Abstract  Abstract

Techniques for allocating and mapping resources in a wireless communication system are described. The system may use hop-ports to facilitate allocation and use of subcarriers. In one aspect the hop-ports may be partitioned into multiple subzones with each subzone including a configurable number of hop-ports. The hop-ports within each subzone may be permuted or shuffled based on a permutation function. After permutation the hop-ports in all subzones may be mapped to the subcarriers based on local or global hopping. In another aspect a set of hop-ports may be mapped to a set of subcarriers. A hop-port may be mapped to an unavailable subcarrier and may then be remapped to another available subcarrier. In yet another aspect a set of hop-ports may be mapped to a set of subcarriers distributed (e.g. evenly) across all subcarriers but avoiding subcarriers in a reserved zone.
