Abstract
An apparatus, method and system configured to allocate communication resources in a communication system. An apparatus includes a processor and memory including computer program code configured to cause the apparatus to arrange a number of sub-channels in a sequence according to an index configured to at least one user equipment. A first segment information is received from a first user equipment to partition the number of sub-channels into first and second user-defined segments. A first segment information is received from a second user equipment to partition the number of sub-channels into first and second user-defined segments. The memory and the computer program code are further configured to, with the processor, cause the apparatus to configure sub-channels dependent on the first user-defined segment to the first user equipment when the first segment information therefrom is lower than the first segment information from the second user equipment.
