    Abstract: Embodiments disclosed herein address the need in the art for reduced overhead control with the ability to adjust transmission rates as necessary. In one aspect, a first signal indicates an acknowledgement of a decoded subpacket and whether or not a rate control command is generated, and a second signal conditionally indicates the rate control command when one is generated. In another aspect, a grant may be generated concurrently with the acknowledgement. In yet another aspect, a mobile station monitors the first signal, conditionally monitors the second signal as indicated by the first signal, and may monitor a third signal comprising a grant. In yet another aspect, one or more base stations transmit one or more of the various signals. Various other aspects are also presented. These aspects have the benefit of providing the flexibility of grant-based control while utilizing lower overhead when rate control commands are used, thus increasing system utilization, increasing capacity and throughput.

    Abstract: A mobile wireless telecommunications system, which includes base stations (30) of a first type operating according to a first air interface, and base stations (36) of a second type operating according to a second air interface. Methods and apparatus are provided for handing over a mobile station (40) in the system from a first base station (30), which is of the first type, to a second base station (36), which is of the second type. A communications link is established over the first air interface between the mobile station (40) and the first base station (30). Data is received from the mobile station (40) responsive to a signal received by the mobile station (40) over the second air interface from the second base station (36), substantially without breaking the communications link with the first base station. The mobile station (40) is handed over from the first (30) to the second base station (36) responsive to the data received therefrom.

The mobile station is handed over from the first to the second base station responsive to the data received therefrom. In particular, a method of conducting intersystem handover from a multicarrier system to a direct spread system is provided. Timing synchronization is also advantageously made available through the mobile station.
