Abstract
A method for wireless data communications over a network is provided. Data packets are intended for a first terminal configured for a first communications protocol. Further data packets are intended for a second terminal configured for a second communications protocol and for the first protocol. The data packets are formatted as data bursts in accordance with the first protocol for transmission over a network channel that is configured based on the first protocol. The further data packets are formatted as data bursts in accordance with the second protocol for transmission over the network channel, and for transmission at a higher throughput rate of the second protocol (not compatible with the first protocol). The data bursts of the first protocol are transmitted over the channel for receipt by the first terminal. The data bursts of the second protocol are transmitted over the channel for receipt by the second terminal.
