1. A method of communicating, comprising:
- consolidating a primary and a secondary packet control channel into one packet control channel comprising;
calculating a value from data, wherein said data comprises information subpackets addressed to a subscriber station via MAC ID;
transmitting the value and data over at least one time slot;
receiving a transmission;
recalculating the value from the received data; and
determining the number of time slots of the transmission from the calculated and recalculated values.
