Abstract
Aspects of the disclosure provide an apparatus that includes a receiving circuit and a baseband processing circuit. The receiving circuit is configured to receive signals transmitted from another apparatus to the apparatus and generate digital samples in response to the received signals. The received signals have a plurality of frequency sub-bands allocated as transmission resources. A specific frequency sub-band is allocated to the apparatus to carry data and control information to the apparatus. The baseband processing circuit is configured to receive the digital samples, process the digital samples to generate symbols in the respective frequency sub-bands, and decode the symbols in the respective frequency sub-bands to determine the specific frequency sub-band that is allocated to the apparatus.
