Patent ID: 7095722

Claim:
A method with wireless base stations in centrally controlled radio systems, which systems transfer packets and guarantee service quality and comprise a controlling access point (AP), mobile terminals (MTs) and stations working as a forwarder mobile terminal (FMT) for the connection of a remote mobile terminal (RMT) not connected to the AP by radio for bidirectional communication between RMT and AP, the FMT maintaining both a connection to the AP and to the RMT by radio, characterized (a) in that a time-shifted partial frame structure is generated by the FMT based on a system-wide known frame structure of the AP, which partial frame structure is used by the FMT to control the transmission from the FMT to the RMT and back, while the partial frames transport signaling data, useful data and organization data about the structure of the partial frame for controlling the transmission between FMT and RMT to enable a communication between RMT and AP, and (b) in that the structure of the partial frame is so similar to the frame generated by the AP that an MT, which is designed for operation at an AP, can also serve as an RMT and permits the exchange of data between RMT and FMT.
