MAXIMIZE POWER BOOSTING USING AN INTERLACE DESIGN BASED ON RESOURCE BLOCKS

摘要

A user equipment (UE) transmits an uplink signal in a wireless network which provides an interlace structure in a frequency domain for uplink transmission. The UE identifies a frequency range which is shared by UEs in the wireless network and is partitioned into N interlaces, N being an integer greater than one. Each interlace is formed by a sequence of resource blocks (RBs) that are non-adjacent and equidistant in frequency. According to a first method, the UE transmits the uplink signal combined with a unique bit sequence to a base station in the wireless network. The transmitted uplink signal spreads across all of the N interlaces. According to a second method, the UE transmits the uplink signal using a different one of the N interlaces in each of N consecutive symbol periods.
