Method for resynchronization of a mobile radio receiver in the event of a changeover between two different modulation methods
View Patent ↗When data bursts are transmitted between a base station and a mobile receiver, a changeover is made between a plurality of modulation methods during an existing radio link for modulation of the data. For resynchronization of the receiver in the event of the changeover, synchronization information items are determined from a first part (ET) of the data burst modulated by a first modulation method, and are used for synchronization with a second part (ZT) of the data burst modulated by the second modulation method.
