Method for selecting a channel coding scheme for use in initiating communications based on channel coding schemes used for communications in the cell, and corresponding instructions stored on a storage medium and apparatus

摘要

The present invention relates to the selection of a channel coding scheme for communications in a wireless communication system. In the described arrangement, a cell-based channel coding scheme is selected from a plurality of available channel coding schemes based on the channel coding schemes used in the cell. The stored selected channel coding scheme can then be used on initiation of a communication with the subscriber device.
