Abstract

A method for bidirectional data transmission of a data set between a data transmission device and a data reception device via at least one packet-oriented network device, which includes encapsulation of the data set to enable a connection-oriented data transmission of the data set; connection-oriented transmission of the encapsulated data set by means of at least one telecommunications device from the data transmission device to the packet-oriented network device; evaluation of the data encapsulation protocol in the packet-oriented network device for an unpacking of the data set to enable a packet-oriented data transmission of the data set; and packet-oriented transmission of the data set from the packet-oriented network device to the data reception device.

Claims (22)

1. A method for transmission of a data set between a data transmission device and a data reception device via at least one packet-oriented network device over which data is transmitted in a packet-oriented manner, said method comprising the steps of:

a) selection of a connection-oriented transmission mode for the transmission of the data set from supported connection-oriented transmission and packet-oriented transmission modes;

b) allocation of a data encapsulation protocol to the data set to be transmitted for encapsulation of the data set to enable a connection-oriented transmission of the data set;

c) encapsulation of the data set to form an encapsulated data set;

d) connection-oriented transmission of the data set over an air interface from a mobile phone to a base station of a mobile phone network;

e) evaluation of the data encapsulation protocol of the encapsulated data set in said base station and unpacking therein of the encapsulated data set to produce an unpacked data set;

f) packet-oriented transmission of the unpacked data set to said at least one packet-oriented network device; and

g) packet-oriented transmission of the data set from the at least one packet-oriented network device via a packet network to the data reception device.

2. The method according to claim 1 , wherein the base station supports both a connection-oriented data transmission and a packet-oriented data transmission.

3. The method according to claim 1 , wherein the allocation of the data encapsulation protocol is made in a device connected to a mobile terminal.

4. The method according to claim 1 , wherein the allocation of the data encapsulation protocol is made in a mobile terminal.

5. A method for transmission of a data set between a data transmission device and a data reception device via at least one packet-oriented network device over which data is transmitted in a packet-oriented manner, the method having the following steps:

a) selection of a connection-oriented transmission mode for the transmission of the data set from supported connection-oriented transmission and packet-oriented transmission modes;

b) allocation of a data encapsulation protocol to the data set to be transmitted for encapsulation of the data set to enable a connection-oriented transmission of the data set;

c) encapsulation of the data set to form an encapsulated data set;

d) connection-oriented transmission of the encapsulated data set over an air interface from a mobile phone to a base station of a mobile phone network;

e) evaluation of the data encapsulation protocol of the encapsulated data set in a radio network controller associated with said base station and unpacking in said radio network controller of the encapsulated data set to produce an unpacked data set;

f) packet-oriented transmission of the unpacked data set from the radio network controller to said at least one packet-oriented network device; and

g) packet-oriented transmission of the data set from the at least one packet-oriented network device via a packet network to the data reception device.

6. The method according to claim 5 , wherein the base station supports both a connection-oriented data transmission and a packet-oriented data transmission.

7. The method according to claim 5 , wherein the allocation of the data encapsulation protocol is made in a device connected to a mobile terminal.

8. The method according to claim 5 , wherein the allocation of the data encapsulation protocol is made in a mobile terminal.
