The method includes: receiving a transmission signal containing a first data block and transmitted by a transmission node, wherein the length of the first data block is N bits, the first data block is generated by performing an FEC encoding on a second data block which has a length of K bits, and the second data block is generated by performing a CRC encoding on a third data block which has a length of L bits, where N, K and L are all positive integers, and N≧K>L; obtaining a first estimation data block of the first data block according to the transmission signal, and obtaining a second estimation data block of the second data block according to the transmission signal; and checking the third data block according to a relationship between the first estimation data block and an FEC code space and/or a CRC check result of the second estimation data block. By means of the technical solution provided in the present disclosure, the problems that a transmission rate decreases due to the fact that a CRC check code is too long and a false detection rate cannot be ensured due to the fact that the CRC check code is too short are solved.

Systems and methods are provided for enabling reliable signaling in the presence of strong phase noise and frequency offset. To this end, a method is provided comprising receiving, at a receiver, a communication signal, including data, from a transmitter via a communication channel, and jointly tracking and jointly correcting phase noise errors and frequency errors in the communication signal with a joint detector using an iterative feedback correction process between an output decoder of the receiver and the joint detector.

A reference time generator including a first clock source including a reference synthesizer and cesium atomic clock configured to produce a cesium reference signal and a cesium QOT metric, a second clock source including a reference synthesizer and rubidium atomic clock configured to produce a rubidium reference signal and a rubidium QOT metric, and a circuit for selecting from the clock sources one reference signal based on the best QOT metric.

The described techniques relate to improved methods, systems, devices, or apparatuses that support enhanced efficiency in list Viterbi algorithm (LVA) decoding using iterative comparison trellis construction. Iterative comparison may involve comparison and selection from ordered accumulated path metrics associated with feeding transitions by selecting, for each successive rank of an ordered path metrics list for the current stage, the best unselected accumulated path metric of the feeding transitions. The iterative comparison may be performed sequentially for each stage before processing the next stage. Alternatively, the iterative comparison may be pipelined across stages, and different ranks of the ordered path metrics lists for different stages may be concurrently computed in a single trellis search cycle using multiple comparators. Iterative comparison may be used in an inner decoder to generate an ordered path metrics list for processing according to an error checking function using an outer decoder.

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.

Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. In some systems, a user equipment (UE) may monitor sets of decoding candidates over a search space in each monitoring occasion to detect downlink control transmissions. Such a monitoring process may be resource intensive. To reduce the processing power involved in monitoring the control channel, a UE may measure resources associated with the downlink control channel to obtain a quality metric. The UE may compare the quality metric to one or more thresholds and may perform a decoding process on a set of configured decoding candidates for the downlink control channel based on the comparing. In some cases, if the channel quality is relatively good, the UE may perform a list decoding process using a list size less than a maximum list size or may perform partial data tone processing to reduce the processing complexity for some of the decoding candidates.
