MULTI-LENGTH ZT DFT-S-OFDM TRANSMISSION
First Claim
1. A method performed by a network device, the method comprising:
- selecting, by the network device, an allocation of frequency resources for transmission, wherein the frequency resources include a plurality of subbands;
assigning, by the network device, one or more of the plurality of subbands to each of a plurality of wireless transmit/receive units (WTRUs);
assigning, by the network device, a zero head length and a zero tail length to each of the assigned one or more of the plurality of subbands based on one or more patterns;
generating, by the network device, a multi-length zero tail (ZT) discrete Fourier transform-spread orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (DFT-s-OFDM) signal for the assigned one or more of the plurality of subbands with a zero head based on the assigned zero head length and a zero tail based on the assigned zero tail length; and
transmitting, by the network device, the multi-length ZT DFT-s OFDM signal.

Abstract
Techniques may be used to generate a multi-length Zero Tail (ZT) Discrete Fourier Transform-spread Orthogonal Frequency Domain Modulation (DFT-s-OFDM) signal for transmission. A selected allocation of frequency resources may include a plurality of subbands. Subbands may be assigned to wireless transmit/receive units (WTRUs) (i.e., users), and zero head length and zero tail length may be assigned to each of the assigned subbands according to a pattern to combat inter-symbol interference (ISI). The ZT DFT-s OFDM signal may generated for transmission over the assigned subbands in accordance with the assigned zero head length and the assigned zero tail length.
