User Equipment (UE) determines a location of a resource of at least one control channel for transmission repetition, and the at least one control channel is located in a control region. The UE detects, according to the location of the resource, control signaling transmitted by a base station using the at least one control channel.

Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. Generally, a user equipment (UE) may support both unicast and multicast downlink signaling, such as on a single component carrier (CC). A UE may receive a unicast message over a first CC during a transmission time interval (TTI) using a first set of processing resources. The UE may simultaneously receive a multicast message over the first CC during the same TTI using a second set of processing resources. The first and second sets of processing resources may be associated with first and second hybrid automatic repeat request (HARQ) soft buffers, first and second CCs, or first and second transmit/receive points (TRPs).

A communication method and a system for converging a 5th-generation (5G) communication system for supporting higher data rates beyond a 4th-generation (4G) system with a technology for Internet of things (IoT) are provided. The disclosure may be applied to intelligent services based on the 5G communication technology and the IoT-related technology, such as a smart home, a smart building, a smart city, a smart car, a connected car, health care, digital education, a smart retail, security and safety services. The disclosure provides a method and an apparatus for efficient transmission and reception of control information in a sidelink communication.

Provided are systems and methods for adaptive payload extraction and retransmission in wireless data communications. An example method commences with transmitting a network packet to a receiver via a communication channel. The method further includes receiving a further network packet including a further payload. The method continues with determining, based on the payload and the further payload, an error vector. The method includes generating, based on the error vector, a plurality of indices. An index of the plurality of indices corresponds to a portion of a plurality of non-overlapping portions of the payload. The method further continues with selecting, based on the error vector, at least one index from the plurality of indices. The method includes sending, to the receiver via the communication channel, a further network packet. The further network packet includes the selected index and a portion of the payload corresponding to the selected index.

Improved techniques for recovering from an error condition without requiring a re-transmittal of data across a high-speed data link and for improved power usage are disclosed herein. A data stream is initiated. This stream includes different types of packets. Error correcting code (ECC) is selectively imposed on a control data type packet. A transmitter node and a receiver node are connected via a hard link that has multiple virtual channels. Each virtual channel is associated with a corresponding power-consuming node. When the receiver node receives the control data type packet, error correction is performed if needed without re-transmittal. When a final data type packet is transmitted for each virtual channel, the transmitter node transmits an end condition type packet. A corresponding power-consuming node that corresponds to the respective virtual channel transitions from an active state to a low power state.

A method for detecting a PDCCH and a terminal are provided. The method includes: detecting a first PDCCH, the first PDCCH carries DCI format 1-1 or DCI format 0-1; determining an active search space group according to a detection result of the first PDCCH; and performing PDCCH detection on the active search space group.

Various aspects of the present disclosure generally relate to wireless communication. In some aspects, a user equipment (UE) may receive configuration information identifying a plurality of physical downlink control channel (PDCCH) candidates that are to be monitored for downlink control information (DCI). The plurality of PDCCH candidates may include a PDCCH candidate having a first aggregation level and a set of linked PDCCH candidates, for repetitions of DCI, having a second aggregation level. The PDCCH candidate may overlap with one PDCCH candidate of the set of linked PDCCH candidates. The UE may communicate according to one or more rules for the PDCCH candidate overlapping with the one PDCCH candidate of the set of linked PDCCH candidates. Numerous other aspects are described.

The present invention relates to a method for transmitting a packet in a communication system, the method comprising: generating drop information indicating at least one source packet to be dropped among source packets to be transmitted and whether or not to drop each of the other source packets except the at least one source packet; performing forward error correction (FEC) encoding on the drop information and the other source packets except the at least one source packet; generating a repair packet comprising repair data for restoring the drop information and a repair symbol for restoring the other source packets except the at least one source packet; and transmitting the other source packets except the at least one source packet and the repair packet.

Disclosed are a broadcast signal transmitting apparatus, a broadcast signal receiving apparatus, and a broadcast signal transceiving method in the broadcast signal transmitting and receiving apparatuses. The broadcast signal transmitting method comprises the steps of: compressing headers of data packets which are included in an Internet protocol (IP) stream identified by access information, wherein the compressed data packets include a first packet containing both static information and dynamic information in the header thereof, and a second packet containing dynamic information in the header thereof; splitting the static information from the header of the first packet and diverting the remaining part thereof into the second packet; outputting an IP stream, which includes the second packet, via a data physical layer pipe (PLP); outputting, via a common PLP, a common stream, which includes the static information of the header of the first packet split in the previous step, compression information and IP-PLP mapping information for linking the IP stream and the data PLP; generating a signal frame on the basis of the data from the data PLP and the data of the common PLP; and transmitting a broadcast signal which includes the signal frame.

A downlink control information (DCI) sending method and an apparatus are provided. A base station determines a first channel resource, where the first channel resource is located in the i.sup.th time unit of a subframe in a time domain, the subframe includes N.sub.T time units, N.sub.T is an integer greater than or equal to 2, and i is a positive integer less than or equal to N.sub.T; and the base station sends DCI to a terminal device on the first channel resource. In this solution, the first channel resource that carries the DCI is located in the i.sup.th time unit of the subframe in the time domain, where i is a positive integer less than or equal to N.sub.T. That is, there is a first channel resource in each time unit of the subframe.
