Abstract:
A method for data transfer in a digital mobile communications system, in which methoduser data is handled in layers according to protocols, in one layer of said layers user data is transferred over a physical radio channel between a mobile station and a fixed mobile communications network in radio blocks, for the transfer of said one layer a payload of a size comprising check bits connected with the performing of the transfer and transfer bits available for the transfer of the user data is formed in the radio block, each radio block is channel coded using a coding method and the size of said payload is dependent on the coding method, wherein in the transfer bits of a radio block to be coded using at least said coding method, user data is transferred in a first part of the transfer bits and fill bits are transferred in a second part so that, for the transfer of user data, such a number of transfer bits is chosen which is divisible by eight.
