Abstract

An RF cellular TDM communication system employing offset frame synchronization between cells, any cell being omni-directional or directional, such that a frame at one cell is offset by an integral number of frames from another cell; the system incorporating multiplexed speech transcoding of traffic channels from multiple cells while supporting stringent delay requirements. Offset frame synchronization for providing rapid mobile assisted handoff.
