主权项

1. A base station comprising:
transmit circuitry; and process circuitry to control the transmit circuitry to transmit, to a wireless communication device, an orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) signal that includes allocation information in a first carrier, the allocation information to indicate, for a wireless communication device, a location of data in a second carrier, wherein a spacing between the first carrier and the second carrier is equal to, or a multiple of, a spacing between adjacent subcarriers of the first carrier.
