Abstract: A method of allocating resources in a communication system which uses a plurality of sub-carriers arranged in a sequence of physical resource blocks wherein adjacent blocks of the sequence are arranged in groups. The method includes, in a base station, determining at least one virtual resource block for allocation to a mobile communications device, signalling data identifying each virtual resource block to the mobile communications device, and mapping each allocated virtual resource block, using predetermined mapping data, onto a plurality of spaced physical resource blocks to determine the physical resource blocks to be used for communications with the mobile communications device. At least part of the predetermined mapping data defines an equation for the location of a further physical resource block, relative to a first physical resource block.

Abstract: A communications system is described in which user devices communicate with an associated base station. The user devices employ frequency hopping techniques to provide frequency diversity in their communications with the base station. Techniques are described for reducing collisions between the communications from the different user devices and for the efficient signalling of data defining the frequency hopping sequence to use. The inventions are particularly suitable for use in the uplink of the E-UTRA communications scheme.
