Abstract

A method of transmitting messages, where transmitting a message requires a plurality of transmissions, includes communicating control information, e.g., a communication resource allocation request (106) and a communication resource assignment (110), between a controller (101) and a communication unit (104) on a control communication resource (114), such that a working communication resource (115-117) is assigned to the communication unit (104). While the communication unit (104) is engaged in a first transmission of the message on the working communication resource, the control information is communicated between the controller (101) and the communication unit (104) on the working communication resource (115-117), such that the working communication resource (115-117) is assigned to the communication unit (104) for a second transmission of the message.
