A feeder terminal comprises backhaul communication circuitry to connect to a communications network via a wireless backhaul, and provides an access base station with access to the wireless backhaul. Backhaul information circuitry determines congestion information relating to the wireless backhaul and communication circuitry enables communication with an access base station and provides the congestion information to the access base station. In response to a demand message from the access base station comprising quality of service requirements, the communication circuitry forwards the demand message to the communications network. Additionally the access base station apparatus provides one or more items of user equipment with access to the wireless backhaul. The access base station comprises requirement determination circuitry to determine at least one quality of service requirement from one or more items of the user equipment and access control circuitry to selectively control usage of the wireless backhaul by the user equipment. Access control circuitry of the access base station controls usage of the wireless backhaul by the user equipment in dependence on the congestion information. |
