Abstract:
A communications device is configured to receive data from a wireless access interface transmitted by a mobile communications network. The wireless access interface provides a plurality of communications resource elements within a system bandwidth providing a host frequency range of a host carrier and reserved communications resources for preferable allocation to reduced capability devices, the reserved communications resources forming a virtual carrier. In each of a plurality of time divided units, the wireless access interface provides a shared channel of communications resources and a control channel formed within the communications resources of the system bandwidth of the host frequency range for communicating resource allocation messages to communications devices. The resource allocation messages allocate the communications resources of the shared channel to the communication devices within the system bandwidth and allocate the reserved communications resources to the reduced capability devices.

Claim (Index 1):
A communications device for receiving data via a wireless access interface, the communications device comprising:\n a transmitter configured to transmit signals via the wireless access interface; a receiver configured to receive signals via the wireless access interface; and a controller configured to control the transmitter and the receiver to transmit and to receive the signals in accordance with the wireless access interface, the wireless access interface providing\n a plurality of communications resources within a system bandwidth providing a host frequency range of a host carrier, \n reserved communications resources for allocation to reduced capability devices, the reserved communications resources forming a virtual carrier, and \n in each of a plurality of time divided units, a shared channel of the communications resources and a control channel formed within the communications resources of the system bandwidth of the host frequency range for communicating resource allocation messages to communications devices, the resource allocation messages for allocating the communications resources of the shared channel to the communication devices within the system bandwidth and for allocating communications resources of the reserved communications resources to the reduced capability devices, wherein the reserved communications resources include one or more communications resources which are not allocated for transmitting data to the reduced capability devices, and \n the controller is configured with the receiver to\n receive a resource allocation message from the control channel of the communications resources of the system bandwidth, allocating resources within the reserved communications resources of the virtual carrier for receiving data, \n determine the communications resources of the reserved communications resources which will contain signals representing the data from the communications resources allocated within the reserved communications resources by the received resource allocation message and excluding any of the one or more communications resources allocated by the resource allocation message which are not allocated for transmitting data to the reduced capability devices within the allocated communications resources, and \n receive the data from the determined communications resources of the reserved communications resources of the virtual carrier.
