Abstract
A system and method for communication provides an adaptation value for at least one communication parameter, the adaptation value describes a variation of the communication parameter to be enabled during that data communication. The communication parameter is determined such that the variation indicated by the adaptation value is possible during data communication without violating a limit for the communication parameter.
Claims33
A method for communication comprising:
- providing an adaptation value for at least one communication parameter, the adaptation value describing a quantitative amount of allowable variation of the communication parameter to be enabled during data communication, wherein the adaptation value is provided during a first phase;
- determining the at least one communication parameter during a first phase;
- and
- varying the at least one communication parameter during data communication following the first phase according to the adaptation value without violating a limit for the at least one communication parameter, wherein
- the at least one communication parameter comprises a data rate,
- the adaptation value comprises a ratio describing a quantitative amount of allowable variation of the communication parameter to be enabled during data communication, and
- the adaptation value comprises a value less than a ratio of a maximum data rate to a minimum data rate.

A method for communication, comprising:
- providing a limit violation parameter for at least one communication parameter of a data communication, the limit violation parameter describing whether or not a violation of a limit of the at least one communication parameter is allowed during communication;
- limiting the at least one communication parameter to the limit during an initialization;
- and
- allowing the at least one communication to violate the limit during transmission of payload data if indicated by the limit violation parameter.
