A communication method for a communication network includes transmitting first control information for a first frame from a hub to a plurality of user nodes, and receiving first data bursts in the first frame from first and second user nodes according to the first control information. A start of the first frame from the first and second user nodes occurs simultaneously at the hub. The method also includes transmitting second control information, based on demand information received from the first and second nodes, for a second frame from the hub after transmitting the first control information, receiving second data bursts in the second frame according to the second control information, and receiving the second frame at the hub following the first frame.
