Abstract
An apparatus and a method are disclosed for wireless communication with an external device. The apparatus may be a user equipment (UE) provided for wireless communication with an external device. The UE includes a transceiver and a processor. The processor is configured to receive, via the transceiver, a radio resource control (RRC) signal; determine a virtual bandwidth part (vBWP) based on the RRC signal, the vBWP including a plurality of narrowband (NB) bandwidth parts (BWPs) in a carrier bandwidth for the UE to perform communication at a given time instance, and determine a bandwidth location in the carrier bandwidth of at least one of the plurality of NB BWPs. If a first relative frequency of the bandwidth location in a first NB BWP is the same as a second relative frequency of a bandwidth location in a second NB BWP, then information included in downlink control information (DCI) is re-used to identify the bandwidth location.
