Abstract

Techniques relating to generating and receiving radio frames with multiple partitions are disclosed. A mobile device may include a wireless radio, one or more antennas, and one or more processors. In some embodiments, the mobile device is configured to receive a frame of wireless data that includes a plurality of partitions and partition data. In some embodiments, at least one of the partitions encodes local content and at least one of the partitions encodes regional content. In some embodiments, partition data indicates which partitions encode which type of content. In some embodiments, the mobile device is configured to select, based on the partition data, one or more of the plurality of partitions and decode the selected one or more partitions to determine data represented by the OFDM symbols in the selected one or more partitions.
