Abstract
A method performed by a network device processor to determine a number of available resource blocks, RBs, in a time slot of a spectrum of a given bandwidth includes determining whether or not the slot is assigned to LTE and NR. The method includes responsive to the slot being assigned to LTE and NR and starts from a low frequency with NR and ends at a high frequency with LTE, and the RB segment at a lowest spectrum part assigned to NR and the RB segment at a highest spectrum part assigned to LTE: responsive to a number m of LTE segments crossing or above a DC subcarrier, determining that the number of available RBs in the slot is A+p−(m−1), or B−p−(m−1), where A and B are LTE and NR cell channel bandwidth, respectively, and p is the number based on a cell channel bandwidth.
