RESOURCE ALLOCATION DATA SIGNALING METHOD, METHOD PERFORMED BY A USER DEVICE TO DETERMINE A FREQUENCY ALLOCATION, USER DEVICE, DEPLOYABLE OR DETAILED INSTRUCTIONS TO BE DETERMINED OR TO BE DETAILED APPARATUS FOR RECEIVING OR DECODING ALLOCATIONS FROM SUB-CARRIERS. Effective encoding techniques are described in the present invention for encoding resource allocation data to be signaled to a number of user devices in a communication system. In an encoding technique, a resource allocation bit pattern is passed to all users, along with a resource ID for each user. Each user then identifies their allocated subcarriers with the received allocation bit pattern and the received resource ID. In another coding technique, a code tree is used to generate a value representing subcarrier allocation. The user device then uses the code tree to determine subcarrier allocation from the flagged value.
