Method of controlling the operation of a packet switched CDMA telecommunication network
First Claim
1. A method of controlling the operation of a packet switched CDMA telecommunication network, wherein N network users (Ui,j) are connected to the network by a respective terminal (TERi, TERj, i, j=1→
- N), and each terminal (TERi) communicates by means of a transmitter (Ti, i=1→
N) and a receiver Ri, i=1→
N) with a receiver (Rj) and a transmitter (Tj) of another terminal (TERj, j=1→
N) via a CDMA channel (1) forming the transmission path, and wherein a substantially orthogonal receiver code (ri, rj, i, j=1→
N) is assigned to the terminal (TERi, TERj) of each user, which code is used by the other terminals of the network for addressing and encoding packets to the particular terminal, comprising;
sensing by a network terminal (TERi, i=1→
N) wanting to transmit the channel (1) forming the transmission path for the presence of the receiver code (rj) of the receiving terminal (TERj) of the other communicating party, in signals (Si) transmitted by the other terminals, said receiving terminal (TERj) being the terminal to which the sensing terminal (TERi) wants to transmit data in packet format, andif the receiver code (rj) is not detected in the channel, initiating by said terminal (TERi) wanting to transmit the transmission of packet-format data encoded by said receiver code (rj) to the receiver (Rj) of the receiving terminal (TERj), whereasif the receiver code (rj) is detected in the channel, remaining waiting of said terminal (TERi) wanting to transmit so as to repeat the sensing step after a period of time.

Abstract
A method of controlling the operation of a packet switched CDMA telecommunication network, wherein N network users are connected to the network by respective terminals, and the terminal of each user is assigned an orthogonal receiver code. To improve the properties of the packet network, the network terminal wanting to transmit senses the channel forming the transmission path for the presence of the receiver code of the other communicating party, i.e. the receiving terminal, in signals transmitted by the other terminals, the receiving terminal being the terminal to which the sensing terminal wants to transmit data in packet format. If the receiver code is not detected in the channel, the terminal wanting to transmit initiates the transmission of packet-format data encoded by the receiver code, whereas if the receiver code is detected in the channel, the terminal wanting to transmit remains waiting so as to repeat the above-described sensing algorithm after a period of time.
