Abstract:
1. A method for wireless communication between a network entity and a plurality of user equipment, wherein the network entity communicates with the plurality of user equipment on a plurality of subcarriers, the method comprising: generating a first transmission for a single subcarrier from the plurality of subcarriers, the single subcarrier being assigned to a first user equipment from the plurality of user equipment, wherein generating the first transmission further comprises generating a continuous sinusoidal signal at a frequency corresponding to the single subcarrier assigned to the first user equipment, and modulating the continuous sinusoidal signal with at least one modulation symbol; and sending the first transmission on the single subcarrier by the first user equipment, the first transmission being sent concurrently with a single-carrier frequency division multiple access (SC-FDMA) transmission sent by a second user equipment from the plurality of user equipment, the SC-FDMA transmission sent on multiple subcarriers from the plurality of subcarriers, the multiple subcarriers being different from the single subcarrier and assigned to the second user equipment.
