Abstract
In one aspect, a method for communicating in a wireless communication network includes transmitting or receiving () using an LTE-M carrier within the bandwidth of an NR carrier such that the LTE-M carrier overlaps at least a portion of NR guard band. The transmitting or receiving may be subject to aligning subcarriers in LTE-M and NR on the same grid and subject to raster placement. The LTE-M carrier may be positioned within the NR carrier so as to minimize the number of NR resource blocks occupied by the LTE-M carrier.
