Abstract

A method and apparatus for determining the content in bursts to be transmitted from a base station in a mobile network on a broadcast frequency in specific timeslots of a broadcast frequency frame structure. A current state of the logical channel allocated to the forthcoming burst is checked, and the content in the forthcoming burst is determined depending on the current channel state. A dummy burst with a base station specific training sequence is transmitted if there is no data to transmit, and if the dummy burst cannot be confused with a regular traffic burst according to the current channel state. The dummy burst contains no intelligible information to mobile terminals.
