METHOD FOR INCREASING THE ADDRESS SPACE FOR MOBILE TERMINALS IN A WIRELESS NETWORK

摘要

A method, in a base station subsystem (10), of allocating radio resources to mobile stations (20) in a wireless communication system (1) involves the base station subsystem (10) assigning a respective Temporary Block Flow (TBF) to each mobile station (20) in a cell (40) in the communication system (1), and then assigning to each TBF a Temporary Flow Identity (TFI), at least one Packet Data Channel (PDCH), and an Uplink State Flag (USF) if the TBF is an uplink TBF. The base station subsystem (10) then selects different training sequences from a plurality of available training sequences and assigns a respective different selected training sequence to two or more TBFs wherein these two or more TBFs share the same assigned Temporary Flow Identity (TFI), the same assigned Packet Data Channel (PDCH), and/or the same assigned Uplink State Flag (USF) if the TBF is an uplink TBF.
