HIGH POWER SHORT MESSAGE SERVICE USING TDMA FRAMES

摘要

A method and system for transmitting short data messages in a control stationbased TDMA radiocommunication system. According to exemplary embodiments, selected TDMA frames are assigned as message frames, and one or more data slots from each message frame are assigned to transmitter/receivers. Data messages can be encoded and transmitted multiple times, at an increased power level, from a control station to a transmitter/receiver over the appropriate data slots in each message frame. The selected TDMA frames are preferably slow associated control channel frames.
