Radiotelephony network with multi-carrier packet data transmission

摘要

The present invention relates to a radio telephony network (1) supporting at least one radio link (6) for a packet data transmission service and comprising a plurality of network controllers (RNC). Each network controller (RNC) is connected via an interface (I ub ) to at least one base radio station (B-node) supporting at least a first radio access, said at least one base radio station (B-node) supervising at least one macrocell (5a) and providing said packet data transmission service on at least one link of said radio channel (6) by using a second radio access of a multi-carrier type. Each network controller (RNC) comprises an access control sub-level (MAC) including a frame protocol (RNC-OFDM-FP) for controlling the transport of multi-carrier radio signals within said network controller (RNC) or between said network controller (RNC) and said at least one base radio station (B-node) connected to it.
