Call management in a TDMA system through variable packet formatting

A time division multiple access (TDMA) communications system (20) includes a first TDMA platform (22) for transmitting a call (32) over a circuit switched communication link (36) to a second TDMA platform (24). The call (32) exhibits a first signal type (84) and second signal type (86). A controller...

Zusammenfassung:A time division multiple access (TDMA) communications system (20) includes a first TDMA platform (22) for transmitting a call (32) over a circuit switched communication link (36) to a second TDMA platform (24). The call (32) exhibits a first signal type (84) and second signal type (86). A controller (42) establishes a capacity allocation (200) responsive to the first signal type (84) for the communication link (36). When the call (32) exhibits the first signal type (84), the first TDMA platform (22) transmits first packets (111) of the call (32) in a first packet format (113) using the capacity allocation (200), and when the call (32) exhibits the second signal type (86), the first TDMA platform (22) transmits second packets (140) of the call (32) in a second packet format (139) using the capacity allocation (200).
