Apparatus and method of scheduling channel allocation in dynamic TDMA frame
First Claim
1. A hardware arrangement for scheduling channel allocation in a dynamic TDMA frame for communications with a plurality of terminals and reflecting the scheduling results in a frame table, comprising;
- a shift register being used as the frame table, said shift register comprising a plurality of register units coupled in tandem, each of said register units being allocable to a channel for one of said plurality of terminals; and
a shift controller being coupled to said shift register, said shift controller controlling said shift register such as to write a new channel defining data into a given register unit and collectively shift a plurality of channel defining data respectively stored in a plurality of register units so as to make space for said new channel defining data at said given register unit.

Abstract
When channel allocation is scheduled in a dynamic TDMA frame for communications with a plurality of terminals and then the scheduling results are reflected in a frame table, a shift register is used as the frame table. The shift register comprises a plurality of register units coupled in tandem. Each of the register units is allocable to a channel for one of the plurality of terminals. A shift controller is coupled to the shift register, and controls the shift register such as to write a new channel defining data at a given register unit and collectively shift a plurality of channel defining data respectively stored in a plurality of register units so as to make space for said new channel defining data at said given shift register.

7. A method of scheduling channel allocation in a dynamic TDMA frame for communications with a plurality of terminals and reflecting the scheduling results in a frame table, comprising the steps of:
-
determining a given register unit among a plurality of register units which are coupled in tandem and are used as the frame table, each of said plurality of register units being allocable to a channel for one of said plurality of terminals; and
writing a new channel defining data into said given register unit and collectively shifting a plurality of channel defining data respectively stored in a plurality of register units so as to make space for said new channel defining data at said given register unit. - View Dependent Claims (8, 9, 10, 11)
