Abstract:
1. A method of controlling radio resources assigned for communication between a mobile terminal and a cellular radio infrastructure, the infrastructure comprising at least one radio network controller and at least one fixed transceiver, the method comprising: determining a distribution of energy over time for at least one communication channel representing multiple propagation paths of at the least one communication channel between the at least one fixed transceiver and a mobile station; transmitting information indicative of the distribution of energy over time for the at least one communication channel to the radio network controller; processing the information indicative of the distribution of energy over time for the at least one communication channel at the radio network controller to determine parameters to be used for the at least one communication channel between the at least one fixed transceiver and the mobile station, wherein the step of processing the information indicative of the distribution of energy over time for at the least one communication channel to determine parameters to be used for the at least one communication channel comprises processing the information indicative of the distribution of energy over time for the at least one communication channel to determine a format to be used for the at least one communication channel between the at least one fixed transceiver and the mobile station, wherein the format is defined by a dedicated physical data channel (DPDCH) bits per slot parameter, comprising bits per slot in a first data channel and bits per slot in a second data channel.
