content of the uplink data is selected as the content to duplicate based on the size of the uplink data waiting to be sent can be accommodated by a transport block of the selected second radio resource from the second pool of radio resources,
wherein one of:
the selecting the scheduling request message and the uplink data is in response to a failed attempt to send the scheduling request on another radio resource from the first pool in parallel with the uplink data being sent on another radio resource from the second pool;
