Claim:
1. A method comprising: receiving a configuration for a resource space comprising a plurality of time-frequency resources, wherein the resource space comprises 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 resource space, the first type of signaling comprises at least one of persistent acknowledgement signaling and scheduling request signaling, the second type of signaling comprises dynamic acknowledgement signaling, and the first type of signaling and the second type of signaling share a common channelization structure; receiving an allocation of resources of the resource space for the at least one of persistent acknowledgment signaling and scheduling request signaling, based on the configuration of the resource space; receiving a signal indicative of the first portion; and determining a location of the beginning of the second portion based on the first portion, wherein a resource index for the first type of signaling is received explicitly via higher layer signaling or radio resource control signaling.
