Abstract
Systems (100, 200) and methods for providing TDMA communication. The methods involve determining a channel quality of an uplink channel. A communication delay is set equal to an integer value “K”. “K” is selected based on the channel quality. “K”≦“N”. “N” is a total number of frames of a time slot of a TDMA signal (400). Thereafter, First Message Data (FMD) is communicated over the uplink channel in a first time slot (A1) of an uplink signal (1000, 1100, 1200, 1400, 1500, 1600). An Error Control Process (ECP) is performed using FMD to at least identify First Error Free Message Data (FEFMD). Filler data and/or at least a portion of FEFMD is communicated over a downlink channel in a last “N−K” frames of a time slot (A1) of a downlink signal (1050, 1150, 1250, 1450, 1550, 1650), when “K”<“N”.
