A method and apparatus for transmitting a PPDU on the basis of S-TDMA in a wireless LAN system are presented. In particular, an AP generates a PPDU, and transmits the PPDU to a first STA and a second STA. When a PPDU further comprises a third signal field, the third signal field comprises information about S-TDMA. The information about S-TDMA comprises STDMA indication information indicating that S-TDMA can be carried out, first symbol offset information about a first data field, and second symbol offset information about a second data field. The S-TDMA indication information comprises information indicating that the first and second data fields are assigned to a first RU. The first data field is transmitted from the first RU during a first symbol determined on the basis of the first symbol offset information. The second data field is transmitted from the first RU during a second symbol determined on the basis of the second symbol offset information.

The present specification provides a method for simultaneously transmitting/receiving an uplink signal and a downlink signal in a wireless communication system for supporting SDD. More particularly, a method performed by a terminal includes the steps of: measuring a beam on the basis of at least one wireless unit including resources and a plurality of antennas related to beam management; reporting a result of the beam measurement to a base station; and simultaneously transmitting/receiving an uplink signal and a downlink signal to/from the base station on the basis of first beam pair information, when the simultaneous transmission/reception of the uplink signal and the downlink signal on the same symbol to/from the base station is configured.

An embodiment of the present invention is a device-to-device (D2D) signal receiving method in which a terminal receives a D2D signal in a wireless communication system. The method includes the steps of: receiving a first medium access control protocol data unit (MAC PDU); receiving a second MAC PDU; and determining whether to combine the first MAC PDU and the second MAC PDU in order to decode; wherein whether to combine the first MAC PDU and the second MAC PDU in order to decode is determined from the number of transmissions of MAC PDUs and an NDI that have been instructed to the terminal.

A method for transmitting a control signal, performed by a wireless device. The method according to one embodiment includes allocating resource elements (REs) for a control channel; and transmitting the control signal through the Res. Each RE in the REs for the control channel is associated with one out of two antenna ports. The two antenna ports are included in a plurality of antenna ports used for transmitting demodulation reference signals (DM RS).

A system, computer-readable storage medium and method of reflection seismic survey in a wireless seismic network within a survey area is described. The method includes detecting, in each of a plurality of wireless seismic sensor nodes, seismic reflection signals from a seismic energy source; recording, in each of a plurality of wireless geophones, detected seismic signals; transmitting, by the geophones, the recorded seismic signals as digital data, using a combination of Orthogonal Frequency-Division Multiple Access (OFDMA) and Time Division Multiple Access (TDMA), to a central data receiving device; changing the seismic energy source location for seismic reflection; and repeating the detecting, recording and transmitting a number of times for each change in seismic energy source.

Methods and apparatuses for wireless communication devices to discover each other and share information are described. Wireless communication devices transmit and receive messages to identify compatible wireless communication devices. The messages include indicators for a communication service and one or more user identification values. A scanning wireless communication device identifies a message from a broadcasting wireless communication device that satisfies a set of matching filter criteria and extracts user identification values from the message. The scanning wireless communication device compares the extracted user identification values to a local set of user identification values. When an extracted user identification value from the message matches a user identification value in the local set of user identification values, the scanning wireless communication device establishes a connection to the broadcasting wireless communication device according to the communication service indicated in the message.
