Abstract:

Methods, systems, and devices are described for resource scheduling for different services in a wireless communications system. A base station or a user equipment (UE) operating within a wireless communication system may, for example, communicate using two or more different configurations of resource (e.g., symbol) duration, while maintaining a common tone spacing, bandwidth, transmission time interval (TTI) designation, or the like. For instance, an orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) symbol may be subdivided or segmented, and each segment, which may include a cyclic prefix, may be utilized as a resource unit.
