The present invention relates to a method for transmitting a physical uplink control channel, the method comprising: determining a sequence hopping pattern on the basis of a frequency hopping index determined based on whether or not frequency hopping is configured in a slot; and transmitting a first PUCCH including a demodulation reference signal to which the determined sequence hopping pattern is applied, or a second PUCCH to which the determined sequence hopping pattern is applied.

Disclosed are a mobile terminal, a base station and a non-transitory computer-readable medium to securely receive a signal. When the mobile terminal sends information, randomly implementing an XNOR calculation is randomly implemented on corresponding digits of a low-frequency digital sequence which is to transmit the information and a first cyclic PN sequence or a second cyclic PN sequence so as to obtain spread sequences. The spread sequences are modulated and sent. The base station or the mobile terminal receives the spread sequence, and despreads the same using the first and second cyclic PN sequences. The present invention effectively prevents lawbreakers from decoding and monitoring a communication process.

Methods and systems for transmitting uplink control information and feedback are disclosed for carrier aggregation systems. A user equipment device may be configured to transmit uplink control information and other feedback for several downlink component carriers using one or more uplink component carriers. The user equipment device may be configured to transmit such data using a physical uplink control channel rather than a physical uplink shared channel. The user equipment device may be configured to determine the uplink control information and feedback data that is to be transmitted, the physical uplink control channel resources to be used to transmit the uplink control information and feedback data, and how the uplink control information and feedback data may be transmitted over the physical uplink control channel.

Systems and methods for same frequency/band repeaters for satellite and terrestrial links. One system includes a satellite antenna, a terrestrial antenna, a satellite transceiver coupled to the satellite antenna, a terrestrial transceiver coupled to the terrestrial antenna, and a controller communicatively coupled to transceivers. The controller is configured to receive a satellite downlink signal having a first frequency. The controller is configured to receive a plurality of terrestrial return link signals from a plurality of user terminals, the plurality of uplink signals having a second frequency. The controller is configured to generate a repeated, terrestrial downlink signal based on the satellite downlink signal. The controller is configured to generate a repeated satellite uplink signal that is a linearly amplified version of the combined terrestrial uplink signals. The controller is configured to transmit the repeated downlink signal at the first frequency. The controller is configured to transmit the combined uplink signal at the second frequency.

Disclosed are methods and apparatus used in wireless communications. The methods and apparatus establish a codebook for use in sparse code multiple access (SCMA) encoded communications, in particular. The SCMA codebook is configured to set the codebook for at least one layer (i.e., a user) to include a constellation of points having a first grouping of constellation points located at first radial distance from an origin in a complex plane and a second grouping of constellation points located at a second radial distance from the origin. This codebook arrangement provides increased gains at receivers by optimizing the constellation shape to improve the distance between constellation points (i.e., SCMA codebook performance), and in particular more robust performance when encountering amplitude and phase misalignment in uplink (UL) multiple access.

The present specification relates to a method for transmitting uplink control channels in a wireless communication system, the method being performed by a terminal and comprising the steps of: receiving, from a base station, information on a cyclic shift (CS) index configuration, which indicates the configuration of an index group for a CS related to uplink control channel transmission; transmitting a first physical uplink control channel by using a first CS index included in the CS index group and a base sequence having a particular length; and transmitting a second physical uplink control channel by using a second CS index included in the CS index group and the base sequence having the particular length, wherein the first CS index is used for symbols that are not overlapped between transmission time intervals (TTI) for transmitting the physical uplink control channel, and the second CS index is used for symbols that are overlapped between the TTI.

The present application provides a frequency domain spreading and de-spreading method and apparatus. In embodiments of the present application, user equipment acquires indication information of an orthogonal sequence used by a transmission physical uplink control channel (PUCCH); the user equipment spreads, according to an orthogonal sequence corresponding to the indication information of the orthogonal sequence, a frequency domain for uplink control information borne by the PUCCH; and the user equipment transmits, over a frequency domain resource corresponding to the PUCCH, the uplink control information of which the frequency domain is spread. The present application can spread a frequency domain for uplink control information borne by a PUCCH.

Methods, systems, and apparatuses for wireless communication are described. In some wireless systems (e.g., new radio (NR) systems), a system may employ fixed or variable length uplink burst regions (e.g., in an uplink-centric slot). The base station may semi-statically or dynamically configure a user equipment (UE) or group of UEs for uplink control channel transmissions within an uplink burst region. In semi-static configuration, the UE may determine the uplink control channel transmission based on values transmitted or indicated via higher-layer signaling or based on default values. In dynamic configuration, the UE may receive an indication of actual resources used by the base station in a physical layer message. The UE may transmit using an uplink control channel transmission based on the indication. In some cases, the base station may allocate code division multiplexing (CDM) groups based on which UEs are semi-statically configured and which are dynamically configured.
