Resource allocation information is signalled to user devices (UE1, UE2, UE3, UE4) in a mobile telecommunications communications system in which each user device is allocated plural resource allocations (RB) in a TTI (50) by, for each user device, providing information (I1) regarding a selected resource allocation allocated to that user device in a control channel (L1, L2, L3, L4) and providing information (I2, I3) regarding at least one other resource allocation allocated to that user device in a data channel (52) in the selected resource allocation. In one example, the selected resource allocation is the first resource allocation (RB1) allocated to that user device (UE1) and information regarding each successive further resource allocation is provided in a data channel in the resource allocation preceding that successive further resource allocation. In another example, the selected resource allocation is the first resource allocation allocated to that user device and information regarding each successive further resource allocation is provided in a data channel in the first resource allocation. In another example, the selected resource allocation is the resource allocation that is indicated to have the best channel quality. The resource allocation information may be provided in the data channel of the one resource allocation as a list of RFI fields or as a bit map. |
