A DL control channel candidate can be decoded. A determination can be made for which DL OFDM symbol the decoded DL control channel candidate is received in. A determination can be made for a DL resource assignment from the decoded DL control channel candidate. Data can be received based on the DL resource assignment. A determination can be made for a time-frequency resource for transmitting a HARQ-ACK at least based on the determined DL OFDM symbol. The HARQ-ACK can be transmitted in the determined time-frequency resource. The transmitted HARQ-ACK can correspond to the received data.

A system and method of DFT-S-OFDM modulation is provided that uses a set of frequency domain patterns. For a given transmitter, for a set of DFT-S-OFDM symbols, the frequency domain pattern changes according to a time domain hopping pattern. Advantageously, the time domain hopping patterns are defined to allow only a certain amount of overlap, for example for only one DFT-S-OFDM symbol, between any two time domain hopping patterns. This functions to reduce the effect of a collision, when two transmitters use the same frequency pattern, they will do so only for part of the overall transmission. Optionally, frequency domain spectral spreading is used in the transmitter. This can further reduce the PAPR. In the receiver, successive interference cancellation may be employed to reduce the effect of colliding transmissions.

Scheduling information for transmitting a first physical uplink channel within a slot can be transmitted, the slot including a plurality of symbols and including the first physical uplink channel and a second physical uplink channel, and the first physical uplink channel is shorter in duration than the second physical uplink channel. One or more allocated RBs can be determined for the first physical uplink channel based on an indicated sub-band group and one or more indicated RBGs within the indicated sub-band group, the sub-band group including one or more sub-bands, each sub-band comprising one or more RBGs, each RBG comprising one or more RBs, and an RB including one or more contiguous REs. The first physical uplink channel can be transmitted in the one or more allocated RBs in the slot. The scheduling information can indicate the sub-band group and the one or more resource block groups within the sub-band group.

Systems and methods for mixed space time and space frequency block coding are provided. In some embodiments, a method of operating a first node in a wireless communication network for providing time and frequency diversity includes precoding modulation symbols intended for a second node according to two antenna ports on which they are to be transmitted. In a first subset of Orthogonal Frequency-Division Multiplexing (OFDM) symbols, mapping the precoded modulation symbols to resource elements starting first with indices corresponds to frequency. In a different subset of OFDM symbols, mapping the precoded modulation symbols to resource elements in any two adjacent OFDM symbols starting first with indices corresponds to time. In this way, transmission efficiency may be increased by not having any resource elements unused. Additional flexibility for precoding may also be provided when there is no symbol pair mapped to resource elements across two resource blocks.

The UE or base station may select a first matrix associated with a first domain for the first portion of the payload and a second matrix associated with a second domain for the second portion of the payload based on a first maximum index interval for the first matrix being larger than a second maximum index interval for the second matrix. The UE may transmit or the base station may receive the first portion of the payload using one or more sequences associated with the first matrix and the second portion of the payload using one or more sequences associated with the second matrix.
