A method of operating a signaling radio node in a radio access network is provided. The method includes transmitting control signaling to a feedback radio node. The control signaling includes control information having a bit pattern. The bit pattern has a subpattern with M bits in which the control information pertains to feedback signaling. A number M1 of the M bits of the subpattern is assigned to represent an assignment indication, and a number M2 of the M bits of the subpattern is assigned to represent a resource indication in which M1 and M2 are determined based on a size indication pertaining to the feedback signaling. The disclosure also pertains to related methods and devices.
