Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described that may enable a user equipment (UE) or base station (e.g., a next-generation NodeB (gNB)) to identify that a waveform to be generated for a scheduled transmission is formed by one or more reference signal symbols and one or more data symbols. The waveform may be contained between a beginning boundary and an ending boundary with a duration equal to a total length of the one or more reference signal symbols and the one or more data symbols. The UE, base station, or both may generate the waveform by inserting a guard internal in the one or more reference signal symbols and the one or more data symbols to enable a receiver to perform a fast Fourier transform (FFT) for each of the one or more reference signal symbols and the one or more data symbols.

A system may include a first radio comprising a first radio processor, a first radio modem, and a first radio transmitter configured to transmit non-hopping transmissions and hopping transmissions. The system may further include a second radio comprising a second radio processor, a second radio modem, and a second radio hopping receiver, wherein the second radio hopping receiver is a non-staring second radio receiver. The first radio may be configured to: receive a message and a destination for the message, the destination being the second radio; upon a determination that the destination has a non-staring receiver, store the message; determine a time interval start time for a cyclical hop pattern associated with the second radio; output the message from the memory to the first radio modem; output the message from the first radio modem to the first radio transmitter; and/or transmit the message to the second radio.

A radio station comprises means for allocating resources for communication with at least one other station, and including means for mapping data to be transmitted from at least the radio station to the at least one other station, and means for applying a cyclic shift to the data mapping, wherein this cyclic shift is adjusted depending on the number of data blocks to be mapped. A possible implementation concerns the mapping of the DVRB (Distributed Virtual Resource Block) in OFDM.

A system and method for improving for amplifying an electronic signal by using high efficiency amplifiers to amplify one analog or digital signal at a time. The system further improves performance by providing parallel communication pathways throughout the entire transport and distribution chain. By creating parallel processing paths, both optically and electrically, the interaction of multiple signals are limited thereby avoiding unwanted intermodulation and noise.

The disclosure provides a method and a device for multi-antenna transmission in a base station and a User Equipment (UE). The UE, in turn, receives a first higher-layer signaling, monitors a first-type physical layer signaling in a first radio resource pool, and receives second downlink information in a second radio resource pool. The first higher-layer signaling is used for determining first information and second information, and the first information is used for multi-antenna related receiving in the first radio resource pool. The first-type physical layer signaling is detected, and the first-type physical layer signaling is used for multi-antenna related receiving in the second radio resource pool, or, the first-type physical layer signaling is not detected, and the second information is used for multi-antenna related receiving in the second radio resource pool. The second radio resource pool is related to the first radio resource pool.

Embodiments of the present disclosure provide methods for transmitting an uplink signal and a downlink signal. A method for transmitting an uplink signal comprises detecting whether there is a beam failure; if there is a beam failure, determining at least one of whether there is a candidate downlink transmission beam(s) or candidate downlink transmission beam information; and transmitting a beam failure recovery request message to a base station, the beam failure recovery request message being used for informing the base station of at least one of whether there is a candidate downlink transmission beam(s) or candidate downlink transmission beam information. A method for transmitting a downlink signal comprises detecting a beam failure recovery request message, determining at least one of whether there is a candidate downlink transmission beam(s) or candidate downlink transmission beam information in the UE; and transmitting a feedback message corresponding to the beam failure recovery request message.

A broadband, dual-polarized, cavity-backed slot antenna (CBSA) array is presented for enabling full-duplex wireless communication. The antenna consists of a thin rectangular cavity appropriately loaded with metallic septa to excite multiple resonances of similar desired field distribution to achieve consistent radiation characteristics over a wide bandwidth. Four pairs of orthogonal radiating slots are cut out on one of the broad-walls of the cavity; all of which are fed by two orthogonal slots on the opposite broad-wall of the cavity. The cavity is fed by an end-launch coaxial-to-waveguide transition to excite one of the channels. The other channel is excited by a two-pronged microstrip line symmetrically crossing over the other cavity feeding slot. Due to the out-of-phase coupling from the two prongs of the microstrip line to the other port, this type of excitation is shown to provide an unpredicted level of isolation between the two channels over a wide bandwidth.

Flexible structured-pipelined CORDIC techniques efficiently perform various CORDIC operations and support different parameters for MIMO MEQ processing. The structured-pipelined CORDIC techniques simplify signal processing flow, unify input requirements and output delay, and simplify integration. Look-up table techniques provide quick generation of control signals, reduce design and verification efforts, and facilitate design automation. In addition, the structured-pipelined CORDIC techniques are conducive to hardware sharing and reuse. The structured-pipelined CORDIC techniques reduce integrated circuit area and power consumption.
