Abstract

A procedure is provided for transmitting packets of variable length, such as AAL2 packets and permitting the transmission of cells such as ATM cells, in time-division circuits such as E1/T1 frames, each divided into a number of time slots, each occupied by an eight-bit byte. The consecutive eight-bit bytes of each packet of variable length and of each cell are located in the slots of consecutive time of at least one group of time slots of the frames. The first eight-bit byte of a packet or a cell is placed at a time slot marked by a pointer occupying a specific time slot of the corresponding group of time slots.
