1. A method comprising:
- configuring a common logical resource space comprised of a plurality of time-frequency resources and code resources, wherein the common logical resource space is split within a physical resource block and is thereby comprised of a first portion for a first type of signaling and a second portion for a second type of signaling, said second portion being at the end of the configured common logical resource space, wherein the first type of signaling comprises at least one of persistent acknowledgement signaling and scheduling request signaling, wherein the second type of signaling comprises dynamic acknowledgement signaling, and wherein the first type of signaling and the second type of signaling share a common, staggered channelization structure;
allocating, based on the configured common logical resource space, resources of the common logical resource space for the at least one of persistent acknowledgement signaling and scheduling request signaling; and
signaling the space indicative of the first portion to determine a location of the beginning of the second portion,wherein a resource index for the first type of signaling is signaled explicitly via higher layer signaling or radio resource control signaling, andwherein the first portion and the second portion partially overlap.

Abstract
In one exemplary embodiment, a method includes: configuring a common resource space having a plurality of time-frequency resources and code resources, where the common resource space includes a first portion for a first type of signaling and a second portion for a second type of signaling, where the first type of signaling includes at least one of persistent acknowledgement signaling and scheduling request signaling, where the second type of signaling includes dynamic acknowledgement signaling; and allocating, based on the configured common resource space, resources of the common resource space for the at least one of persistent acknowledgement signaling and scheduling request signaling.

11. An apparatus comprising:
-
at least one processor; and at least one memory including computer program instructions, the at least one memory and the computer program instructions being configured, with the at least one processor, to cause the apparatus at least to perform; configure a common logical resource space comprised of a plurality of time-frequency resources and code resources, wherein the common logical resource space is split within a physical resource block and is thereby comprised of a first portion for a first type of signaling and a second portion for a second type of signaling, said second portion being at the end of the configured common logical resource space, wherein the first type of signaling comprises at least one of persistent acknowledgement signaling and scheduling request signaling, wherein the second type of signaling comprises dynamic acknowledgement signaling, and wherein the first type of signaling and the second type of signaling share a common, staggered channelization structure; allocate, based on the configured common logical resource space, resources of the common logical resource space for the at least one of persistent acknowledgement signaling and scheduling request signaling; and signal the space indicative of the first portion to determine a location of the beginning of the second portion, wherein a resource index for the first type of signaling is signaled explicitly via higher layer signaling or radio resource control signaling, and wherein the first portion and the second portion partially overlap. - View Dependent Claims (12, 13, 14, 15)
