A method realized by a
MIMO OFDM transmitter (100) of a
base station for transmitting data to at least a first
user equipment (21) having
MIMO OFDM
receiver (200) using a first service type having a first numerology (M) and to a second
user equipment (22) having
MIMO OFDM
receiver (200) using a second service type having a second numerology (N), where said first numerology (M) and said second numerology (N) are different than each other, characterized by comprising following steps: receiving at least a first input
signal having n number of OFDM symbols to be transmitted to the first
user equipment (21); applying n number of inverse
fast Fourier transform (IFFT) to the first input
signal, adding a first virtual
cyclic prefix (411) to each OFDM sample and generating first OFDM symbols (410) for the first service; applying a first
fast Fourier transform (FFT) having larger FFT size than n and m to first OFDM symbols; receiving (410) at least a second input
signal having m number OFDM samples to be transmitted to the second user equipment (22); applying m number of inverse
fast Fourier transform (IFFT) to the second input signal, adding a second virtual
cyclic prefix (421) to each OFDM sample and generating second OFDM symbols (420) for the second service; where first
cyclic prefix and second cyclic prefix are different than each other; and first cyclic prefix and second cyclic prefix are lower in size than the largest cyclic prefix in a predetermined numerology table; applying the first fast
Fourier transform (FFT) to second OFDM symbols (420);
multiplexing (420) first OFDM symbols (410) and second OFDM symbols (420) depending on number of transmitting antennas (190); applying Inverse
Fast Fourier Transform (IFFT) to multiplexed first OFDM symbols (410), second OFDM symbols (420), adding an encapsulating prefix (310) and generating encapsulating OFDM symbols (300) for each transmitting antenna; transmitting encapsulating OFDM symbols (300) symbols through transmitting antennas (190).
