Abstract
A method of allocating transmission time slots in an optical wireless system. Resources are allocated taking account of asymmetry of interference diagrams on uplink and downlink and adopting reuse of transmission intervals for each channel, in areas in which there is no interference. In some embodiments, the allocation method allows for relaying between access points through the network to take account of the fact that the access point providing the best uplink (or downlink) can be distinct from the access point associated with the terminal.
