Abstract

In a transmission system for transmitting synchronous data portions and asynchronous data portions, a transmission frame includes regularly spaced synchronous data portions interleaved with asynchronous data portions. To insure that the packing density of asynchronous data portions is optimal, the position of the synchronous data portions is allowed to deviate from its nominal value to increase the packing rate of the asynchronous data portions.
