System and method for bandwidth division and resource block allocation

摘要

Systems and apparatus for assigning sub-bands to numerologies are provided. A system bandwidth is divided into bandwidth portions, and the bandwidth portions are used as the unit of assignment for assigning sub-bands to numerologies. Systems and methods are also provided for allocating resource blocks over a bandwidth such as a sub-band. The available bandwidth is divided into sub-band portions, and the bandwidth portions are used as the unit of allocation for allocating resource blocks to user equipment.
