Method and system for fast access to an uplink channel in a mobile communications network
First Claim
1. A method for obtaining fast access to a multiplexed uplink channel in a mobile telecommunications system, comprising the steps of:
- assigning a plurality of mobile stations to a first uplink channel;
receiving real time data in a first block on the first uplink channel from a first mobile station assigned to the first uplink channel; and
reassigning mobile stations other than the first mobile station previously assigned to the first uplink channel to at least one second uplink channel in response to the reception of the real time data.

Abstract
A method and system are disclosed for fast access to an uplink channel for a mobile station in a packet data radio network. A plurality of mobile stations are assigned to a first uplink channel. A mobile station assigned to the first uplink channel transmits in an uplink transmission block real time information. In response to the transmission, a base station reassigns the other mobile stations that are assigned to the first uplink channel and are involved in the communication of real time information in a downlink transmission block immediately following the uplink transmission block. Thereafter, the first mobile station continues transmitting real time information on the first uplink channel.

13. A mobile telecommunications system, comprising:
-
a packet data network including a packet data support node for routing data communications to and receiving data communications from a plurality of mobile stations located in an area served by the packet data support node; and
a radio network for transmitting data packets between said plurality of mobile stations and the packet data support node, wherein said radio network operates to;
assign a plurality of mobile stations to a radio resource associated with a first uplink channel;
detect a transmission of real time information in a first uplink transmission block from a first mobile station by the radio resource associated with the first uplink channel; and
reassign mobile stations assigned to the radio resource associated with the first uplink channel other than the first mobile station to a radio resource associated with at least one second uplink channel in response to the detected transmission of real time information from the first mobile station. - View Dependent Claims (14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20, 21, 22)

23. A method for obtaining fast access to a multiplexed unlink channel in a mobile telecommunications system, comprising the steps of:
-
assigning a plurality of mobile stations to a radio resource for a first unlink channel;
initially receiving, in a first uplink transmission block on the first uplink channel, a transmission of real time information by a first mobile station; and
reassigning, to a radio resource for a third uplink channel, mobile stations other than the first mobile station that are assigned to the radio resource for the first uplink channel in the step of assigning, in a downlink transmission block substantially immediately following the first uplink transmission block;
receiving, in an uplink transmission block on the first uplink channel, a completion of a transmission of real time information by the first mobile station; and
scheduling an uplink transmission block in which the first mobile station is to transmit silence descriptor (SID) information in a second uplink channel. - View Dependent Claims (24, 25, 26)
