Fine-grain and backward-compliant resource allocation

摘要

There is provided fine-grain and backward-compliant resource allocation, including allocating, to a control channel, one of a first plurality of bandwidths being standardized for a first radio access standard, and allocating, to a data channel, one of a second plurality of bandwidths being standardized for a second radio access standard, the second bandwidths plurality exceeding the first bandwidths plurality in terms of at least one of granularity and range. The thus disclosed resource allocation may exemplarily be applied on a downlink.

1. A method, comprising
allocating, to a control channel, one of a first plurality of bandwidths being standardized for a first radio access standard, and allocating, to a data channel, one of a second plurality of bandwidths being standardized for a second radio access standard, the second plurality of bandwidths exceeding the first plurality of bandwidths in terms of at least granularity and/or range, wherein the first radio access standard is in accordance with release 8 of a long-term evolution specification, and/or the second radio access standard is in accordance with release 9 or advanced of a long-term evolution specification.
