Abstract:
1. A method for operating a GSM mobile radio system, comprising: managing radio channels for connection-oriented services by base stations; providing radio channels for packet-oriented services by predefinable base stations; emitting a signal including information concerning a reference time from at least one transmitter, which is allocated to a reference time generator; receiving the signal including the information concerning the reference time by the predefinable base stations, which are allocated to radio cells in which packet-oriented services are available; and synchronizing time slots of the radio channels for packet-oriented services, in each case independently with reference to the reference time, the radio channels provided for packet-oriented services via a radio interface between the relevant base station and the allocated subscriber stations, wherein for first carrier frequencies which communicate with the radio channels for connection-oriented services, a cell-related frequency repetition factor is selected which is higher than a cell-related frequency repetition factor for second carrier frequencies which communicate with the radio channels for packet-oriented services.
