Resource sharing among different OFDM numerologies
Abstract:
An integrated circuit includes control circuitry and transmitting circuitry. The control circuitry maps data or a reference signal onto resources including orthogonal subcarriers of a first numerology and a second numerology, which differ at least by subcarrier spacing and are frequency-multiplexed on a subcarrier basis. The control circuitry assigns no transmit power to at least one subcarrier located between a subcarrier of the first numerology and a subcarrier of the second numerology. The subcarriers of the second numerology include: inter-numerology-orthogonal subcarriers, each of which is centrally aligned with a subcarrier of the first numerology, and non-inter-numerology-orthogonal subcarriers not centrally aligned with any subcarrier of the first numerology and located between two adjacent subcarriers of the first numerology. The control circuitry assigns no transmit power to at least one of the non-inter-numerology-orthogonal subcarriers. The transmitting circuitry transmits the mapped data or reference signal.
