ABSTRACT:
A procedure for assigning time slots to mobile users in a wireless communication system supporting wireless communication applications where both end users of a communication link are mobile is discussed. The procedure operates by receiving time slot reservation requests from the mobile users during a first frame, wherein each of the time slot reservation requests comprises information identifying a source end user and a destination end user. During the first frame, a voice traffic matrix and a data traffic matrix are generated by using the time slot reservation requests. The voice traffic matrix comprises source end user information and destination end user information for all active voice calls, and the data traffic matrix comprises source end user and destination end user information for all pending data packets. Also during the first frame, time slot assignment information is generated based on the voice traffic matrix and the data traffic matrix. This time slot assignment information is then transmitted to the mobile users. The mobile users transmit and receive voice packets and data packets during time slots of a second frame as specified by the time slot assignment information.
