Abstract
The present invention relates to a method, a system and apparatuses for transferring data on a bitstream in a circuit switched time division multiplexed network, wherein said bitstream is divided into frames, each frame is divided into time slots, and said time slots are divided into control slots and data slots, and wherein an isochronous channel, comprising one or more data slots within each cycle of said bitstream, has been established between a first node and a second node of said network. According to the invention, said bitstream is provided with data distinguishing each data slot, within said channel, that contains non-valid data as a result of said first node not being able to transmit valid data into said each data slot.
