Abstract

A method is described in which a signaling message is sent from a first radio station to a second radio station. The message contains information relating to both a frequency channel number and a frequency channel bandwidth, each referring to a common standard bandwidth. The signaling message is received by the second radio station, and the signaled frequency channel is used for transmission and reception purposes. The data relating to the frequency channel number and the bandwidth indicate which frequency channel has to be used. In addition the signal includes information about using radio communication systems with a plurality of non-interconnected frequency bands and with bandwidths intended for various applications.
