Abstract:
1. A system for increasing a payload in a time division multiple access frame, comprising: a transmitting device configured to transmit digital data bits having a reduced data bit width having a duration that is smaller by an integer factor N than a conventional WDCT bit width of a TDMA technology, wherein the transmitting device is configured to transmit the digital data bits in a frame structure of an RF duplex link, the frame structure comprising: an enhanced user data field having larger bit size by the integer factor N than a user data field size of a conventional frame of the TDMA technology, wherein the enhanced user data field comprises the integer factor N number of data fields compared to conventional TDMA technology, wherein each data field comprises data packets, wherein a first data packet and a copy of the first data packet are sent in consecutive frames, and wherein the enhanced user data field is configured to send N different data packets within a single frame; and a frame duration the same as a conventional WDCT frame of the TDMA technology, wherein a data payload transmitted over a duplex link having a first slot of a first slot size is larger by the integer factor N than a data payload of a conventional WDCT frame structure of the TDMA technology having the first slot size.
