SUPPORTING MULTIPLE ACCESS TECHNOLOGIES IN A WIRELESS ENVIRONMENT

摘要

Support for multiple wireless access technologies in a common radio access network is provided. In one aspect, a method of wireless communication includes determining whether to map a shared data channel to at least one resource element. The mapping determination is based at least in part on whether the shared data channel is associated with a legacy wireless technology or an advanced wireless technology. The method further includes transmitting the shared data channel based at least in part on the mapping determination and transmitting a reference signal in the at least one resource element.
