A method is provided for use in a radio communications system according to which a channel which can be mutually used by a number of subscriber stations, consists of at least two channels that can be allocated to a number of parallelly existing connections for temporally successive use. The channels are structured according to a sequence known to the subscriber stations. A number of channels or a data rate is assigned to a subscriber station by using a subscriber individual signaling message. In addition, a starting point and/or a direction in the sequence is signaled to the subscriber station order to select the channels.

A method determines the position of a mobile object by using at least one radio signal having a rotating transmission characteristic with at least one reference station. The relation between the orientation of the transmission characteristic and reference events is communicated to the mobile object. The orientation of the transmission characteristic and the relative position with respect to the reference station can be determined from the reference event.
