Certain aspects of the present disclosure generally relate to wireless communications, and more specifically to increased diversity for devices with limited communications resources. An example method generally includes transmitting data as a bundled transmission to a device with limited communications resources, the bundled transmission comprising multiple bursts wherein each burst spans a plurality of transmission time intervals (TTIs) and the same data is transmitted in each burst, and taking action to increase diversity (e.g., at least one of spatial diversity, time diversity, frequency diversity, etc.) for the bundled transmission.

There is provided a method and device for forwarding a digital signal arranged into portions that each contain a timestamp and an error detection code. Duplicates of the digital signal are received on a first optical path and a second, separate optical path. Corresponding timestamps are identified in the signals and used to synchronize corresponding portions of the signals. The error detection codes in the synchronized portions are used to allow one and only one of the corresponding portions to be selected for forwarding. The selected portions are then forwarded.

Message faults are likely to be common in the noisy, high-density wireless environments planned for 5G and 6G. Disclosed is a method for a receiver to recover the correct message from one or more corrupted message copies, by (a) measuring the modulation quality of each message element, and (b) determining which message elements of two corrupted copies are “inconsistent”, that is, the corresponding message elements are different. The modulation quality can be determined according to how close the message element's modulation is to the predetermined modulation levels of the modulation scheme. The receiver can assemble a merged message by selecting whichever message elements of the two copies have the best modulation quality, and determine whether the merged message is still corrupted. If so, the receiver can sequentially replace the inconsistent message elements with those of the other copy, singly or in a comprehensive nested search, testing each version until successful.

Control information (126) related to the reception of data (128) within a subframe (116) is transmitted over multiple subframes (113, 116) over multiple carrier (107, 108) from communication system infrastructure (102). A controller (134) in a mobile wireless communication device (104) reconstructs the control information (126) received over multiple subframes (113, 116) based on at least some control information (130) in a first physical control channel (118) in a first subframe (113) transmitted over a first carrier (107) and at least some other control information (132) in a second physical control channel (120) in a second subframe (116) transmitted over a second carrier (108).

An antenna system includes a module that is electrically coupled to a front-end electronic circuit layer configured to process one or more beams. The module includes a radiation layer including one or more radiating elements configured to at least one of transmit and receive the one or more beams and a feed layer including one or more feed elements, where the one or more feed elements are configured to excite the radiation layer, transmit the one or more beams, receive the one or more beams, or a combination thereof. The module further includes a distribution network layer including a wave distribution device, where the wave distribution device is configured to distribute the one or more beams from the front-end circuit layer to the feed layer.

Various aspects of the present disclosure generally relate to wireless communication. In some aspects, a user equipment (UE) may receive, from a base station, downlink control information (DCI) associated with transmission configuration information, where the transmission configuration information includes a plurality of indicators of respective reference signals. The UE may communicate, with the base station, based at least in part on the transmission configuration information. The DCI may include a field associated with a transmission configuration indicator (TCI) state that includes the plurality of indicators. As an alternative, the DCI may include at least a first field associated with a first TCI state that includes a first indicator of the plurality of indicators and a second field associated with a second TCI state that includes a second indicator of the plurality of indicators. Numerous other aspects are described.
