Abstract
A user terminal is disclosed including a receiver that receives a downlink signal that is transmitted in repetitions in narrow bands to which frequency hopping is applied, and a processor that specifies a pattern of the applied frequency hopping based on a starting index that indicates a first narrow band in the narrow bands and a frequency offset that is a shift in a frequency direction from the first narrow band. The processor causes the receiver to receive the downlink signal using the specified pattern. Each of the narrow bands is a part of a system band. The user terminal communicates using the narrow bands only. The downlink signal starts being allocated to the first narrow band.
