Embodiments of the present invention relate to the field of communications, and provide a method and a device for transmitting data by using a multidimensional constellation diagram, which can further improve bit error rate-signal to noise ratio performance by means of a multidimensional constellation diagram. The method is: First, bit data is mapped, by using an n-dimensional constellation diagram, into a column vector including n real numbers, then the n real numbers included in the column vector are modulated by using a resource element and sent, and after demodulating the n real numbers from a received signal, a receiving device finds, in the n-dimensional constellation diagram, a constellation point with coordinate values having a closest Euclidean distance to a point with coordinates being the n real numbers, and finally maps the coordinate values of the constellation point back into the bit data.

Time-reversal wireless communication includes: at a base station, receiving a probe signal from a terminal device; generating a signature waveform that is based on a time-reversed signal of a channel response signal derived from the probe signal; performing quadrature amplitude modulation (QAM) on a transmit signal to generate a quadrature amplitude modulated signal; and generating a transmission signal based on the quadrature amplitude modulated signal and the signature waveform.

A transmission method simultaneously transmitting a first modulated signal and a second modulated signal at a common frequency performs precoding on both signals using a fixed precoding matrix and regularly changes the phase of at least one of the signals, thereby improving received data signal quality for a reception device.

It is proposed a device to process data to be transmitted via a first radio module of a radio communications network, in which data to be transmitted is mapped on subcarriers and in the radio module subsequently up-converted to a radio frequency higher than the subcarrier frequencies, wherein the subcarriers are grouped into frequency subbands, and wherein at least one subband is scalable with at least one subband parameter, wherein a subband parameter is in particular a subcarrier spacing, and wherein in at least one subband at least two different parameters, in particular subcarrier spacings, can be used.

A method for performing HARQ includes: receiving information to determine downlink subframes used for a relay station to receive scheduling information from a BS; determining uplink subframes for performing a HARQ with the DL subframes, each of the UL subframes corresponding to each of the DL subframes; assigning sequentially each of a plurality of HARQ processes to each of the UL subframes one by one; and performing HARQ with the BS at at least one of the HARQ processes. An n-th subframe is configured for a corresponding UL subframe if an (n−4)-th subframe is configured for one of the DL subframes, n denoting an integer. The HARQ processes are equal in number to the UL subframes. The DL subframes are configured in at least one radio frame having 10 subframes indexed from 0 to 9. Subframes having indexes 0, 4, 5 and 9 are not configured as a DL subframe.

Embodiments are provided for syncing multiple electronic devices for collective audio playback. According to certain aspects, a master device connects (218) to a slave device via a wireless connection. The master device calculates (224) a network latency via a series of network latency pings with the slave device and sends (225) the network latency to the slave device. Further, the master devices sends (232) a portion of an audio file as well as a timing instruction including a system time to the slave device. The master device initiates (234) playback of the portion of the audio file and the slave devices initiates (236) playback of the portion of the audio file according to the timing instruction and a calculated system clock offset value.

Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communication are described. In aspects of the present disclosure, a user equipment (UE) may report metrics (e.g., received signal power, beam identifier) about synchronization signal (SS) beams using the same (e.g., or a similar) framework that is used for channel state information reference signal (CSI-RS) reporting. Because SSs are intended to be broadcast across a wide coverage area in a beamformed manner, the SSs represent a promising complement to existing beam management techniques. Accordingly, beam management may be achieved at least in part based on reporting one or more metrics of beamformed SSs through a channel feedback framework.

A receiver has an antenna to receive a pulse shaped transmit signal transmitted by a transmitter of a multi carrier (MC) pulse shaped transmission system. The pulse shaped transmit signal includes a predefined signal pattern. The predefined signal pattern is not subjected to pulse shaping. The receiver includes a filter to pulse shape filter the pulse shaped transmit signal to obtain data for the receiver. The predefined signal pattern is retrieved from the pulse shaped transmit signal prior to filtering the pulse shaped transmit signal.
