Abstract
The method for transmitting a data signal including a plurality of data packets from a base station to a radio device comprises the steps of: subdividing each data packet into at least a first data sub-packet and a second data sub-packet; transmitting simultaneously the first data sub-packet on a first portion of total resources, having a first reuse frequency factor, and the second data sub-packet on at least one second portion of total resources having second reuse factor, said first reuse factor being different from said second reuse factor.
Claims22
A method for transmitting a data signal including a plurality of data packets from a base station to a radio device, said method comprising:
- subdividing each data packet into at least a first data sub-packet and a second data sub-packet;
- transmitting the first data sub-packet on a first portion of total resources, having a first reuse factor, and the second data sub-packet on at least one second portion of total resources having a second reuse factor, said first reuse factor being different from said second reuse factor.
A method for receiving a data signal including at least one data packet at a radio device, said method comprising:
- receiving a first data sub-packet on a first portion of total resources having a first reuse factor,
- receiving a second data sub-packet on a second portion of total resources, said second portion of total resources having a second reuse factor, said first reuse factor being different from said second reuse factor;
- combining the first and second data sub-packets into a data packet.
A base station for transmitting a data signal including at least one data packet comprising
- means for subdividing each data packet into at least a first data sub-packet and a second data sub-packet;
- a first transmitter for transmitting the first data sub-packet on a first portion of total resources, having a first reuse factor, and
- a second transmitter for transmitting the second data sub-packet on at least one second portion of total resources having a second reuse factor, said first reuse factor being different from said second reuse factor.
A radio device, for receiving a data signal including at least one data packet from a base station in a network, said radio device comprising
- means for receiving a first signal including a first sub-packet on a first resource portion, said first resource portion having a first reuse factor,
- means for receiving a second signal including a second sub-packet on a second resource portion, said second resource portion having a second reuse factor, the first reuse factor being different from the second reuse factor.
