For transmission of data frames (F1, F3) between a first mobile network element (BTS1, BTS2, BTS3) and a second mobile network element (TRAU) in accordance with the ATM (Asynchronous Transfer Mode) protocol, data frames (F1, F3) of different channels are split up in subframes (SF11, SF12, SF13; SF31
For transmission of data frames (F1, F3) between a first mobile network element (BTS1, BTS2, BTS3) and a second mobile network element (TRAU) in accordance with the ATM (Asynchronous Transfer Mode) protocol, data frames (F1, F3) of different channels are split up in subframes (SF11, SF12, SF13; SF31, SF32, SF33), ordered and then embedded in respective minicells. Minicells (MC11, MC31) containing information of different channels are then combined into ATM cells (CELL) that are transferred between the first mobile network element (BTS1, BTS2, BTS3) and the second mobile network element (TRAU). In this way, transcoders in the second mobile network element (TRAU) can already start decoding data frames of several channels after receipt of the most urgent data which is contained in the first ATM cells (CELL).

1. A method for transmission of data frames of different channels between a first mobile network element and a second mobile network element via the ATM (Asynchronous Transfer Mode) protocol, the method comprising: splitting each data frame into a plurality of subframes; embedding said subframes
1. A method for transmission of data frames of different channels between a first mobile network element and a second mobile network element via the ATM (Asynchronous Transfer Mode) protocol, the method comprising: splitting each data frame into a plurality of subframes; embedding said subframes in respective minicells, each of said minicells containing one subframe; forming an ATM cell containing a plurality of said minicells containing data of different channels; and transmitting said ATM cell to said second mobile network. 2. The method according to claim 1, wherein said subframes include urgent subframes containing information that if required to begin decoding of said data frames and non-urgent subframes containing portions of said data frames that may arrive later to continue decoding of said data frames. 3. The method according to claim 2, wherein a first formed ATM cell contains information from said urgent subframes and later formed ATM cells contain information from said non-urgent subframes. 4. A data embedding arrangement according to claim 3, wherein said arrangement further comprises ordering means coupled between said splitting means and said embedding means, and adapted to re-order said subframes so that said urgent subframes precede said non-urgent subframes. 5. A data embedding arrangement according to claim 3, wherein said combining means combines said minicells containing data of different channels into an ATM cell so that a first formed ATM cell contains information from said urgent subframes and later formed ATM cells contain information from said non-urgent subframes. 6. A data embedding arrangement for use in a mobile communications network wherein data frames of different channels are transferred between a first mobile network element and a second mobile network element via the Asynchronous Transfer Mode (ATM) protocol, said arrangement comprising: splitting means adapted to receive said data frames and to split each data frame into a plurality of subframes; embedding means coupled to said splitting means and adapted to embed said subframes in respective minicells, each of said minicells containing one subframe; and combining means coupled to said embedding means and adapted to combine said minicells containing data of different channels into an ATM cell for transmission to said second mobile network element. 7. A data embedding arrangement according to claim 6, wherein said arrangement further comprises ordering means coupled between said splitting means and said embedding means, and adapted to re-order said subframes. 8. A data embedding arrangement according to claim 6, wherein said minicells may have different lengths. 9. A base transceiver station of a mobile communications network, wherein said base transceiver station comprises a data embedding arrangement as defined in claim 6. 10. A transcoding and rate adaptation unit of a mobile communications network, wherein said transcoding and rate adaptation unit comprises a data embedding arrangement as defined in claim 6. 11. A base station controller of a mobile communications network, wherein said base station controller comprises a transcoding and rate adaptation unit as defined by claim 10. 12. A mobile switching center of a mobile communications network, wherein said mobile switching centre comprises a transcoding and rate adaptation unit as defined by claim 10. 13. The method according to claim 12, further comprising the step of rearranging the order of said subframes so that said urgent subframes precede said non-urgent subframes prior to the step of embedding said subframes in respective minicells. 14. A data embedding arrangement according to claim 6, wherein said subframes include urgent subframes containing information that is required to begin decoding of said data frames and non-urgent subframes containing portions of said data frames that may arrive later to continue decoding of said data frames.
