Dosn't it alllow the choice whithout A nor B for their minOccurs=0?
Just set minOccurs to 1 then. However, nothing prevent you from two A or two B then.
Substition group would do.
I guess you're thinking of making A and B member of Child substitution group, and requiring a sequence of 1 to 2 Child element in parent ? It won't solve the problem of two A or two B, as any other constraint considering child element separatly.
