Abstract

See full text

A base station synchronized Time Division Multiple Access (TDMA) System with a discontinuous control channel carrier is disclosed. Control channels are planned in a time reuse, overlaying the ordinary frequency reuse. Different base stations are allocated different timeslots for control channel transmissions. The control channels are allocated timeslots in a slot hopping fashion, such that transmissions from different base stations are detected by only monitoring one timeslot. Thus, MAHO measurements are possible on all neighbors, and no traffic allocation will continuously coincide with control channel transmissions from certain base stations.
