TLDR

Abstract
The invention relates to a cellular digital mobile radio system including base stations (Bm, Bn) and mobile stations (MS1, MS2) with transmitters and receivers. The invention also relates to a method of transmitting message information digitally between mobile and base stations in such a system. In accordance with the invention, at least two base station transmitters (Bma, Bmb, Bna, Bnb) at a given transmitting distance from each other are assigned to each of certain cells (Cm, Cn) within a restricted geographical area. The base station transmitters which are assigned to the same cell transmit digitally modulated radio signals within the same frequency range at least partially simultaneously to the mobile stations of the cell. The radio signals from different base station transmitters associated with the same cell are digitally modulated with the same message information to the mobile stations in the cell. Different base station transmitters (9A, 9B) preferably transmit the digitally modulated radio signals with the same message information to a given mobile station with a given mutual transmission time shift. Here, the transmission time shift is selected individually for each mobile station, such that corresponding digitally modulated radio signals with the same message information to a given mobile station from different base station transmitters arrive practically simultaneously at the mobile station.

Method and arrangement for the simultaneous transmission of information by several common-wave transmitters

TL;DR: In this article, the authors propose a method for the simultaneous transmission of communications over several common frequency transmitters, characterized by the fact that the communications are stored or delayed in the common frequency receivers for a waiting time until the longest possible transit time of the communications from the exchange to the common receiver has elapsed and that the transmissions are then transmitted synchronously by the common receivers on a not necessarily periodic timing signal.
