Internet protocol based information transmission in a radio communication system
DC CAFCFirst Claim
1. A method for transmitting information in a communication system with at least two communicating devices, comprising:
- linking the at least two communicating devices for transmission of the information at least via a radio communication interface of a radio communication system having base stations interlinked via a base station network, said linking using channels arranged in hierarchical protocol layers;
supplying channel-specific information, at least from one channel for a radio link between one of the communicating devices and at least one base station, to a hierarchically higher Internet protocol based channel for an overall link between the at least two communicating devices; and
initiating at least one of a changeover in respect of at least one multiple access medium and a handover based on the channel-specific information supplied from the channel for the radio link to the hierarchically higher Internet protocol based channel for the overall link.

Abstract
Information is transmitted in a communication system having at least two communicating devices using a link between the at least two communicating devices provided at least via a radio communication interface of a radio communication system having a number of base stations that are interlinked via a base station network. The link is realized using channels arranged in hierarchical protocol layers. Channel-specific information is given to a hierarchical higher channel at least from one channel for the radio link between a communicating device and at least one base station. This hierarchically higher channel is an Internet protocol-based channel for the overall link between the at least two communicating devices.

9. A communication system, comprising:
-
at least two communicating devices; base stations; a base station network interlinking said base stations; means for transmitting channel-specific information at least from one channel for a radio link between one of said communicating devices and at least one of said base stations to a hierarchically higher Internet protocol based channel for an overall link between said communicating devices; and means for initiating at least one of a changeover in respect of at least one multiple access medium and a handover based on the information transmitted by said transmitting means from the channel for the radio link to the hierarchically higher Internet protocol based channel for the overall link. - View Dependent Claims (10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16)
