In a radio communication system including a plurality of subscriber stations and at least one radio access device, useful information of a group of subscriber stations is transmitted by radio. A number of subscriber stations of the group is located in the radio coverage area of the at least one radio access device. The at least one radio access device notifies the subscriber stations of the number of subscriber stations of the group before the useful information is transmitted, using a radio resource. The notification contains information relating to at least one signal in the transmission of the useful information transmitted via another radio resource.

Method and apparatus for multi-casting useful information in a radio communication system

One or more identifiers are set for each terminal and a priority ranking is allocated to each identifier to determine priority of one scheduling command relative to any other scheduling command. A data block is transmitted from the base station to the, or each, terminal, including the scheduling command and at least one identifier. Each terminal indicated by the identifier adapts its power level or data rate in accordance with the scheduling command.

Method of controlling at least one terminal from a base station
