Wireless communication methods and devices are provided. The wireless communication method includes transmitting a reference signal and a data signal in a Physical Resource Block (PRB) with a coverage enhancement level, wherein the number of resource elements transmitting the reference signal in the PRB is determined by the coverage enhancement level, the channel type and/or the coding rate of the data signal.

A base station may multiplex a peak suppression information message (PSIM) on a physical downlink shared channel (PDSCH) with data for efficient implementation of PSIMs for peak to average power ratio (PAPR) reduction. A base station may clip peaks from a signal to be transmitted and capture information of the clipped peaks into a PSIM. The base station may then multiplex the PSIM on the PDSCH such that a receiving device (for example, a user equipment (UE)) may receive the signal and reconstruct the signal (for example, PDSCH data) using the PSIM. According to some aspects, each PDSCH symbol may include a PSIM for a previous PDSCH symbol, or the PSIM may be for the current symbol. Various aspects of the techniques described herein may further provide for PSIM positioning in frequency, PSIM modulation, PSIM channel coding, PSIM multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) configurations, among other examples.

In one implementation, a wireless communication terminal includes a sense antenna module configured to sample an interference signal. The wireless communication terminal also includes a primary antenna module configured to receive a desired signal. The sense antenna module has a first polarization type, and the primary antenna module has a second polarization type, substantially orthogonal to the first polarization type of the sense antenna module. In addition, the wireless communication terminal includes at least one signal combiner configured to receive output from the sense antenna module and output from the primary antenna module. The at least one signal combiner is configured to mitigate interference with the desired signal by shifting the phase of the output from the sense antenna module by substantially 180 degrees and combining the phase-shifted output from the sense antenna module with the output of the primary antenna module to produce an interference mitigated signal.

Wireless communications systems and methods related to sidelink communications in a shared radio frequency band are provided. A first user equipment (UE) receives, from a base station (BS), a configuration for frequency-interlaced resources in a shared radio frequency band for sidelink communication between the first UE and a second UE. The first UE communicates, with the second UE, the sidelink communication using the frequency-interlaced resources.

A multichannel data packer includes a plurality of two-input multiplexers and a controller. The plurality of two-input multiplexers is arranged in 2.sup.N rows and N columns in which N is an integer greater than 1. Each input of a multiplexer in a first column receives a respective bit stream of 2.sup.N channels of bit streams. Each respective bit stream includes a bit-stream length based on data in the bit stream. The multiplexers in a last column output 2.sup.N channels of packed bit streams each having a same bit-stream length. The controller controls the plurality of multiplexers so that the multiplexers in the last column output the 2.sup.N channels of bit streams that each has the same bit-stream length.

An apparatus of a New Radio (NR) User Equipment (UE), a method and system. The apparatus includes one or more processors to encode a two part CSI including: encode a two part CSI including: encoding information bits of a first channel state information (CSI) type and information bits of a second CSI part to generate, respectively, encoded bits of a first CSI part and encoded bits of a second CSI part, a payload size of the second CSI part being based on encoded bits of the first CSI part and further being encoded separately from information bits of the first CSI part; and mapping the encoded bits of the first CSI part onto a first physical resource and the encoded bits of the second CSI part onto a second physical resource different from the first physical resource; and configure the two part CSI in a long or short PUCCH for transmission to a NR evolved Node B (gNodeB).

A base station includes: a controller that performs control to transmit a plurality of signals that is common to each terminal to a terminal located in a coverage area of its own base station by transmitting the plurality of signals at the same timing while frequency multiplexing the plurality of signals on a frequency domain in an area where the signals can be transmitted simultaneously using a beam within the coverage area, and transmitting the plurality of signals a plurality of times while changing the area; and an antenna that transmits the plurality of signals area by area while changing a direction of the beam under the control of the controller.

Embodiments of this application disclose a method and an apparatus for transmitting a DMRS, and relate to the field of communications technologies. The method and the apparatus are applicable to an NR system. The method for transmitting a DMRS may include: determining a time-frequency resource used to carry a DMRS; and then sending the DMRS by using the time-frequency resource.

A terminal apparatus capable of efficiently performing the uplink and/or downlink communication is provided. The terminal apparatus receives higher layer signaling used for configuration of multiple scheduling request configurations, and transmits HARQ-ACK bits and scheduling request bits by using a HARQ-ACK PUCCH resource. Each of the multiple scheduling request configurations corresponds to one or more logical channels. Each of the multiple scheduling request configurations includes an SR PUCCH resource. The scheduling request bits are added to a sequence of the HARQ-ACK bits. In a case that the HARQ-ACK PUCCH resource and SR PUCCH resource overlap with each other in a time domain, a size of the scheduling request bits is given based on a number of scheduling request configurations with the overlapping SR PUCCH resource.

An efficient method for providing both dedicated and simulcast services over a common wireless infrastructure is described. The services can be available to a single terminal as well as to a multiplicity of terminals simultaneously. The method uses time division multiplexing and orthogonal frequency division multiple access for simulcasting information and transmitting dedicated message information from a plurality of base stations forming a cellular pattern over the same wireless frequency channel. The method comprises the steps of constructing frames for transmission by the plurality of base stations comprising control information, simulcast information and dedicated message information within predetermined time slots of the frames and allocating the simulcast information and the dedicated message information to time slots of the same frame predetermined by the control information of the frame. The underlying modulation technology used is OFDM and thereby the channel delay-dispersion is minimized.
