Abstract
There is disclosed a method of operating a user equipment in a radio access network. The method includes communicating utilising a time resource allocation, the time resource allocation being indicated by a time resource allocation indication in a received control information message, wherein the time resource allocation indication is mapped to one of a plurality of table representations based on a signaling characteristic of the received control information message. The table representations represent tables having one or more table entries, wherein the table entries associate different values of the time resource allocation indication to a set of time resource allocations.

A method of operating a user equipment in a radio access network, the method comprising:
- communicating with the radio access network utilising a time resource allocation, the time resource allocation being indicated by a time resource allocation indication in a received control information message, the time resource allocation indication being mapped to one of a plurality of table representations based on a signaling characteristic of the received control information message, the table representations representing tables having at least one table entry, the table entries associating different values of the time resource allocation indication to a set of time resource allocations.
A user equipment for a radio access network, the user equipment being configured to:
- communicate with the radio access network utilising a time resource allocation, the time resource allocation being indicated by a time resource allocation indication in a received control information message, the time resource allocation indication being mapped to one of a plurality of table representations based on a signaling characteristic of the received control information message, the table representations representing tables having at least one table entry, the table entries associating different values of the time resource allocation indication to a set of time resource allocations.
A method of operating a signaling radio node in a radio access network, the method comprising:
- receiving signaling from a controlled radio node based on a time resource allocation, the time resource allocation being indicated by a time resource allocation indication, the time resource allocation indication being mapped to one of a plurality of table representations based on a signaling characteristic of table representations based on a signaling characteristic of a control information message, the table representations representing tables having at least one table entry, the table entries associating different values of the time resource allocation indication to a set of time resource allocations.
A signaling radio node for a radio access network, the signaling radio node being configured to:
- receive signaling from a controlled radio node based on a time resource allocation, the time resource allocation being indicated by a time resource allocation indication, the time resource allocation indication being mapped to one of a plurality of table representations based on a signaling characteristic of table representations based on a signaling characteristic of a control information message, the table representations representing tables having at least one table entry, the table entries associating different values of the time resource allocation indication to a set of time resource allocations.
A non-transitory computer storage medium storing an executable computer program comprising instructions to cause processing circuitry to at least one of control and perform a method of operating a user equipment in a radio access network, the method comprising:
- communicating with the radio access network utilising a time resource allocation, the time resource allocation being indicated by a time resource allocation indication in a received control information message, the time resource allocation indication being mapped to one of a plurality of table representations based on a signaling characteristic of the received control information message, the table representations representing tables having at least one table entry, the table entries associating different values of the time resource allocation indication to a set of time resource allocations.
