Transmission frame and radio unit for transmitting short messages with different data format
View Patent ↗A transmission frame and a telecommunications device ( 60, 65, 70 ) having a transmission frame ( 1 ) are proposed, which are used to transmit short messages ( 5 ) in a telecommunications network ( 10 ), in particular in a radiotelecommunications network. By means of the transmission frame ( 1 ), especially flexible transmission of short messages ( 5 ) in the telecommunications network ( 10 ) is possible. At least two data fields ( 15, 20, 25, 30 ) are provided. Data of a short message ( 5 ) are stored in memory in the data fields ( 15, 20, 25, 30 ). Data in a first data format are stored in a first data field ( 15 ), and data in a second data format, different from the first data format, are stored in a second data field ( 20 ).
1. A transmission frame ( 1 ) for transmitting short messages ( 5 ) in a telecommunications network ( 10 ) in the form of a radiotelecommunications network, comprising:
at least two data fields ( 15 , 20 , 25 , 30 ), wherein data of a short message ( 5 ) are stored in memory in the data fields ( 15 , 20 , 25 , 30 ), and wherein data in a first data format are stored in a first data field ( 15 ) of the short message ( 5 ), and data in a second data format, different from the first data format, are stored in a second data field ( 20 ) of the short message ( 5 ), wherein a first ID code ( 35 ), which identifies the makeup of the short message ( 5 ), is provided in the first date field ( 15 ), wherein the first ID code ( 35 ) includes indications about the number of data fields ( 15 , 20 , 25 , 30 ) and/or about the data formats in the data fields ( 15 , 20 , 25 , 30 ), and/or about the size of the data fields ( 15 , 20 , 25 , 30 ), wherein in each of at least two data fields ( 15 , 20 . 25 , 30 ), one data-field-specific ID code, which identifies the makeup and for content of the corresponding data field ( 15 , 20 , 25 , 30 ), per data field is provided.
2. The transmission frame ( 1 ) of claim 1 , wherein a second ID code ( 40 ), which identifies the content of the short message ( 5 ), is provided in the first data field ( 15 ).
3. The transmission frame ( 1 ) of claim 2 , wherein the second ID code ( 40 ) includes indications about the data type, including audio or image data, of the data stored in the data fields ( 15 , 20 , 25 , 30 ).
4. The transmission frame ( 1 ) of claim 1 , wherein only the first data field ( 15 ) is limited in its size to a predetermined value.
5. The transmission frame ( 1 ) of claim 1 , wherein the data stored in the first data field ( 15 ) are present in a data format that is readable by all the subscribers of the telecommunications network ( 10 ).
6. The transmission frame ( 1 ) claim 1 , wherein the data stored in the first data field ( 15 ) are in a text format, in accordance with the GSM-SMS format (Global System for Mobile Communications—Short Message Service).
7. The transmission frame ( 1 ) claim 1 , wherein data are stored In a plurality of data formats In one of the data fields ( 15 , 20 , 25 , 30 ).
8. The transmission frame ( 1 ) of claim 1 , wherein only data in a single data format are stored in each data field ( 15 , 20 , 25 , 30 ).
9. A telecommunications device ( 60 , 65 , 70 ), in the for of a radio unit, comprising:
a transmission frame ( 1 ) for transmitting short messages ( 5 ) in a telecommunications network ( 10 ) in the form of a radiotelecommunications network, wherein at least two data fields ( 15 , 20 , 25 , 30 ) are provided in the transmission frame ( 1 ), wherein data of a short message ( 5 ) are stored In memory in the data fields ( 15 , 20 , 25 , 30 ), and wherein data in a first data format are stored in a first data field ( 15 ) of the short message ( 5 ) and data in a second data format, different from the first data format, are stored in a second data field ( 20 ) of the short messages ( 5 ), wherein a first ID code ( 35 ), which identifies the makeup of the short message ( 5 ), is provided in the first data field ( 15 ), wherein the first ID code ( 35 ) includes indications about the number of data fields ( 15 , 20 , 25 , 30 ) and/or about the data formats in the data fields ( 15 , 20 , 25 , 30 ), and/or about the size of the data fields ( 15 , 20 , 25 , 30 ), wherein in each of at least two data fields ( 15 , 20 , 25 , 30 ), one data-field-specific ID code, which identifies the makeup and/or content of the corresponding data field ( 15 , 20 , 25 , 30 ), per data field is provided.
