Power and resource efficient uplink DMRS sequences for IFDMA
A method of transmitting demodulation reference signals (DMRS) over one, three or five resource blocks (RBs) with Interleaved Frequency Division Multiple Access (IFDMA) from a wireless device to a wireless network node in a wireless network wherein Single Carrier Frequency Division Multiple Access (SC-OFDMA) is deployed in uplink, is provided. At least one of: a set of base sequences including thirty quadrature phase shifting keying, QPSK, sequences of length 6, 18 or 30 is determined, a demodulation reference signal sequence is derived from the determined set of base sequences, the demodulation reference signal sequence is multiplexed, and the multiplexed demodulation reference signal sequence is transmitted, by the wireless device, to the wireless network node.
ANALOG FRACTIONAL-N PHASE-LOCKED LOOP
An analog fractional-N phase-locked loop includes an oscillator loop having a reference input, a feedback input, and a loop output, and a fractional feedback divider configured to divide signals on the loop output by a divisor. Output of the fractional feedback divider is fed back to the feedback input. A compensation circuit is coupled to, and configured to apply a time delay to, the reference input or the feedback input, to compensate for delay introduced by the fractional feedback divider. The compensation circuit may be a digital-to-time converter configured to convert a digital delay signal into the time delay. The digital-to-time converter may be coupled to the reference input to delay signals to match feedback delay introduced by the fractional feedback divider, or to the feedback input to subtract the time delay to cancel feedback delay introduced by the fractional feedback divider.
TRANSMISSION DEVICE AND TRANSMISSION METHOD
A transmission device includes: a weighting synthesizer that generates a first precoded signal and a second precoded signal from a first baseband signal and a second baseband signal, respectively; a phase changer that applies a phase change of i×Δλ to the second precoded signal; an inserter that inserts a pilot signal into the second precoded signal applied with the phase change; and a phase changer that applies a phase change to the second precoded signal applied with the phase change and inserted with the pilot signal. The weighting synthesizer performs, in the precoding process, a calculation that uses

Modulation index shift signaling
A transmitting device (20) overlays control information onto information bit stream intended for a receiving device (40) by varying or shifting the modulation index in continuous phase modulation (CPM) waveform. The receiving device (40) detects the modulation index used at the transmitting device (20) to modulate the data burst. The receiving device (40) then determines the control information based on the detected modulation index.

Provided are a reception device, a reception method and a transmission reception system capable of reducing the influence of distortion in a received signal and achieving high demodulation performance without performing a computation process having a great amount of calculations. The reception device receives a signal containing a known signal part and a data part, and includes a conversion unit that converts the signal received by a reception unit into a digital signal, a region determination unit that determines a nonuse region which is a periodic region containing distortion in the digital signal, on a basis of a first digital signal in the known signal part contained in the digital signal and a known signal held in advance, and a demodulation unit that performs demodulation on the digital signal by using a second digital signal in a region other than the nonuse region in the digital signal.
Zero-Power Modulation for Resource-Efficient 5G/6G Messaging
A resource-efficient modulation scheme includes both conventional and zero-amplitude states. The conventional states in 5G/6G are amplitude- or phase-modulated, or both, whereas the zero-amplitude states have zero or substantially zero amplitude. By including modulation states with zero amplitude in the modulation scheme, transmitters can transmit a message more compactly, and using less time or bandwidth, and with a substantial decrease in emitted energy. For example, in a phase-modulation scheme such as BPSK or QPSK, a zero state represents an additional modulation state with zero transmitted amplitude. In a modulation scheme with I and Q branches in quadrature, each branch is separately amplitude modulated, plus additional states with zero amplitude in one or both branches, for different effects. For example, 16QAM with nine additional zero-amplitude states totals 25 available modulation states, resulting in 36% reduction in message size and 44% reduction in transmitted energy. Low-complexity demodulation with fault detection are also disclosed.
