Abstract

Information is transmitted between a base station and other transceiver stations in a radio communication system within a common frequency channel in the downlink and uplink. At least one switching time is established in this case between the downlink and uplink. These bursts can be configured for the highest possible spectral efficiency in accordance with the rules of mobile radio telephony. However, a burst of shortened duration is transmitted before and/or after the switching time. In TDD transmission systems, this, therefore, prevents the receiving and transmitting operation from overlapping for the switching time due to disadvantageous relative signal propagation times.
