhead that such control channels represent on a data channel only using a small proportion of the available channel capacity.

  • Radio communication system
    Publication number: 20020114291
    Abstract: A radio communication system comprises a secondary station having a communication channel with a primary station for the transmission of data packets from the primary station to the secondary station. In response to receipt of a data packet, the secondary station transmits a combined acknowledgement and quality parameter signal (402) to the primary station. The signal (402) indicates whether the data packet was received correctly and the value of the quality parameter enables the primary station to select transmission parameters for further data transmissions. A range of formats for the combined signal are possible.
