Abstract:
Methods and systems for multi-protocol transmissions in shared spectrum are disclosed where an OFDM transmitter is configured to generate transmissions associated with one OFDM technology or protocol using subcarriers of another OFDM technology. Generally, multi-protocol transmissions as described herein may be performed sequentially (e.g. in a time division multiplexing fashion) or concurrently (e.g. during the same or an overlapping time interval). For concurrent transmissions, an OFDM transmitter may be configured to map or assign the different OFDM signals to different subsets of the available OFDM subcarriers such that the data contained therein can be transmitted at the same or during an overlapping time interval. In one application, an LTE transmitter is configured to use different subsets of the LTE subcarriers for concurrent LTE and 802.11 transmissions that can respectively be decoded by LTE and 802.11 receivers.

Claim (Index 18):
A OFDM transmitter configured for OFDM signal transmissions using a first plurality of subcarriers having a first subcarrier frequency spacing defining a first symbol duration, the OFDM transmitter comprising circuitry containing instructions which, when executed, cause the transmitter to:\n generate a first OFDM signal containing data associated with a first OFDM communication protocol, generate a second OFDM signal containing data associated with a second OFDM communication protocol, and transmit, during one or more first symbol durations, the first OFDM signal using a first subset of subcarriers from the first plurality of subcarriers, and the second OFDM signal using a second subset of subcarriers from the first plurality of subcarriers, different from the first subset.
