A wireless communication terminal including a wireless transceiver and a controller is provided. The wireless transceiver performs wireless transmission and reception to and from an Access Point (AP). The controller is coupled to the wireless transceiver, and configures the wireless communication terminal to operate as a Station (STA) to associate with the AP in compliance with an Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE) 802.11 standard. Also, the controller receives a beacon frame indicating to disable an UL MU operation from the AP via the wireless transceiver, and enables the STA to operate in a contention mode for UL transmission in response to receiving the beacon frame indicating to disable the UL MU operation.

Various aspects of the present disclosure generally relate to wireless communication. In some aspects, a user equipment (UE) may determine, for a device-to-device communication with another UE, a modulation and coding scheme (MCS) configuration, of a set of MCS configurations, based at least in part on at least one of a transmission mode, a packet characteristic, a mobility state of the UE, a capability of the UE, a transmission mode of the device-to-device communication, a received indication from the other UE, or a combination thereof. The UE may transmit, to the other UE, data using an MCS selected based at least in part on the MCS configuration. Numerous other aspects are provided.

Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. A base station communicates with a UE via transmission reception points (TRPs). A UE receives, from a base station, control signaling identifying a set of demodulation reference signal (DMRS) configurations. The UE receives, from the base station, control signaling activating a first DMRS configuration and a second DMRS configuration. The UE receives an indication for the UE to use a first transmission mode of a set of transmission modes to communicate with multiple TRPs of the base station. The UE selects at least one of the first DMRS configuration or the second DMRS configuration based on the indicated first transmission mode and a pre-defined logical association. The UE then receives DMRS signals from the TRPs of the base station, according to the selected at least one of the first DMRS configuration or the second DMRS configuration.

Method and apparatus for signaling enabling a state transition of a transmission mode. The apparatus measures at least one reference signal from a serving TRP to determine a link quality between the UE and the serving TRP. The apparatus transmits feedback including a state transition indication if the link quality between the UE and the serving TRP falls below a threshold. The feedback enables a state transition of a transmission mode.

Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. A user equipment (UE) receives control signaling from the base station indicating a set of transmission mode indicators or transmission mode options and a set of demodulation reference signal (DMRS) configurations for every transmission mode from a set of transmission modes. The base station transmits additional control signaling to dynamically indicate a transmission mode or a combination of transmission mode indicators and DMRS configuration parameters to signal the transmission mode and one or more associated DMRS configurations. The UE identifies a DMRS configuration and a transmission mode based on the additional control signaling. The UE receives one or more DMRSs from multiple transmission reception points (TRPs) based on the joint/disjoint DMRS and transmission mode signaling. The UE receives one or more data messages from the TRPs based on the transmission mode indication and based on the received DMRSs.

Proposed are a method and an apparatus for receiving a PPDU in a wireless LAN system. Specifically, a receiving STA receives a PPDU from a transmitting STA via broadband communication and decodes the PPDU. The PPDU is received on the basis of an OFDMA scheme. The PPDU includes a first signal field. The first signal field includes first information on a preamble puncturing pattern for each 80 MHz band in the broadband communication. The first information consists of a 4-bit bitmap for the 80 MHz band.

The present disclosure discloses a method and device for multi-antenna transmission in UE and base station. The user equipment receives a first radio signal at first, then receives a first signaling. The first radio signal is transmitted by K antenna port groups, and the first signaling is used to determine a first time resource pool; a second antenna virtualization vector is associated with the first antenna port group; the second antenna virtualization vector is an antenna virtualization vector available to the user equipment in the first time resource pool. The invention effectively reduces signaling overhead of wireless resource dynamic scheduling of a massive MIMO system.

There is disclosed a node for a wireless communication system. The node may comprise a receiver for receiving a data packet, a status report and an acknowledgement (ACK), a transmitter for transmitting the packet, the status reports and the ACK and a processor for selectively operating in a first mode and a second mode, for determining a mode switching criterion.

In a wireless local area network system, a station (STA) can transmit a first physical protocol data unit (PPDU) including a link adaptation control field. The link adaptation control field can include a bit indicating whether the link adaptation control field includes information related to low-latency traffic. The low-latency traffic can require a latency of less than or equal to a threshold value. The STA can be allocated resources for the low-latency traffic. The STA can transmit a second PPDU including the low-latency traffic through the resources.
