Frequency hopping

摘要

A communications node operable to communicate with another communications node over a communications channel having a plurality of frequency resources, the communications node includes data defining a division of the communications channel into a plurality of contiguous sub-bands each having N frequency resources, wherein each frequency resource in a sub-band has a corresponding frequency resource in each of the other sub-bands, data defining an initial allocation of the frequency resources, a resource determination module operable to apply a frequency shift to the initially allocated frequency resources in accordance with a frequency hopping sequence to determine frequency resources to use for communicating information with the other communications node, wherein the frequency shift applied moves the initially allocated frequency resources to corresponding frequency resources in another sub-band, a transceiver for communicating information with the other communications node using the determined frequency resource.

1. A user equipment comprising:
a transceiver circuit configured to receive, from a base station, information which is related to resource allocation; and a processor configured to determine a communication resource calculated based on A mod B; wherein the transceiver circuit is further configured to transmit uplink data using the communication resource, wherein A is determined based on a first value and a second value, wherein B is determined based on the second value, wherein the first value is obtained from the information, and wherein the second value is determined based on an uplink bandwidth.
