Abstract
A base station transmits, during a first period, a first plurality of voice packets of a first talking period on a first plurality of subcarriers of a first carrier. The base station transmits, during a second period, a second plurality of voice packets of a second talking period on a second plurality of subcarriers of a second carrier. The base station transmits, in the first period and the second period, data traffic packets on a third plurality of subcarriers. There is at least one guard band between at least two subcarriers in the third plurality of subcarriers.
Claims20
A method for voice and data transmission comprising:
- transmitting, during a first period, a first plurality of voice packets of at least one first talking period in a plurality of talking periods on a first plurality of subcarriers of a first carrier in a plurality of carriers, wherein there is no guard band between any two subcarriers in the first plurality of subcarriers;
- transmitting, during a second period, a second plurality of voice packets of at least one second talking period in the plurality of talking periods on a second plurality of subcarriers of a second carrier in the plurality of carriers, wherein the first carrier is different from the second carrier;
- and
- transmitting, in the first period and the second period, data traffic packets on a third plurality of subcarriers, wherein there is at least one guard band between at least two subcarriers in the third plurality of subcarriers;
- and
- wherein each of the following plurality of subcarriers is a plurality of Single Carrier-Frequency Division Multiple Access (SC-FDMA) subcarriers:
- the first plurality of subcarriers;
- the second plurality of subcarriers;
- and the third plurality of subcarriers.
6 more elements
A base station comprising:
- one or more processors;
- and
- memory storing instructions that, when executed, cause the base station to:
- transmit, during a first period, a first plurality of voice packets of at least one first talking period in a plurality of talking periods on a first plurality of subcarriers of a first carrier in a plurality of carriers, wherein there is no guard band between any two subcarriers in the first plurality of subcarriers;
- transmit, during a second period, a second plurality of voice packets of at least one second talking period in the plurality of talking periods on a second plurality of subcarriers of a second carrier in the plurality of carriers, wherein the first carrier is different from the second carrier;
- and
- transmit, in the first period and the second period, data traffic packets on a third plurality of subcarriers, wherein there is at least one guard band between at least two subcarriers in the third plurality of subcarriers;
- and
- wherein each of the following plurality of subcarriers is a plurality of Frequency Division Multiple Access (FDMA) subcarriers:
- the first plurality of subcarriers;
- the second plurality of subcarriers;
- and the third plurality of subcarriers.
