A network includes a first transceiving station and a further transceiving station. In one arrangement the data is transmitted from the first transceiving station to the second transceiving station according to a frame structure having a payload portion for payload data and a synchronisation portion for synchronisation data. The frame structure is selected from candidate frame structures having differing durations of the synchronisation portion, according to a data loading factor which depends on the amount of data that is required to be transmitted. The payload capacity may be optimised by reducing the duration of the synchronisation portion when a large amount of data is required to be transmitted.
A method of transmitting data in a network, said network comprising a first transceiving station and a further transceiving station, said method comprising:

19-24. (canceled)
A transceiving station for transmitting data, said transceiving station being adapted to transmit data according to a selectable frame structure, said frame structure comprising a synchronisation portion for transmitting synchronisation data, wherein said transceiving station is adapted to select a time characteristic of said synchronisation portion according to a data loading parameter associated with at least the frame.
