The disclosure relates to raster design for narrowband operation for machine type communications. Aspects of the present disclosure provide techniques for design of channel raster for narrowband operation. One example method, performed by a base station, generally includes determining, based on one or more conditions, an exact frequency location of one or more channels to perform narrowband communications with a user equipment. The method also includes transmitting an indication of the one or more conditions to the user equipment. The method further includes communicating with the UE, based atleast in part on the exact frequency location of the one channel. 本公开涉及用于机器类通信的窄带操作的光栅设计。本公开的各方面提供了用于窄带操作的信道光栅设计的技术。一个由基站执行的示例方法通常包括基于一个或多个状况，来确定一个或多个信道的准确频率位置，以执行与用户装备的窄带通信。该方法还包括向用户装备传送该一个或多个状况的指示。该方法进一步包括至少部分地基于一个信道的准确频率位置来与UE进行通信。
