Abstract
This specification describes a method comprising generating a first packet based on user plane data relating to a single user which is output by a first L1 PHY processing stage, the first packet including a proper subset of the user plane data which is to be transmitted to the user equipment during a first time-slot symbol; passing the first packet to a second L1 PHY processing stage across a split fronthaul interface in a first time period having a duration corresponding to a duration of transmission of the first time-slot symbol; and passing one or more subsequent packets including the remainder of the user plane data across the split fronthaul interface in one or more successive time periods which are immediately subsequent to the first time period.
