Abstract:
(Amended) A method for allocating telecommunication channels of different channel capacity in a hybrid telecommunication system, comprising the steps of:a) providing in the hybrid telecommunication system, for the transmission of system messages,a1) a first telecommunication subsystem having a first telecommunication channel and a first information transmission capacity, anda2) a second telecommunication subsystem having a second telecommunication channel and a second information transmission capacity and having a third telecommunication channel and a third information transmission capacity;b) providing in the second telecommunication subsystem, for transmitting the system messages and for transmitting subsystem messages of the second telecommunication subsystem, a first telecommunication interface and a second telecommunication interface which are connected to one another via at least one of the second telecommunication channel and the third telecommunication channel;c) tying the second telecommunication subsystem, as local information transmission loop, into the first telecommunication subsystem via the first and second telecommunication interfaces;d) providing that the first information transmission capacity is lower than the second information transmission capacity and higher than the third information transmission capacity;e) transmitting system messages, when an amount of information to be transmitted on the first telecommunication channel does not exceed an amount of information that is transmittable on the third telecommunication channel, via the first telecommunication channel and the third telecommunication channel; andf) transmitting system messages when an amount of information to be transmitted on the first telecommunication channel exceeds an amount of information which is transmittable on the third telecommunication channel, via the first telecommunication channel and the second telecommunication channel.
