Determining a location of a frequency-domain resource block
First Claim
1. A method comprising:
- determining a first set of frequency locations within a frequency range, wherein adjacent frequency locations in the first set of frequency locations are spaced with a first spacing value;
determining a second set of frequency locations within the frequency range, wherein adjacent frequency locations in the second set of frequency locations are spaced with a second spacing value;
determining a first scalar and a second scalar;
determining a location of a frequency-domain resource block within the frequency range using the first spacing value and the second spacing value, wherein the location of the frequency-domain resource block is based on the sum of a product of the first scalar and the first spacing value and a product of the second scalar and the second spacing value; and
communicating data on the frequency-domain resource block using the determined location of the resource block.

Abstract
Apparatuses, methods, and systems are disclosed for determining a location of a frequency-domain resource block using frequency spacing values. One apparatus includes a transceiver that communicates with a base unit in a mobile communication network a processor that determines a first set of frequency locations within a frequency range. Here, adjacent frequency locations in the first set are spaced with a first spacing value. Additionally, the processor determines a second set of frequency locations within the same frequency range. Here, adjacent frequency locations in the second set are spaced with a second spacing value. The processor calculates a location of a frequency-domain resource block within the frequency range using the first and second spacing to values and also controls the transceiver to communicate data on the frequency-domain resource block using the calculated location.
