Patent ID: 7050415

Claim:
A wireless network comprising a radio network controller and a plurality of terminals, wherein at least one of said radio network controller and one of said plurality of terminals is configured for: transmitting transport blocks formed by packet data units of a logic channel over a transport channel to which a transmission time interval is assigned that comprises at least one radio frame and which transport channel is active when the beginning of its transmission time interval and that of a radio frame correspond, forming at least a transport format combination, which combinations denote the transport blocks to be transmitted over each transport channel, forming a reduced number of transport format combinations by selecting, for each logic channel, a number of transport format combinations which permit the highest number or more than the highest number of available packet data units to be transmitted, while taking stored packet data units into account of already considered logic channels which are also mapped onto the same transport channel, and selecting from the reduced number of transport format combinations the transport format combination that contains the lowest number of transport blocks and does not include inactive transport channels.
