Abstract
Abstract A method for transmitting information in a digital radio system, whereby the information are digitally coded block-by-block at the transmission side, and whereby the blocks are transmitted in channels, with each block being divided into a plurality of further blocks. Subsequently, each further block is transmitted over the digital radio system in a channel of a multi-channel composed of a plurality of channels. The transmission expediently occurs in channel-coded fashion with attachment of redundancy and is interleaved.

Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 21
Claim 1
Independent Claim
110 words
A method for transmitting information in a digital radio communication system, comprising the steps of: digitally coding information items assigned to a subscriber of the digital radio communication system block-by-block at a transmission side, and wherein each block is divided into a plurality of further blocks; transmitting each further block via the digital radio communication system in respective channels of a multi-channel composed of a plurality of channels, said channels being time slots of a time slot frame of a time-division multiplex system; and at a reception side of the digital radio communication system, combining and outputting said further blocks transmitted in the time slots of the time slot frame.
Claim 2
Independent Claim
110 words
A method for transmitting information in a digital radio communication system, comprising the steps of: digitally coding information items assigned to a subscriber of the digital radio communication system block-by-block at a transmission side, and wherein each block is divided into a plurality of further blocks; transmitting each further block via the digital radio communication system in respective channels of a multi-channel composed of a plurality of channels, said channels being time slots of a time slot frame of a time-division multiplex system; and at a reception side of the digital radio communication system, combining and outputting said further blocks transmitted in the time slots of the time slot frame.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
47 words
A method according to claim 1 including the step of designing the digital radio communication system as a global system of mobile communication where base stations receive and mobile stations transmit in a first band and base stations transmit and mobile stations receive in a second band.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim
44 words
A method according to claim 1 including the step of operating the digital radio communication system as a mobile radio telephone system with time division multiple access where mobile radio telephone subscribers are differentiated by different time slots in a time division multiplex system.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim
43 words
A method according to claim 1 including the step of allocating a separate physical channel to each time slot serving as a channel of the multi-channel, wherein the information items are resolved into sub-blocks, are filled with auxiliary bits and are channel coded.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim
63 words
A method according to one of the claim 1, including the step of allocating a separate physical channel to each time slot serving as a channel of the multi-channel, wherein the information items are resolved into sub-blocks, are supplemented by redundancy for error recognition or error correction and are channel coded, and which is allocated to a time slot of a multi-time slot.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim
35 words
A method according to claim 1, including the step of collecting the information items to be transmitted block-by-block, channel coding them, resolving them into sub-blocks, and allocating them to the time slots of the multi-channel.
Claim 8
Dependent Claim
17 words
A method according to claim 1 wherein channels forming the multi-channel each respectively comprise the same structure.
Claim 9
Dependent Claim
23 words
A method according to claim 7, wherein the channels each respectively comprise a training sequence, control bits, auxiliary bits and a guard period.
Claim 10
Dependent Claim
18 words
A method according to claim 1 wherein the channels are logical channels of a mobile radio telephone system.
Claim 11
Dependent Claim
17 words
A method according to claim 1 wherein the channels respectively forming a multi-channel lie on one frequency.
Claim 12
Dependent Claim
21 words
A method according to claim 1 wherein channels after each time slot frame the channels are allocated to a different frequency.
Claim 13
Dependent Claim
27 words
A method according to claim 11, wherein the channels after each timeslot frame lie on the different frequency according to a predetermined algorithm having predetermined starting conditions.
Claim 14
Dependent Claim
25 words
A method according to claim 12, including the step of defining starting conditions before a transmission between a mobile station and a base station controller.
Claim 15
Dependent Claim
24 words
A method according to claim 12, wherein the channels after each time slot frame lie on the different frequency according to a predetermined sequence.
Claim 16
Dependent Claim
50 words
A method according to claim 1 including the step of generating a multiple of frames in a transmission; resolving the frame into sub-blocks; supplying each sub-block to a channel, with each channel occupying a timeslot; forming a multi-channel of these timeslots; and distributing the multi-channel over a plurality of timeslots.
Claim 17
Dependent Claim
18 words
A method according to claim 15, including the step of employing the remaining channels for a voice transmission.
Claim 18
Dependent Claim
93 words
An arrangement for transmission of information in a digital radio communication system, comprising: a transmission side of the digital radio communication system digitally coding block-by-block information items assigned to a subscriber of the digital radio communication system and which are to be transmitted in channels; said transmission side having means for dividing each block into a plurality of further blocks and for allocating each further block to time-slots of a time-slot frame formed of a plurality of channels; and a reception side of the digital radio communication system for recovering the transmitted blocks.
Claim 19
Dependent Claim
93 words
An arrangement for transmission of information in a digital radio communication system, comprising: a transmission side of the digital radio communication system digitally coding block-by-block information items assigned to a subscriber of the digital radio communication system and which are to be transmitted in channels; said transmission side having means for dividing each block into a plurality of further blocks and for allocating each further block to time-slots of a time-slot frame formed of a plurality of channels; and a reception side of the digital radio communication system for recovering the transmitted blocks.
Claim 20
Dependent Claim
96 words
A mobile station for transmission of information in a digital radio communication system, comprising: a transmission side of the mobile station for digitally coding information items assigned to a subscriber of the digital radio communication system block-by-block; and said transmission side in the mobile station having means for dividing each block into a plurality of further blocks and for allocating each further block to respective time-slots of a time-slot frame composed of a plurality of time-slots and for transmitting the further blocks in the time-slots for reception at a reception side where the blocks are recovered.
Claim 21
Dependent Claim
96 words
A mobile station for transmission of information in a digital radio communication system, comprising: a transmission side of the mobile station for digitally coding information items assigned to a subscriber of the digital radio communication system block-by-block; and said transmission side in the mobile station having means for dividing each block into a plurality of further blocks and for allocating each further block to respective time-slots of a time-slot frame composed of a plurality of time-slots and for transmitting the further blocks in the time-slots for reception at a reception side where the blocks are recovered.
