Radio communications system has gateway unit in connection path between network elements supporting connection-oriented and packet-oriented links

摘要

The communications system has a connection provided between a network element (Z1) for connection-oriented links and a second network element (Z2) for packet-oriented links via a gateway unit (IWU1). Different link protocols are used for the connections between each network element and the gateway unit, the protocols differing by an information element containing an address for the packet-oriented link between the gateway unit and the second network element. An Independent claim for an operating method for a radio communications system is also included.
