Multiplexed transmission system for subscriber units of different types
First Claim
1. A transmission system comprising a plurality of subscriber units connected to at least two transceiver stations for exchanging information in a time-division multiplex mode, said information being transmitted in a plurality of series of T traffic time intervals which are allocated to a variable number C of channels depending on the number and type of subscriber units to be connected, characterized in that a control time interval is provided between each of said series of T time intervals, the number of channels is less than or equal to CMAX, and in that T is a number which is mutually prime with respect to all the numbers C=2, . . . , CMAX.

Abstract
A plurality of subscriber units are connected to at least two transceiver stations for exchanging information in a time division multiple access mode, in which traffic time intervals are allocated in rotation to a variable number C of channels, where C is dependent on the number and type of units to be connected. T intervals plus one control time interval form a frame, where T is mutually prime with respect to the numbers 2 through CMAX. M frames form a superframe, where M is the lowest common multiple of the numbers 1 through CMAX.
