Abstract:
1. A method of resource allocation associated with a shared frequency band, the method comprising: receiving, by a wireless transmit/receive unit (WTRU), resource allocation information associated with a component carrier and at least one carrier segment, the component carrier and the least one carrier segment comprising a plurality of resource block groups (RBG), wherein a size of a resource block group (RBG) of the component carrier and the at least one carrier segment is based on a combined number of resource blocks (RB) of the component carrier and the at least one carrier segment divided by a number of RBGs of the component carrier as determined by 3GPP Rel-10 rounded up to a next highest whole number; determining at least one RBG allocated to the WTRU using the resource allocation information; and receiving and decoding the at least one RBG allocated to the WTRU.
