Abstract
The present invention relates to a method for sending a data packet from a first communication unit of a communication system via a transmission channel that is shared with at least one further communication unit. The method comprises determining a current access priority for the shared transmission channel by the first communication unit, wherein the current access priority is directed towards data currently transmitted over the transmission channel. The data packet is segmented into packet segments, wherein the packet segments have a priority value which corresponds to a priority value of the data packet. The method also comprises sending the packet segments from the first communication unit via the shared transmission channel, wherein the packet segments are sent successively depending on the priority value and the current access priority.
