Embodiments of the application provide a method for rate matching in a wireless communication network. A device obtains K information bits and a target code length M of a polar code, determines, according to a minimum value of a set of values, a mother code length N.sub.1, polar encodes the K information bits to obtain an encoded sequence of N.sub.1 bits, obtains a target sequence of M bits from the N.sub.1 bit encoded sequence, and outputs the M-bit target sequence. When the mother code length N.sub.1 is larger than the target code length M, (N.sub.1−M) bits of the encoded sequence are punctured or shortened from the N.sub.1 bit encoded sequence.

Certain aspects of the present disclosure generally relate to wireless communications and, more particularly, to methods and apparatus for rate-matching a stream of bits encoded using polar codes. An exemplary method generally includes determining a target coding rate, R.sub.T, for transmitting a group of K information bits, based on a first coding rate, R.sub.1, corresponding to a first target block error rate (BLER) for a first transmission of a first redundancy version (RV) of the packet and a second coding rate, R.sub.2, corresponding to a second target BLER for a last transmission of a last RV of the packet; determining a circular buffer size, N, of a circular buffer for use in transmitting the first RV and the last RV of the packet; generating encoded information bits from the K information bits using a polar code having a mother code size of N; writing the encoded information bits to the circular buffer; determining a maximum number of retransmissions, based on a latency requirement for the packet; generating different RVs from the encoded information bits in the circular buffer, each RV based on a corresponding target BLER; and transmitting the first RV via a wireless medium.

Proposed are a method and a device for receiving a PPDU in a wireless LAN system. Specifically, a reception STA receives a PPDU through a broadband from a transmission STA, and decodes the PPDU. The broadband is a 320 MHz band or a (160+160) MHz band. The PPDU includes an STF signal. The STF signal is generated on the basis of a first STF sequence for the broadband. The first STF sequence is obtained by applying a phase rotation to a sequence in which a second STF sequence for a 80 MHz band is repeated. The first STF sequence is a sequence in which a preconfigured M sequence is repeated, and is defined by a formula {M−1 −M 0 −M −1 M 0 M −1 −M 0 −M −1 M 0 −M 1 M 0 M 1 −M 0 −M 1 M 0 M 1 −M}*(1+j)/sqrt(2). A first preamble puncturing pattern includes all patterns of a band obtained by puncturing a 20 MHz band in the 320 MHz band or the (160+160) MHz band.

Methods and systems for detecting an enhanced massive mobile broadband (eMBB) physical downlink control channel (PDCCH) in the presence of for ultra-reliable low latency communication (URLLC) users are disclosed. A eMBB wireless transmit/receive unit (WTRU) may receive a eMBB control resource set (CORESET) configuration for a CORESET including a PDCCH preemption indicator. If PDCCH preemption is enabled based on the PDCCH preemption indicator, the eMBB WTRU may identify and remove preempted resource element groups (REGs) in the eMBB CORESET by comparing channel estimates for each REG bundle in the eMBB CORESET.

Disclosed in the embodiments of the present invention are an information transmission method, device and system. The method comprises: generating indication information for a target terminal, the indication information is used for indicating the present state of a physical downlink control channel PDCCH of a non target terminal in a physical downlink shared channel (PDSCH) sent to the target terminal and/or the occupation state of resources of the non-target terminal; and sending the indication information to the target terminal. Thus, by means of the indication information, the terminal can learn whether a PDCCH of another terminal is present in the PDSCH sent to the terminal and/or whether there is resource occupation by the other terminal. On the basis of the content learned from the indication information, PDSCH rate matching may be implemented in order to avoid the situation of being unable to correctly analyze PDSCH data packets in a short time period due to matching errors.
