Abstract
Abstract In order to implement burst acquisition control of reference stations over a traffic terminal(s) in the TDMA system, the reference station opens a synchronization window at the nominal position of the traffic terminal. The reference station checks to determine if a burst transmitted from the traffic terminals is detected within said synchronization window. If the burst is detected within said synchronization window, then the burst acquisition control is omitted. Otherwise, the burst acquisition control is implemented.

Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 6
Claim 1
Independent Claim
98 words
A method of implementing burst acquisition control of reference stations over at least one traffic terminal in the Time Division Multiple Access system, comprising the steps of: (a) allowing the reference station to open a synchronization window at the nominal position of the traffic terminal; (b) checking to determine if a burst transmitted from the traffic terminal is detected within said synchronization window; (c) omitting the burst acquisition control if the burst is detected within said synchronization window; and (d) implementing the burst acquisition control in the event that the burst is not detected within said synchronization window.
Claim 2
Independent Claim
98 words
A method of implementing burst acquisition control of reference stations over at least one traffic terminal in the Time Division Multiple Access system, comprising the steps of: (a) allowing the reference station to open a synchronization window at the nominal position of the traffic terminal; (b) checking to determine if a burst transmitted from the traffic terminal is detected within said synchronization window; (c) omitting the burst acquisition control if the burst is detected within said synchronization window; and (d) implementing the burst acquisition control in the event that the burst is not detected within said synchronization window.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
112 words
A method as claimed in claim 1, wherein said burst acquisition control includes the steps of: (a) allowing the reference station to open an acquisition window at an acquisition control position, and allowing the reference station to transmit acquisition control information to the traffic terminal, the traffic terminal transmitting the burst in response to said acquisition control information; and (b) detecting the burst within said acquisition window, controlling the traffic terminal to transmit the burst at the nominal position of said traffic terminal, allowing the reference station to open the synchronization window, and terminating the burst acquisition control when the burst transmitted from said traffic terminal is detected within said synchronization window.
Claim 4
Independent Claim
236 words
A method of implementing burst acquisition control of reference stations over at least one traffic terminal in the Time Division Multiple Access system, comprising the steps of: (a) setting a timer counting over a predetermined time period; (b) allowing the reference station to transmit acquisition control information to the traffic terminal, the traffic terminal transmitting a burst in response to said acquisition control information; (c) checking to determine if the predetermined time period has expired; (d) in the event that the predetermined time period has not expired, allowing the reference station to open an acquisition window at an acquisition control position, and checking to determine if said first burst is detected within said acquisition window; (e) in the event that said first burst is not detected within said acquisition window, going back to step (b), and in the event that said first burst is detected allowing the reference station to implement the burst acquisition control; (f) in the event that the predetremined time period has expired, allowing the reference terminal to open a synchronization window at the nominal position of the traffic terminal; (g) checking to determine if the burst is detected within the synchronization window; (h) in the even that said second burst is detected within the synchronization window, omitting the burst acquisition control; and (i) in the event that said second burst is not detected, going back to Step (a) after resetting the timer.
Claim 5
Independent Claim
236 words
A method of implementing burst acquisition control of reference stations over at least one traffic terminal in the Time Division Multiple Access system, comprising the steps of: (a) setting a timer counting over a predetermined time period; (b) allowing the reference station to transmit acquisition control information to the traffic terminal, the traffic terminal transmitting a burst in response to said acquisition control information; (c) checking to determine if the predetermined time period has expired; (d) in the event that the predetermined time period has not expired, allowing the reference station to open an acquisition window at an acquisition control position, and checking to determine if said first burst is detected within said acquisition window; (e) in the event that said first burst is not detected within said acquisition window, going back to step (b), and in the event that said first burst is detected allowing the reference station to implement the burst acquisition control; (f) in the event that the predetremined time period has expired, allowing the reference terminal to open a synchronization window at the nominal position of the traffic terminal; (g) checking to determine if the burst is detected within the synchronization window; (h) in the even that said second burst is detected within the synchronization window, omitting the burst acquisition control; and (i) in the event that said second burst is not detected, going back to Step (a) after resetting the timer.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim
112 words
A method as claimed in claim 3, wherein the burst acquisition control includes the steps of: (a) allowing the reference station to open an acquisition window at an acquisition control position, and allowing the reference station to transmit acquisition control information to the traffic terminal, the traffic terminal transmitting the burst in response to said acquisition control information; and (b) detecting the burst within said acquisition window, controlling the traffic terminal to transmit the burst at the nominal position of said traffic terminal, allowing the reference station to open 'the synchronization window, and terminating the burst acquisition control when the burst transmitted from said traffic terminal is detected within said synchronization window.
