This is useful for LTE since it makes possible to exploit frequency dependence scheduling . For instance, it would be possible to exploit the fact that user 1 might have a better radio link quality on some specific bandwidth area of the available bandwidth.
Read moreWhat is FDMA in LTE?
SC-FDMA is a hybrid modulation scheme that combines the low peak-to-average ratio (PAR) of traditional single-carrier formats such as GSM with the multipath resistance and in-channel frequency scheduling flexibility of orthogonal frequency-division multiplexing (OFDM). Acronyms galore: LTE history and context.
