Aspects of the present disclosure provide for the pairing of an inter-band carrier with a time division duplex (TDD) carrier. If the paired band is a frequency division duplex (FDD) band, then base stations and mobile devices may transmit and receive additional thin control channels on FDD carriers to enable full duplex operations. If the paired band is a TDD band, then a conjugate or inverse carrier may be used such that full duplex, or a close approximation thereto, is achieved. With the introduction of a paired channel and fast control channels, rapid uplink/downlink switching may be achieved for TDD carriers efficiently and effectively. Other aspects, embodiments, and features are also claimed and described.

Disclosed is a method for transmitting and receiving a signal in a base station of a mobile communication system, the method including generating power control information for device to device (D2D) communication for a terminal and transmitting, to the terminal, a message including an indicator indicative of a power control mode of the terminal in accordance with the generated power control information. In accordance with a method for controlling transmit power of a terminal and a method for selecting a transmit resource in a mobile communication system, mutual interference between the D2D communication and cellular communication can be reduced, and communication efficiency improved.

Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communication are described that provide for uplink channel multiplexing and waveform selection. Uplink channels to be transmitted from one or more user equipment (UEs) to a base station are multiplexed together or separately into an uplink subframe. Each UE is capable of using different waveforms to transmit different channels. Reference signals are communicated according to an RS pattern, which is symmetric across uplink and downlink channels.

Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described for controlling multiplexing of a reference signal on an uplink shared channel (UL-SCH). In an implementation, a user equipment (UE) may time division multiplex (TDM) a demodulation reference signal (DMRS) with other signaling across symbol periods of one or more allocated resource blocks. The UE may map the DMRS to resource elements of one or more symbol periods within the allocated resource blocks. The UE may then map uplink control information (UCI) to one or more symbol periods different than the symbol periods of the DMRS mapping. In some cases, the DMRS, UCI, or both may be frequency interleaved with UL-SCH data for the allocated resource blocks. The UE may generate and transmit an uplink waveform for transmission within the allocated resources of the uplink shared channel.

A user equipment (UE) may multiplex peak suppression information message (PSIM) on a physical uplink shared channel (PUSCH) with data for efficient implementation of PSIMs for peak to average power ratio (PAPR) reduction. A UE may clip peaks from a signal to be transmitted and capture information of the clipped peaks into a PSIM. The UE may then multiplex the PSIM on the PUSCH such that a receiving device (for example, a base station) may receive the signal and reconstruct the signal (for example, PUSCH data) using the PSIM. According to some aspects, each PUSCH symbol may include a PSIM for a previous PUSCH symbol (for example, such that causality is preserved if multiplexing PSIM and data for each PUSCH symbol). Various aspects of the techniques described herein may further provide for PSIM positioning in frequency, PSIM modulation, PSIM channel coding, PSIM multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) configurations, among other examples.

Embodiments herein disclose e.g. a method performed by a wireless device (10) for handling communication for the wireless device in a second wireless communication network. The second wireless communication network coexists with a first wireless communication network on a same bandwidth in frequency, wherein the first wireless communication network applies a first shift in frequency in uplink transmissions. The wireless device receives from a radio network node (12,13), an indication indicating application of a second shift in frequency to uplink transmissions in case the second wireless communication network uses Frequency Division Duplex (FDD). The wireless device further applies the second shift in frequency to uplink transmissions, wherein the second shift defines a shift in frequency to a subcarrier relative to a subcarrier grid of the second wireless communication network or a shift in frequency to the subcarrier grid of the second wireless communication network.
