Abstract

In order that a mobile part having a slow channel changing function can be synchronized in a manner which is economic in terms of frequencies and, at the same time, to at least two base stations having a fast channel changing function in a cellular TDMA/FDMA radio system, in particular in a cellular DECT/GAP system, the base station transmits broadcast information to the mobile part. The mobile part maintains a telecommunications link to one of the base stations in the radio system, using a predetermined transmit separation which is defined as a number of TDMA time slots and is greater than a receive separation which is predetermined by the slow channel changing function of the mobile part and is defined as a number of TDMA time slots.
