Abstract
A method and a transmitter ( ) and a receiver ( ) for transmitting messages ( ) in a digital telecommunications system. The information ( ) to be sent is encoded in an information encoder ( ) of the transmitter ( ) into frames that are transmitted via a transmission path ( ) to the receiver ( ). A good state and a bad state have been defined for the frames, and a bit pattern corresponding to each message ( ) has been defined. The messages( ) are encoded with a message encoder ( ) of the transmitter ( ) and transmitted to the receiver ( ). The messages ( ) are transmitted together with the information ( ) via a common transmission path ( ), inserting the bit pattern corresponding to the message ( ) in the frame, forming the frame corresponding to the time of transmitting the message ( ) as bad, and in short sequences, preferably only one frame at a time. The messages thus transmitted can be received together with the information ( ) via a common transmission path ( ) simply by detecting a bad frame that additionally contains a bit pattern deviating from the bit pattern corresponding to the message in a few bits at most. The bad frames corresponding to the time of message transmission are replaced with a preceding good frame.
