Data packet alignment in a communication system

A communication system provides data packet timing alignment to facilitate soft handoff. A vocoder (315) transmits compressed voice frames to base-stations (130, 131) along links (110, 112) of variable length, DELTA L. The DELTA L translates to a delays in the air-frames to be transmitted by the bas...

Summary:A communication system provides data packet timing alignment to facilitate soft handoff. A vocoder (315) transmits compressed voice frames to base-stations (130, 131) along links (110, 112) of variable length, DELTA L. The DELTA L translates to a delays in the air-frames to be transmitted by the base-stations (130, 131). To compensate for the time delay DELTA t, the communication system advances both sets of air-frames to be transmitted by base-stations (130, 131) by at least DELTA t so that skipping of frames, relative to an air-frame reference (300), during transmission does not occur.
