METHODS FOR EFFICIENT RESOURCE UTILIZATION WITH INTERLACE AND/OR INTERLACE OFFSET SWITCHING

摘要

Disclosed are methods for switching group assignment of an access terminal (AT). One of the methods includes the steps of receiving a control message indicating a current group to which the AT is assigned and an assigned group to which the AT is to be switched, and decoding data in a next-received group interlace which corresponds to the assigned group. Methods for interlace offset switching of an AT are also provided.
