Automatic control channel planning in adaptive channel allocation systems
Patent 5732353 Issued on March 24, 1998. Estimated Expiration Date: April 7, 2015. Estimated Expiration Date is calculated based on simple USPTO term provisions. It does not account for terminal disclaimers, term adjustments, failure to pay maintenance fees, or other factors which might affect the term of a patent.
Methods and systems for allocating control channels in a radiocommunication system are disclosed. Control channels are each linked to a dedicated traffic channels such that when the dedicated traffic channel is allocated to a particular cell, so is its respective control channel. Implementation according to the present invention is independent of the particular ACA scheme used to determine traffic channel allocation.
