| 1. Method for enhanced acknowledgement/non-acknowledgement signaling applicable to automatic repeat request mechanisms operable
with a sender of data packets in wireless networks, wherein said signaling comprises a number of ACK/NACK messages for being
transmitted on a time-multiplexed channel being partitioned into transport time intervals (TTIs), said method comprising:
defining a number of jmax shares within each transport time interval (TTI), wherein each share has a predefined extent in time; and
transmitting each ACK/NACK message within a predefined selection of shares, wherein a total extent in time of said predefined
selection of shares corresponds to an extent in time of said transport time interval (TTI).
