Method of transmitting time-critical scheduling information between single network devices in a wireless network using slotted point-to-point links
First Claim
1. Method of transmitting timing control information, especially time-critical scheduling control information, between network devices in a wireless network using slotted communication links between said network devices for data transmission, comprising providing a data sequence defined by a header portion and a payload portion, wherein the header portion contains at least an address code of a network device and said payload portion contains said time-critical scheduling control information, transmitting said data sequence via a specified channel in accordance with the contents, wherein said data sequence containing said timing control information is contained in a baseband packet and is transmitted in a time defined contact slot.

Abstract
Timing control information, especially scheduling information, is transmitted between single network devices in a wireless network. Timing control information is usually time-critical information since communication parameters may be changing rapidly in wireless networks. The invention provides a method to transmit the time-critical and up-to-date timing control information to a recipient just-in-time.
