Abstract
Facilitating frequency hopping for single carrier, frequency division multiple access (SC-FDMA) transmission is described herein. By way of example, user data transmitted within a transmission allocation unit can be frequency shifted with respect to time based slots of the allocation unit. As a result, frequency hopping can be accomplished while preserving single carrier constraints and a low peak to average power ratio (PAPR). Furthermore, various frequency shifted mechanisms are disclosed to accomplish preservation of single carrier restraints. For example, a scheduler can select between cyclic frequency shifting, transposed frequency shifting, and multiplexing of frequency selective scheduled and frequency hopped data based on an audit of scheduled data for the transmission allocation unit. As a result, the reduction in interference achieved through frequency hopping can be combined with the low PAPR for various data allocation configurations.
