US Patent 11424792 Coordinated multipoint systems

A flexible channel bandwidth for mobile radio communications is provided by provisioning a set of Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing (OFDM) subcarriers for mobile radio communications; encoding data symbols with polyphase codes derived from a discrete Fourier transform to produce encoded data symbols; and modulating the encoded data symbols onto the OFDM subcarriers to produce a superposition signal that resembles a single-carrier signal and has one of a plurality of different symbol durations. The provisioning comprises selecting one of a plurality of different selectable subcarrier spacings, to provide for the one of the plurality of different symbol durations.
