Classification: CPC H | IPC H

Claim 15:
16. An apparatus configured for wireless communication, the apparatus comprising:
at least one processor; and
a memory coupled to the at least one processor, wherein the at least one processor is configured:
to communicate peak to average power ratio (PAPR) shaping information by a user equipment (UE), wherein the PAPR shaping information comprises information regarding one or more PAPR shaping resources for a data signal to be processed for transmission;
generate a frequency domain data signal for the data signal;
process the frequency domain data signal using a PAPR shaping resource of the one or more PAPR shaping resources configured in accordance with information of the PAPR shaping information;
generate a time domain data signal from the frequency domain data signal having been processed using the PAPR shaping resource; and
transmit the time domain data signal, wherein the time domain data signal as transmitted comprises a Discrete Fourier transform (DFT) spread orthogonal frequency division multiplex (OFDM) (DFT-s-OFDM) signal having PAPR shaping for PAPR reduction provided in accordance with the frequency domain data signal having been processed using the PAPR shaping resource.
