Method for synchronization of data transmission comprising at least one first radio system and at least one additional radio system
First Claim
1. A method of synchronizing data transmissions with at least one first radio system and at least one additional radio system, which comprises:
- evaluating a transmission behavior of the at least one first radio system at a point in time x;
calculating in advance at least one future time window between data blocks following the point in time x during which no transmission of the at least one first radio system will be undertaken or transmission is expected;
controlling the at least one additional radio system to transmit data within the at least one time window; and
operating the at least one first radio system to transmit and receive asynchronously with a plurality of transmission devices on a common transmission frequency, so that time intervals arise wherein no transmission occurs or is expected.

Abstract
The invention relates to a method and an assembly for synchronizing data transmission, comprising at least one first radio system and at least one additional radio system. According to said method, the transmission behavior of the first radio system or systems is evaluated at one point in time x and at least one time interval that follows said point x is calculated in advance between the data blocks. During said interval there is no transmission by the first radio system or systems, or a transmission is expected and the additional radio system or systems can be controlled so that data is transmitted during a time interval of this type.
