Method and apparatus for signaling enabling a state transition of a transmission mode. The apparatus measures at least one reference signal from a serving TRP to determine a link quality between the UE and the serving TRP. The apparatus transmits feedback including a state transition indication if the link quality between the UE and the serving TRP falls below a threshold. The feedback enables a state transition of a transmission mode.

Methods, systems and devices for lattice reduction in decision feedback equalizers for orthogonal time frequency space (OTFS) modulation are described. An exemplary wireless communication method, implementable by a wireless communication receiver apparatus, includes receiving a signal comprising information bits modulated using OTFS modulation scheme. Each delay-Doppler bin in the signal is modulated using a quadrature amplitude modulation (QAM) mapping. The method also includes estimating the information bits based on an inverse of a single error covariance matrix of the signal, with the single error covariance matrix being representative of an estimation error for all delay-Doppler bins in the signal.

In accordance with an embodiment, the application discloses a communication method that includes the operations: generating downlink control information DCI; and sending the DCI to a terminal device. The DCI includes indication information used to indicate a single codeword scheduled by using the DCI, or a correspondence between a single codeword scheduled by using the DCI and a first resource. Alternatively, the DCI includes a first number of a hybrid automatic repeat request HARQ process corresponding to a single codeword scheduled by using the DCI, where a quantity of values of the first number is greater than a quantity of values of a second number of an HARQ process used by either one codeword of DCI used to schedule two codewords. In embodiments of the application, a utilization rate of an HARQ buffer can be improved.
