FREQUENCY DIVERSITY TECHNIQUES FOR SINGLE FREQUENCY NETWORKS

Abstract:

Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. Some wireless communications networks may implement aspects of a single frequency network (SFN), which may support multicast and broadcast transmissions. In some cases, a base station may use directional beamforming techniques to transmit a message to a user equipment (UE) using a first frequency configuration of the SFN. The base station may adjust the first frequency configuration to a second frequency configuration, and may transmit a retransmission of the message to the UE using the second frequency configuration.
