Abstract
A wireless communication system includes a transmitting device having a formatting circuit. The formatting circuit for constructing a frame, the frame including frame header, frame CRC, and a message slot. The message slot having a predetermined length for carrying signaling message, the signaling message including a message header having the message length, a message body and a message CRC, the message body and message CRC being repeated to fill the message slot, a partial copy being copied into the message slot if the slot is not full and a full copy of the message body and message CRC will not fit. A receiving device includes a format circuit coupled to the decoder for outputting a message from the decoded frame, the format circuit to check the frame CRC to determine if the frame CRC is good, to check the message CRC to determine if the message CRC is good, and to reconstruct the message from the full and partial copies of the message if the message CRC is not good.
