    Abstract: A communications device acting as a relay device including a controller configured in combination with a transmitter and a receiver to receive from a remote communications device a first random access preamble message, the first random access preamble message comprising an identifier of the remote communications device, to transmit, in response to the first random access preamble message, a random access response message to the remote communications device, the random access response message comprising an indication of communications resources allocated to the remote communications device, to receive, from the remote communications device and using the communications resources indicated in the random access response message, a scheduled transmission comprising a connection request message and a first contention resolution identifier, and to transmit to the remote communications device a second contention resolution identifier.

    Abstract: A method of evaluating whether to handover a terminal device from communicating with a first network infrastructure element associated with a first communication cell to communicating with a second network infrastructure element associated with a second communication cell in a wireless telecommunications system. The method includes establishing an indication of radio conditions associated with a path between the terminal device and the first network infrastructure element; and establishing an indication of a second measurement of radio conditions associated with a communication path between the terminal device and the second network infrastructure element; and determining whether to handover the terminal device from communicating with the first network infrastructure element to the second network infrastructure element based on a comparison of the indication of the first measurement of radio conditions and the indication of the second measurement of radio conditions.

    Abstract: An infrastructure equipment for a mobile communications network includes plural antennas, and is configured in a first mode of operation to transmit, from each of the plural antennas, reference signals in communications resource elements of the wireless access signals allocated to the plural antennas. The reference signals are transmitted in different communications resource elements of the wireless access interface for each antenna, so that a receiver can estimate a communications channel for each of the antennas, from the antennas to the receiver, from the transmitted reference signals. The infrastructure equipment is configured to switch between transmitting signals representing different data segments between subsets of the plural antennas to a second communications device, the signals being transmitted from each antenna subset representing different data segments for transmission to the second communications device, the transmitted signals being switched in at least one of time or frequency in accordance with a mapping.
