Transmission of information using cyclically shifted sequences

Abstract

Techniques for transmitting information using cyclically shifted sequences are described. In one design, first and second sequences may be generated by cyclically shifting a base sequence by first and second amounts, respectively. The base sequence may be a CAZAC sequence, a PN sequence, or some other sequence having good correlation properties. The cyclic shifts for the first and second sequences may be determined based on a hopping pattern. A first modulated sequence may be generated based on the first sequence and a first modulation symbol and may be sent in a first time interval. A second modulated sequence may be generated based on the second sequence and a second modulation symbol and may be sent in a second time interval. Each modulated sequence may be sent on K consecutive subcarriers using localized frequency division multiplexing (LFDM)
