A method and a system for concurrently transmitting from an antenna a first sequence of data from a first access node and a second sequence of data from a second access node. An example method includes orthogonally encoding the first and second sequences, including encoding the first sequence with a first binary code to produce a first encoded sequence and encoding the second sequence with a second binary code to produce a second encoded sequence, combining the first encoded sequence and the second encoded sequence to produce a combined encoded sequence, and transmitting the combined encoded sequence from the antenna, with transmitting the combined encoded sequence from the antenna including engaging in a first transmission of the combined encoded sequence from the antenna and engaging in a second transmission of the combined encoded sequence from the same antenna with a phase delay compared with the first transmission.

Various novel concepts and schemes pertaining to non-orthogonal multiple access for wireless communications are described. A group orthogonal coded access (GOCA) scheme is introduced to reduce multi-user interference (MUI) and improve performance. A repetition division multiple access (RDMA) scheme is introduced to differentiate user equipment (UEs) by different repetition patterns. A low-density spreading (LDS) scheme is introduced to reduce MUI and improve performance.

A transmitting apparatus is disclosed. The transmitting apparatus includes an encoder to perform channel encoding with respect to bits and generate a codeword, an interleaver to interleave the codeword, and a modulator to map the interleaved codeword onto a non-uniform constellation according to a modulation scheme, and the constellation may include constellation points defined based on various tables according to the modulation scheme.

Aspects relate to technologies and techniques for sequence-based, non-coherent wireless channel transmission of a payload on a physical uplink channel. A transmitter converts information bits of a payload to be transmitted to a decimal integer value that is, in turn, used to generate a modified maximum sequence (m-sequence) based on one or more predetermined parameters such as an m-sequence generating polynomial, a starting location in the sequence, and an initialization. The generated modified m-sequences are modulated using modulation schemes such as π/2 binary phase-shift keying and quadrature phase-shift keying for transmission on the physical uplink channel.

Methods, systems, and devices related to applying a spreading code to reference signals are described. In one exemplary aspect, a method for wireless communication includes receiving a message indicating a set of control options available to the mobile device for data transmissions. The method includes selecting a spreading code sequence from a number of spreading code sequences, wherein the spreading code sequence corresponds to a control option in the set of control options, wherein the number of spreading code sequences is greater than a length of each of the spreading code sequence, and wherein the spreading code sequences are generated using a method when the length of each of the spreading code sequences is greater than or equal to a value. The method also includes generating a plurality of reference signal symbols using the spreading code sequence, and transmitting the plurality of reference signal symbols.

A receiver decoding apparatus includes a first receiver decoder, a demultiplexer, a first receiver encoder and a second receiver decoder. The first receiver decoder decodes a plurality of N-bit code words received from a transmitter encoding apparatus to generate a plurality of I-bit code words, wherein N and I are both positive integers and N is not equal to I. The demultiplexer alternately deinterleaves and assigns the plurality of I-bit code words to a plurality of output terminals of the demultiplexer. The first receiver encoder encodes a plurality of outputs of the output terminals of the demultiplexer to a fifth digital signal comprising a plurality of J-bit code words and a sixth digital signal comprising a plurality of J-bit code words, wherein J is a positive integer and not equal to I. The second receiver decoder decodes the fifth digital signal and the sixth digital signal.

A sequence allocating method and apparatus wherein in a system where a plurality of different Zadoff-Chu sequences or GCL sequences are allocated to a single cell, the arithmetic amount and circuit scale of a correlating circuit at a receiving end can be reduced. In ST201, a counter (a) and a number (p) of current sequence allocations are initialized, and in ST202, it is determined whether the number (p) of current sequence allocations is coincident with a number (K) of allocations to one cell. In ST203, it is determined whether the number (K) of allocations to the one cell is odd or even. If K is even, in ST204-ST206, sequence numbers (r=a and r=N−a), which are not currently allocated, are combined and then allocated. If K is odd, in ST207-ST212, for sequences that cannot be paired, one of sequence numbers (r=a and r=N−a), which are not currently allocated, is allocated.
