Patent attributes
The invention relates to a radio transmission system comprising a plurality of processing layers for the transmission of data packets between various radio appliances in a radio channel. A first functional unit in a physical radio transmission layer analyses the radio channel and determines the quality (QoC) of the radio channel. A second functional unit in a back-up layer controls the access to the radio channel according to the actual quality (QoC) of the radio channel and the priority of the data packets to be transmitted according to the quality (QoS) of the service carried out by the data packets. A third functional unit in a switching layer controls the switching of the data packets. A control unit then releases the data packets for switching by means of the third functional unit only when the quality (QoS) of the service carried out by the data packets corresponds sufficiently with the quality (QoC) of the radio channel determined in the first functional unit.
