Abstract
In a cellular mobile radio system, co-channel radio base stations are provided with a time reference signal being a synchronizing signal or a time reference from another co-channel radio base station. Each co-channel radio base station is also provided with a radio base station specific time offset differing between the co-channel radio base stations by at least a predetermined value which prevents known sequences in desired signals and known sequences in interfering signals from overlapping in a disturbing way at reception. In each co-channel radio base station, the time reference signal and the radio base station specific offset are used for the timing of sending bursts downlink from the co-channel radio base stations towards mobile radio stations. Each radio base station has functions receiving the time reference signal, storing the time offset and using the time reference signal and the time offset for the timing of the burst termination on the downlink.
