1. A method for multiplexing a plurality of logical channels onto a transport channel, in accordance with a UMTS protocol architecture for air interface in a transmission apparatus, the method comprising the steps of:

  • processing the logical channels using at least one configuration command, wherein the processing determines sizes of data units to be transported by the logical channels;

    configuring each logical channel, after processing, to contain a unique data size for multiplexing onto the transport channel, wherein a radio resource control layer negotiates the configuration of each logical channel and at least one logical channel is identifiable according to the unique data size of the at least one logical channel; and

    supporting, in each configured logical channel, further data units that are the same size as the unique size configured to each logical channel.
