$\def\N{\mathbb{N}}$For any set $S\subseteq\N$ and $a\in \N$, we let $a+S =\{a+s: s\in S\}$. Are there infinite sets $A, S\subseteq \N$ such that $\{a+S: a\in A\}$ is an infinite partition of $\N$?

    $\begingroup$ To make things more symmetrical, does there exists $A,B\subset\mathbb N$ such that every $n\in\mathbb N$ can be written uniquely as $n=a+b$ with $a\in A$ and $b\in B$? $\endgroup$ Commented May 23 at 9:22

Yes, $A=$numbers with non-zero binary digits on even places, $S=$numbers with non-zero binary digits on odd places
