Abstract

La présente invention concerne un procédé et un appareil permettant d'effectuer une indexation de bloc de ressources physiques (PRB) dans un système de communication sans fil. Un équipement utilisateur (UE) reçoit des informations sur un décalage entre un bloc de signal de synchronisation (SS) et une bande passante de système à partir d'un réseau par l'intermédiaire du bloc SS et effectue l'indexation de PRB sur la bande passante de système sur la base des informations sur le décalage.
