Abstract
The method according to the present invention provides synchronization in a heterogeneous mobile network, for the purpose of interoperability, of a wireless local area network, in which a medium is reserved for a certain service or user in radio channel reservation periods () of variable duration, to a radio access network, transmitting data in transmission time intervals of pre-defined duration (). The variable duration of a radio channel reservation period () is defined such that it ends by a pre-defined time period () before the end of a transmission time interval (). The method may be implemented in an access point () of a heterogeneous network as well as in a mobile station ().
