Method of allocating resources and allocation scheme therefor

摘要

The invention relates to a method for allocating resources to a terminal (108) in a communications system. The system is arranged to support a first duplexing scheme and a second duplexing scheme. One of the first or second duplexing schemes is allocated to the terminal (108) in response to at least one criteria relating to the spectral use of the system so as to optimise the spectral efficient use of the system by the terminal (108).
