1. Terminal point of a communication system,
wherein the terminal point is configured to transmit an uplink data transfer to a base station of the communication system,
wherein a point in time of transmission of the uplink data transfer is determined by the terminal point itself,
wherein the terminal point is configured to receive, after a specified time after the uplink data transfer, a downlink data transfer from the base station in a specified time interval, wherein the downlink data transfer comprises signaling information,
wherein the terminal point is configured to receive a point-to-multipoint data transfer from the base station on the basis of the signaling information.
