Resource mapping based on bandwidth part

A user equipment for a radio access network, the user equipment being configured to:

• communicate based on a control information message received while operating on a first bandwidth part;
• wherein the control information message represents a bit pattern, the control information message representing a bit pattern, the bit pattern being interpreted differently depending on whether the control information message indicates switch to operating on a second bandwidth part.

A method of operating a network node in a radio access network, the method comprising:

• transmitting a control information message to a user equipment, the control information message representing a bit pattern, the bit pattern being interpreted differently depending on whether the control information message indicates the user equipment to switch from operating on a first bandwidth part to operating on a second bandwidth part.

A network node for a radio access network, the network node being configured to:

• transmit a control information message to a user equipment, the control information message representing a bit pattern, the bit pattern being interpreted differently depending on whether the control information message indicates the user equipment to switch from operating on a first bandwidth part to operating on a second bandwidth part.

A computer storage medium storing a computer program comprising executable instructions that, when executed, 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 based on a control information message received while operating on a first bandwidth part, the control information message representing a bit pattern, the bit pattern being interpreted differently depending on whether the control information message indicates switch to operating on a second bandwidth part.
