Abstract
The present invention relates to a system and method for managing proxy device assignment in a wireless communication network where proxy devices operate as relay devices forwarding signals from a resource restricted device to a destination device. The method comprises dividing an identifier space of the resource restricted device into at least two parts, and assigning at least one of the at least two parts of the identifier space to at least one proxy device of the wireless communication network wherein the proxy device assigned to a first part of the identifier space is responsible for the resource restricted device transmitting a signal comprising an identifier falling within the first part of the identifier space.
