Abstract  Abstract

Embodiments of a base station and method for resource allocation using localized and distributed resource blocks are generally described herein. The base station comprises processing circuitry to allocate localized resources to user stations based on receipt of channel quality information received from the user stations and to allocate distributed resource to user stations based on non-receipt of channel quality information. The base station also comprises physical layer circuitry to transmit control information on a physical channel to indicate the resources that are allocated to each scheduled user station.

Embodiments of a wireless access network and method for allocation time and frequency resources are generally described herein. Other embodiments may be described and claimed. In some embodiments a base station allocates contiguous groups of data subcarriers of a downlink subframe to closed-loop user stations and allocates the remaining data subcarriers of the downlink subframe to open-loop user stations to increase frequency diversity.
