A system and method of communicating additional data in a data communications system are disclosed. Selective application of a plurality of algorithms is advantageously applied to encoded data to yield a dual benefit of satisfying a primary function as well as communicating additional data. In the preferred embodiment, a plurality of error detecting algorithms are linked to a plurality of additional data so that the system can identify the type of data slot packet that is presently decoded without the need for additional data bits to make such determination.

System and method for communicating additional data in a data communications system

In method of communicating from a terminal unit to a base unit, an incoming signal is sent from the base unit and received at the terminal unit. The terminal unit will measure the level of this incoming signal. The terminal unit may also extract digital information from the incoming signal. Based on either the measured signal level, the extracted information or both, the terminal will calculate an output power level to use in transmitting a signal back to the base unit. An outgoing signal can then be transmitted from the terminal unit using the output power level.
