Abstract

A timeslot selection method is provided. The timeslot selection method includes the steps of: obtaining a propagation loss; receiving an occupation state and an interference amount of an uplink timeslot; obtaining a desired wave power from the propagation loss; obtaining a ratio between the desired wave power and the propagation loss for the uplink timeslot in which the occupation state is idle; and selecting the transmitting timeslot by using the ratio. In addition, a timeslot assignment method in which there are a plurality of TDD boundaries each of which is a boundary between at least an uplink timeslot and at least a downlink timeslot in a frame is provided. Furthermore, a timeslot assignment method is provided, in which assignment is carried out according to a service class included in a QoS request.
