Synchronization method and system for transmitting voice data in a mobile communication system
First Claim
1. A method for synchronizing transmission/reception time for delay in transmission/reception of a data frame of a voice signal in a mobile communication system which includes a media gateway and a base station controller, the media gateway including a trans-coder for converting an analog voice signal and a coded digital voice signal into each other, the base station controller transmitting/receiving a digital voice signal to/from the media gateway, the method comprising the steps of:
- transmitting information of a forward delay and data frames of a voice signal, which is received from the mobile station, from the base station controller to the media gateway;
transmitting information of a reverse delay from the media gateway to the base station controller when the media gateway receives data frames of voice signals from a called party; and
receiving the information of the forward delay and the reverse delay and performing a control for the synchronization in the base station controller and the media gateway, respectively.

Abstract
A method and system for synchronizing transmission/reception timings delayed during transmission/reception of data frames for voice signals in a mobile communication system including a media gateway with a transcoder and a base station controller for exchanging digital voice signals with the media gateway. The media gateway or the base station controller performs synchronization control by detecting synchronization of forward data frames for the voice signals. As the base station controller requests synchronization, the media gateway adjusts transmission timing and acquires synchronization according to the adjusted transmission timing, thereby correctly transmitting/receiving data frames for the voice signals.
