Abstract
A method of operating a communications device for transmitting data to or receiving data from an infrastructure equipment forming part of a wireless communications network. The method comprises determining uplink communications resources of a wireless access interface provided by the wireless communications network to be used for the transmission of data by the communications device to the infrastructure equipment, receiving, from the infrastructure equipment via the wireless radio interface, an uplink pre-emption indicator that indicates that at least a portion of the uplink communications resources are allocated for the transmission of signals by another communications device, the at least the portion of the uplink communications resources being located within communications resources of a reference region associated with the uplink pre-emption indicator, and adjusting one or more communications parameters for the transmission of signals representing the data in the uplink communications resources in response to receiving the uplink pre-emption indicator.
