Psc is 18 subcarriers and Nsym is 6, 7, and 5 OFDMA symbols. Logical Resource Unit (LRU) is the basic logical unit for localized and distributed resource allocations. Distributed Resource Unit (DRU) achieves frequency diversity gain by grouping of subcarriers which are spread across the distributed resources within a frequency partition. Localized Resource Unit or Contiguous Resource Unit (CRU) achieves frequency- selective scheduling gain by grouping subcarriers which are contiguous across the localized resource allocations within a frequency partition. 14 DL/UL Subchannelization and Permutation . Concurrent distributed and localized transmissions in the subframe – UL/DL DRU: tiles/tone-pair permutation ( similar to UL/DL PUSC in the legacy standard) – Sub-band CRU: localized resource with band selection (similar to band AMC in the legacy standard) – Mini-band CRU: diversity resource with dedicated pilots . Concurrent frequency reuse-1 and FFR – Up to 4 frequency partitions: one reuse-1 and three reuse-3 – Low power transmission is allowed on other segments’ reuse-3 frequency partitions . UL is similar to DL structure except – UL DRU use tile similar to PUSC tile (instead of subcarrier) – Legacy support with IEEE 802.16m PUSC mode (4x6 tile) 15 DL/UL Subchannelization and Permutation 16 Sub-band Mini-band Frequency CRU/DRU Subcarrier permutation Partitioning Permutation Partitioning Allocation CRU(FP0) 0 1 2 3 FP0 20 0 21 1 SB SB 2 PRU 0 0 DRU(FP0) 1 1 3 12 0 12 1 2 2 20 28 2 3 3 36 8 8 28 44 3 36 4 9 9 44 13 5 10 10 29 11 11 13 6 21 7 16 16 29 CRU(FP1) 8 17 17 8 9 18 18 9 10 19 19 FP1 24 24 8 10 11 11 12 25 25 9 16 13 26 26 10 17 48 Physical Resource Units Resource Physical 48 27 27 11 Units Resource Logical 48 14 18 15 32 32 16 19 16 33 33 17 17 34 34 18 18 35 35 19 DRU(FP1) 19 40 40 37 37 20 41 41 45 45 21 42 42 14 14 22 43 43 22 22 23 4 4 24 5 5 6 6 FP2 CRU(FP2) 25 24 24 26 7 7 25 25 27 26 26 28 MB PMB 27 27 29 12 12 32 32 30 13 20 33 33 31 14 28 34 34 32 15 36 35 35 33 20 44 30 34 21 13 38 35 DRU(FP2) 22 21 46 30 36 23 29 15 37 28 37 38 38 46 29 45 FP3 15 39 30 14 40 31 22 40 41 41 36 30 42 CRU(FP3) 42 37 38 40 43 38 46 43 41 44 4 39 15 5 42 45 44 23 43 46 45 31 6 4 47 46 39 7 5 47 47 23 6 31 39 7 47 DRU(FP3) 23 31 39 47 Multi-cell steps 17 DL/UL Pilot Patterns .
