In this paper we consider the use of DECT access for packet data services. DECT systems are characterized by a dynamic channel selection algorithm which allows to reuse the available radio resources in a flexible way. The standard channel allocation procedure results inefficient for packet data applications characterized by short and frequent messages, which determine fast varying traffic conditions. We propose an enhanced dynamic channel selection algorithm, which allows to fulfil the requirements of packet access in a more efficient way. The performance characteristics of the new and standard algorithm have been evaluated by simulation, and refer both to a scenario for only packet data services and an integrated scenario for voice and data services.
