Providing for mixed single carrier and multi-carrier uplink transmission in a wireless communication environment is described herein. By way of example, a network is provided that can identify uplink capabilities or restrictions of respective devices of a mixed population of mobile devices, and schedule single carrier or multi-carrier transmissions accordingly. In some aspects, different subsets of multi-carrier transmission can be given priority over other subsets. Based on the priority, the network can schedule/modify relative transmit powers for respective subsets, accommodate power constraints of higher level networking protocols, and optionally give priority to one or more of the distinct transmissions. In addition, priority can be given to respective subsets of the multi-carrier transmission, to ensure high quality or reliability for important transmissions. Thus, provided is an integrated network that accommodates a powerful mix of single carrier and multi-carrier services for a mixed population of mobile devices. |
