1. A method of transmitting data packets from a terminal of a broadband radio communication system, the terminal being capable of transmitting radio signals which may interfere with radar pulses, the radar pulses being transmitted with one or more pulse repetition intervals, the method comprising, for each of a plurality of transmission cycles in a transmission period:
receiving data at a data interface of the terminal; buffering the received data at the terminal; enabling transmission of radio signals comprising the received data on expiry of a respective transmission repetition interval for the cycle, the transmission repetition interval being an interval from the start of a previous transmission, wherein the transmission repetition intervals are controlled to reduce a proportion of the transmission period for which transmission may occur at an allowed pulse repetition interval of the radar; checking for the presence of radar pulses during a respective wait period for each cycle whilst the terminal is not transmitting radio signals comprising received data packets; and if radar pulses are present, inhibiting the transmission of radio signals which may interfere with the radar pulses. |
