Field of the Invention The invention relates to a method and to a device for improving the overall spectral ellcieney of wireless tele- ‘communication systems 2, Deseription of the Related Art ‘As known by a person skilled in the art, several tech- rigues have been proposed and partially implemented 10 ‘enhance the spectral efficiency of systems operating with the ‘GSM-standard Global Systems for Mobile Communica tion). Techniques for enhancing the spectra elficency are ‘especially nesed for operators, which suffer from limited ‘capaci in particular due to a limited spectnim licenses, that is often the ease for GSM operators, in particular in the USA. It is specific © GSM in contrast t9 other mobile standards, tht there isthe nee! dedicate a big portion of the operator's spectrum for beacon purposes, which ineludes Jor example signalling, paging and synchronisation, Even if there is only one beacon frequency for respective ‘one base transmitter station (BTS), the spectrum is wide due ‘oa high cluster sizeof typically 15... 18 cells. Considering ‘an operator having a Tcense for § MH, this means that 3.0 3.6 MHz of the operator's spectrum is given away for @ ‘ingle frequeney, which accordingly is covering about 60 10 72% of the tofal spectrum. In contrast thereto, & typical
