1. A terminal for use in a telecommunications system, wherein the terminal is configured to:
receive downlink signals using downlink resources in a frequency band and in a time slot;
notify a base station of uplink data to be transmitted;
receive, in response to the notification, an indication of a selected set of resources for transmitting the uplink data, wherein the set of resources for transmitting the uplink data is selected based on a subset of the frequency band and on a subset of the time slot of the downlink resources; and
transmit the uplink data using the selected set of resources,
wherein the downlink resources include a reserved set of resources, the set of resources being selected from resources of the downlink resources outside of the reserved set of resources, thereby to use the reserved set of resources exclusively for downlink transmissions,
wherein the reserved set of resources is selected based on information about downlink and/or uplink transmissions for a neighboring base station so as to reduce interferences between transmissions for the base station and the neighboring base station, and
wherein a system bandwidth for the selected set of resources includes a first portion that is distributed and a second portion different from the first portion that is contiguous.
