Abstract

A method and apparatus of signaling radio resource allocation in a wireless communication system includes the time-frequency resources into multiple regions; defining a channel tree within at least one region, wherein the channel tree has base nodes which are determined using the area of the region and the area of a base node; determining a channel identifier assignment for a mobile station, wherein the channel identifier corresponds to a collection of base nodes from a channel tree; transmitting an indication of the determined channel identifier to the mobile station; and transmitting a packet to a mobile station or receiving a packet from the mobile station using the physical time-frequency resources, which correspond to the channel identifier.
