Radio transmission system comprising a master station and slave stations, each comprising an error correcting section including error correcting methods
First Claim
1. A radio transmission system comprising a master station and a plurality of slave stations connected to said master station via a radio transmission path which consists of an upward transmission path from said slave stations two said master station and a downward transmission path from said master station to said slave stations,said master station comprising:
- detection means for detecting an upward error rate for the upward transmission path to produce a detected error rate;
master error correcting means including a plurality of master error correcting methods;
comparison means, connected to said detection means, for comparing the detected error rate with a predetermined reference value to produce degradation information when the detected error rate is larger than the predetermined reference value;
master switching means, connected to said comparison means and said master error correcting means, for supplying, in response to the degradation information, said master error correcting means with a switch control signal to make said master error correcting means switch said master error correcting methods from one to another; and
sending means, connected to said master switching means, for sending the switch control signal via the downward transmission on path to said slave stations,each of said slave stations comprising;
reception means for receiving the switch control signal to produce a received switch control signal;
slave error correcting means including a plurality of slave error correcting methods which are identical with the master error correcting methods; and
slave switching means, connected to said reception means and said slave error correcting means, for supplying said slave error correcting means with the received switch control signal to make said slave error correcting means switch said slave error correcting methods from one to another.

Abstract
In a radio transmission system having a master station and plural slave stations connected to the master station via a radio transmission path, the master station has a master error correcting section including plural master error correcting methods and each of the slave stations has a slave error correcting section including plural slave error correcting methods identical with the master error correcting methods. A detection section detects an upward error rate for an upward transmission path to produce a detected error rate. A monitoring section compares the detected error rate with a predetermined reference value to produce degradation information when the detected error rate is larger than the predetermined reference value. Responsive to the degradation information, a master switching section supplies the master error correcting section with a switch control signal. A master radio section sends the switch control signal via a downward transmission path to the slave stations. In each of the slave stations, a slave radio section receives the switch control signal to produce a received switch control signal. A slave switching section supplies the slave error correcting section with the received switch control signal.

6. A method of controlling error correction in a radio transmission system comprising a master station and a plurality of slave stations connected to said master station via a radio transmission path which consists of an upward transmission path from said slave stations to said master station and a downward transmission path from said master station to said slave stations, said master station comprising master error correcting means including a plurality of master error correcting methods, each of said slave stations comprising slave error correcting means including a plurality of slave error correcting methods which are identical with the master error correcting methods, said method comprising the steps of:
-
detecting, in said master station, an error rate for the upward transmission path to produce a detected error rate; comparing, in said master station, the detected error rate with a predetermined reference value to produce degradation information when the detected error rate is larger than the predetermined reference value; supplying, in said master station, said master error correcting means with a switch control signal in response to the degradation information to make said master error correcting means switch said master error correcting methods from one to another; sending the switch control signal from said master station to said slave stations via the downward transmission path; receiving, each of said slave stations, the switch control signal to produce a received switch control signal; and supplying, each of said slave stations, said slave error correcting means with the received switch control signal to make said slave error correcting means switch said slave error correcting methods from one to another. - View Dependent Claims (7, 8)
