`
`REASONS FOR ALLOWANCE
`
`1.
`
`The following is an examiner's statement of reasons for allowance: Claims 1-13
`
`are considered allowable since when reading the claims in light of the specification,
`
`none of the ref~rences of record alone or in combination disclose or suggest the
`
`· combination of limitations specified in the ·independent claims. As to claims 1, 2, 7-10,
`
`the prior art of record does not teach wherein the selection algorithm uses a minimum
`
`bit rate criteria applicable to the respective logic channel. As to claims 3-6, the prior art
`
`of record does not teach a first allocation sequence is provided for the selection
`
`algorithm, by means of which packet units of the logic channels are allocated to the
`
`transport channels,
