Techniques for distributing content to mobile computing devices, such as in the context of a vehicle-based wireless network, are described. In some examples, a content provider uses a cellular network to initially transmit a content item to a multi-network communication device in a first vehicle. The first vehicle device then uses a local Wi-Fi network to further transmit randomly selected portions of the content item to devices on nearby vehicles, which may also further propagate the content item portions to other vehicles. Vehicle devices may also specifically request content portions by broadcasting requests to neighboring vehicle devices via local Wi-Fi communication and/or communicating with the content provider via the cellular network. Upon the occurrence of a condition, such as a passage of time, the content provider may also initiate communication with devices in the network in order to assure complete distribution of the content item.

In a method of generating a field of a physical layer (PHY) preamble of a data unit, information bits to be included in the field are generated. Respective sets of tail bits are appended after respective sets of information bits corresponding to respective ones of a plurality of groups of subfields of the field, each group including one or more of the subfields of the field, to generate an encoder input bit stream. One or more padding bits are added to the encoder input stream to generate a padded encoder input bit stream, the one or more padding bits to ensure an integer number of puncturing blocks in an encoded output bit stream. The padded encoder input bit stream is encoded to generate the encoded output bit stream. The field is generated to include at least some bits from the encoded output bit stream.

In some aspects, a mobile device may receive configuration information, associated with configuring a state of the mobile device, via a unicast transmission, and may access a header-compressed broadcast transmission using the configuration information received via the unicast transmission. In some aspects, a network entity may transmit configuration information, to facilitate decompression of a header-compressed broadcast transmission, via a unicast transmission to a mobile device of a plurality of mobile devices, and may transmit the header-compressed broadcast transmission to the plurality of mobile devices in accordance with the configuration information.

A data communication system is provided. The data communication system includes at least one transmitter that is operable to communicate data packets via a data communication network and/or a data carrier to at least one receiver. The at least one transmitter is operable to include within at least one of the data packets a plurality of mutually different types of data having mutually different priorities. Optionally, the data communication system is operable to communicate to the at least one receiver information that is indicative of the one or more priorities of the plurality of mutually different types of data. Optionally, the data communication system is operable to communicate the information that is indicative of the mutually different priorities of the plurality of mutually different types of data within the at least one of the data packets.

An electronic device is provided. The electronic device includes: a first board that time-divides each of a plurality of parallel data and generates a plurality of packets corresponding to each time period based on levels of each of the plurality of parallel data included in each time period in order to convert the plurality of parallel data into serial data; and a second board that determines levels of each of the plurality of parallel data in each time period to convert the serial data into the plurality of parallel data when the serial data are received from the first board, in which the first board may convert the data into a first signal or a second signal based on the levels of the data included in each time period in order to generate the packets.

Embodiments of the present invention disclose a systematic code decoding method and an apparatus. The method includes: extracting a non-erased original packet from an acquired encoded packet that has passed through an erasure channel; and then by using the erased original packet as an unknown variable, obtaining an erased original packet by parsing according to a first equation. Because a quantity F of erased original packets is far less than a total quantity K of original packets, a dimension of the first equation that includes F unknown variables is far lower than a dimension of an equation indicating a correspondence between an encoded packet and an intermediate packet. An operation amount required for parsing the relatively low-dimensional first equation is far smaller, thereby greatly reducing an operation amount required for decoding.

An embodiment of the present invention relates to a method for transmitting or receiving a signal associated with a platoon communication by a first terminal in wireless communication system, the method comprising the steps of: receiving group resource pool information of a terminal group moving in a platoon formation; selecting a sub-pool, which is to be used by the first terminal, in a group resource pool on the basis of the group resource pool information; and transmitting or receiving a signal to or from one or more terminals within the terminal group through the selected sub-pool.
