REFERENCE SIGNAL RESOURCE ALLOCATION

摘要

Sequence mapping for reference signal is disclosed in which the reference signal sequence at the fixed set of resource blocks around a predetermined common frequency is generated to be independent from the system bandwidth. The reference signal sequence may be generated around the predetermined common frequency or may be configured based on a cell identifier. Either such solution provides a system bandwidth independent means for a user equipment (UE) to detect the reference signal sequence for decoding a bandwidth information bearing signal received from the communicating base station.
