A method for data communication between communication participants including observing the surroundings of the transmitting participant, determining the positon and motion of the communication participants, and estimating the transmission conditions at a later point in time. The solution is based on classifying the data for data communication in different categories, the categories determining susceptibility of the data to transmission errors determining which data is transmitted under good transmission conditions only and which data is be transmitted under rough transmission conditions whereby the transmission station plans the transmission of data in different categories. The method further includes selecting for data transmission at a given time for which the transmission conditions have been estimated so the data to be transmitted is in a category fitting to the estimated transmission conditions based on the categories data, and transmitting the selected data.

Systems, methods, and computer-readable media are provided for predicting presence of interfering signals on given wireless channel(s) on which an access point is operating and proactively implementing an interference avoidance process. In one aspect of the present disclosure, a method includes determining, by an access point operating according to a first wireless technology and at a first time, that interference from signals of a second technology will occur, at a second time that is later than the first time, on a channel on which the access point is currently operating; selecting, by the access point, an interference avoidance process based on a plurality of factors; and implementing, by the access point, the interference avoidance process such that at the second time the access point is not operating on one or more sub-channels spanning the channel on which the access point is currently operating.

A base station transmits a transmission signal to a user equipment (UE) device and a machine type communication (MTC) device. The transmission signal includes a plurality of data subcarriers conveying UE data for the UE device where at least a portion of the data subcarriers convey at least some of the UE data on a UE data layer and convey MTC data for the MTC device on a MTC data layer. The transmission signal also includes a plurality of control subcarriers conveying geographic location dependent control information applying to reception of the data subcarriers by the UE device and by the MTC device. The control subcarriers also convey data layer control information specific to each device.

A base station can select orthogonal frequency-division multiplexing (OFDM) numerologies that define subcarrier spacing values based on attributes associated with one or more services that a user equipment (UE) is using. The base station can use the selected OFDM numerologies for transmission associated with the services. When the UE is using multiple services simultaneously, the base station can select the same or different OFDM numerologies for the multiple services.

The present disclosure relates to a technique for configuring transmission of a multicast channel carrying scheduling information and data belonging to one or more multicast services, the scheduling information indicating scheduling of the multicast services mapped to the multicast channel. A method embodiment comprises the steps of configuring (404) the transmission of the scheduling information on the multicast channel based on a scheduling information specific transmission requirement and configuring (404) the transmission of the data belonging to the one or more multicast services based on a service specific transmission requirement; and signalling (406) the scheduling information specific transmission requirement and the service specific transmission requirement.

Video data transmission in a communication system is provided. A method for operating a transmitting node includes generating a packet comprising data selected from compressed data and raw data based on a data size, and transmitting the packet.

Systems, apparatuses, and methods for implementing data recovery techniques for lossy wireless links are disclosed. A transmitter is configured to encode a video stream and wirelessly transmit the encoded video stream to a receiver, with the video stream representing a virtual reality (VR) rendered environment. The transmitter partitions the video stream into a plurality of substream components based on frequency. Motion vector parameters are calculated for the lowest frequency substream component of the video stream only, and the motion vector parameters are sent to the receiver using a low MCS level. When the receiver receives the motion vector parameters, but the receiver does not receive the lowest frequency component of a given chunk, the receiver uses the motion vector parameters to reconstruct the lowest frequency component of the given chunk by extrapolating from a corresponding chunk of the previous video frame.

A radio communication apparatus functioning as a transmitter in a radio communication system including the transmitter and a receiver includes a first data generation unit that generates first data which are to be transmitted in accordance with a first transmission scheme, a second data generation unit that generates second data which are to be transmitted in accordance with a second transmission scheme, a transmission parameter determination unit that determines a first transmission parameter for the first data and a second transmission parameter for the second data, and a transmission unit that, when the second data are generated during transmission of the first data, punctures a portion of a resource allocated for the transmission of the first data, transmits the first data using the first transmission parameter in an unpunctured portion, and transmits the second data using the second transmission parameter in the punctured portion.

Wireless communications systems and methods related to performing subband-based random access and/or subband-based scheduling request in a network are provided. A first wireless communication device receives a communication configuration indicating one or more subbands for transmitting a signal including at least one of a random access preamble sequence or a scheduling request. The first wireless communication device performs a clear channel assessment (CCA) on each subband of the one or more subbands. The first wireless communication device transmits the signal using at least one subband of the one or more subbands based on a result of the CCA.

Techniques for low latency streaming, for example in a broadcasting environment, are described herein. In some examples, one or more individual renditions may be encoded into multiple rendition versions associated with different respective latencies. Also, in some examples, one or more individual renditions may be encoded into multiple rendition versions having different respective amounts of forward error correction (FEC), for example by an edge node of a video streaming service. Also, in some examples, video may be broadcast using a protocol that does not require retransmission of lost packets, such as Web Real-Time Communication (WebRTC), which is commonly used for point-to-point transmissions. Also, in some examples, one or more servers may receive quality of service feedback information from each player to which video content is transmitted. The one or more servers may use this feedback information to select and switch between appropriate renditions and rendition versions for each player.
