Abstract
Network roaming information (NRI), which comprises identifies a network (200) and a service area (210) within the network (200), a receiver address, is transmitted in a network (200) during a predetermined number of time slots of a signal, whereby the signal is transmitted in consecutive cycles, each cycle comprising a plurality of consecutive time slots. The placement of the NRI in the transmitted signal is made to be predicted by a receiver so that the receiver can compute an expected time slot location of a NRI to be compared with a stored NRI. The placement of the NRI is made according to an algebraic relationship between moduloN of the transmission frequency of the signal, moduloN of the order of the cycle, and moduloN of a portion of the NRI, wherein N is an integer.
