Abstract

A data communication protocol permits efficient and cost-effective transmission of control and ancillary messages among the components of a communication system infrastructure (200). Messages are organized into Infrastructure Control Words (300) with accompanying Format Identifiers (304), and interleaved with voice and data segments (707) to form message streams (700) that are transmitted from one infrastructure component, such as a base station (201), to another infrastructure component, such as a Digital Interface Unit (202).
