Abstract
For determining time and frequency resources, a first device performs: obtaining groups of time and frequency resources of the wireless communications network so as to form a redrawn grid; allocating time and frequency resources according to the redrawn grid and to a frequency hopping criteria; and providing signalling information representative of the time and frequency resources that have been allocated according to the redrawn grid. In order to determine which time and frequency resources of the initial grid to be used for performing said transmissions, a second device performs: obtaining the signalling information so as to determine the time and frequency resources that have been allocated according to the redrawn grid; and applying a predetermined pattern mask onto the determined time and frequency resources that have been allocated according to the redrawn grid.
