Abstract

The invention concerns a method for performing frequency selective control channel scheduling in networks using an OFDM spectrum, whereby a base station (BS-BS) broadcasts on at least one predefined subcarrier which is known to all mobile terminals (T-T) a signaling information common to all mobile terminals (T-T) indicating the position of at least one subcarrier of at least one frequency selective shared control channel and at least one identification of at least one addressed mobile terminal, the base station (BS-BS) sends signaling information for said at least one addressed mobile terminal at the indicated position of said at least one subcarrier of said at least one frequency selective shared control channel, and at least one mobile terminal (T-T) measures at least one subcarrier of said at least one frequency selective shared control channel for channel quality estimation, a base station (BS-BS), a mobile terminal (T-T) and a network (CN) therefor.
