METHOD FOR RESOURCE ALLOCATION IN A WIRELESS COMMUNICATION SYSTEM

摘要

The present invention provides a method for allocating portions of a frame to a plurality of mobile units including a plurality of frequency subcarrier sets and a plurality of symbols. The method includes determining at least one zone comprising at least one of the plurality of subcarrier sets and at least one of the plurality of symbols and determining a plurality of subzones. Each subzone includes at least one of the plurality of subcarrier sets and at least one of the plurality of symbols in the at least one zone. The method also includes associating each of the plurality of mobile units with at least one of the subzones and allocating a portion of the subcarrier sets and symbols in each subzone to the mobile units associated with each subzone.
