RESOURCE ALLOCATION Russian patent published in 2014 - IPC H04L5/02 

FIELD: radio engineering, communication.

SUBSTANCE: described are efficient encoding methods for encoding resource allocation data that must be signalled to multiple user devices in a communication system. In one encoding method, a resource allocation bit combination is transmitted to all users along with a resource identifier for each user. Each user then identifies their allocated subcarriers using the received allocation bit combination and the received resource identifier. Another encoding method employs a code tree to generate a value representing subcarrier allocation. The user device then uses the code tree to determine subcarrier allocation from the signalled value.

EFFECT: high efficiency of using communication with a large number of users.
