10.1.4.1.3 Group hopping
For the reference signal for NPUSCH format 1, sequence-group hopping can be enabled where the sequence-group number in slot
of a radio frame is defined by a group hopping pattern and a sequence-shift pattern
according to
where the number of reference signal sequences available for each resource unit size, is given by Table 10.1.4.1.3-1.

Sequence-group hopping can be enabled or disabled by means of the cell-specific parameter groupHoppingEnabled provided by higher layers. Sequence-group hopping for NPUSCH can be disabled for a certain UE through the higher-layer parameter groupHoppingDisabled despite being enabled on a cell basis unless the NPUSCH transmission corresponds to a Random Access Response Grant or a retransmission of the same transport block as part of the contention based random access procedure.
The group-hopping pattern is given by
where for . When , for frame structure type 1, is the slot number of the first slot of the resource unit and for frame structure type 2, is the frame number of the first slot of the resource unit. The pseudo-random sequence
is defined by clause 7.2. The pseudo-random sequence generator shall be initialized with at the beginning of the resource unit for
and in every even slot for
.
The sequence-shift pattern is given by
where is given by higher-layer parameter groupAssignmentNPUSCH. If no value is signalled,
.
10.1.4.2 Mapping to physical resources
The sequence shall be multiplied with the amplitude scaling factor
and mapped in sequence starting with
to the sub-carriers.
The set of sub-carriers used in the mapping process shall be identical to the corresponding NPUSCH transmission as defined in clause 10.1.3.6.
The mapping to resource elements shall be in increasing order of first
, then
, and finally the slot number. The values of the symbol index
in a slot are given in Table 10.1.4.2-1.

that is overlapping with any fully reserved uplink subframe as defined in clause 16.5 in [4],
– for , the demodulation reference signal transmission is postponed until the next NB-IoT uplink subframe that is not fully reserved.
– for , the demodulation reference signal transmission in the slot is postponed until the next slot spanning over two contiguous uplink subframes not overlapping with any uplink subframe that is fully reserved.
– In a subframe for or a slot for
that is not overlapping with any fully reserved uplink subframe, any demodulation reference signal transmission in SC-FDMA symbols overlapping with reserved symbols is dropped.
