Abstract
A method of operating a device (101, 102, 112) includes implementing (7001) a persistent allocation (281) of a plurality of first resources (251) to a first channel (261, 263) of a wireless link (114) supported by an access node (112); and temporarily overriding (7004) the persistent allocation (281) for a subset (251 A) of the plurality of first resources (251); and while overriding (7004): implementing (7005) a dedicated allocation (282) of a plurality of second resources (252) to a second channel (262) of the wireless link (114).
Claims20
A method of operating a device, comprising:
- implementing a persistent allocation of a plurality of first resources to a first channel of a wireless link supported by an access node,
- temporarily overriding the persistent allocation for a subset of the plurality of first resources, and
- while overriding:
- implementing a dedicated allocation of a plurality of second resources to a second channel of the wireless link,
- wherein said overriding comprises cropping the subset of the plurality of first resources from the plurality of first resources,
- wherein the plurality of second resources are time-aligned with the cropped subset of the plurality of first resources;
- and
- wherein a frame structure for the dedicated allocation is different from that for the persistent allocation.
A device configured to:
- implement a persistent allocation of a plurality of first resources to a first channel of a wireless link supported by an access node,
- temporarily override the persistent allocation for a subset of the plurality of first resources, and
- while overriding:
- implement a dedicated allocation of a plurality of second resources to a second channel of the wireless link
- wherein said overriding comprises cropping the subset of the plurality of first resources from the plurality of first resources, and
- wherein the plurality of second resources are time-aligned with the cropped subset of the plurality of first resources;
- and
- wherein a frame structure for the dedicated allocation is different from that for the persistent allocation.
