Abstract: A cellular communication system employs a plurality of bandwidths. The cellular communication system comprises a plurality of base stations (101, 103) each of which transmits a reference signal comprising a Generalised Chirp-Like, GCL, sequence. The length of the GCL sequence is dependent on the bandwidth employed by the base station (101, 103). A sequence generator (105) provides a first subset of GCL sequences for a first bandwidth selected from a set of possible GCL sequences for the first bandwidth in response to properties of a sub-sequence of GCL sequences. The sub-sequence has a length corresponding to a different bandwidth. Sequence processors (107, 109) select GCL sequences for base stations (101, 103) employing the first bandwidth from the first subset of GCL sequences. The invention exploits characteristics of GCL sequences to enable, facilitate or improve multiple bandwidth operation.

According to the method, an incoming coding block is divided into a plurality of sub-blocks (step 1005). Each sub-block is divided into a plurality of windows (step 1010). An inter-window shuffle is then performed within each sub-block (step 1015). Each window is divided into two sub-windows (step 1020). Then an intra-window permutation is performed within each sub-window (step 1025).
