Abstract
A method for assigning slot reservations to subscriber radios in a TDMA communications system, where data is arranged into a series of superframes, includes an inbound signaling protocol having a plurality of inbound transmission slots. An outbound signaling protocol includes an inbound reservation scheduling slot, which includes a plurality of subscriber access code fields. Each subscriber access code field corresponds to at least one of the inbound transmission slots. Each subscriber access code field may store a subscriber access code associated with a subscriber radio. The inbound reservation scheduling message includes a subscriber access code in at least one of the subscriber access code fields. As such, the subscriber radio associated with the subscriber access code may transmit data during the inbound transmission slot corresponding to the subscriber access code in which the subscriber access code field is stored.
