The shared AP may decode the data frame based on the address of the sharing AP included in the RA field of the data frame.

There is disclosed a method of operating a wireless device in a wireless communication network, the method comprising transmitting feedback signaling including feedback information, the feedback information being encoded with an error coding scheme, wherein an error coding size of the error coding scheme is dependent on a type of the feedback information. The disclosure also pertains to related devices and methods.

Embodiments provide a transfer method for wirelessly transferring data in a communication system (e.g. a sensor network or telemetry system). The data includes core data and extension data, wherein the core data is encoded and distributed in an interleaved manner to a plurality of core sub-data packets, wherein the extension data is encoded and distributed in an interleaved manner to a plurality of extension sub-data packets, wherein at least a part of the core data contained in the core sub-data packets is needed for receiving the extension data or extension data packets.

There is provided a decoding circuit including; a first decoding unit that decodes a first signal from a multiplexed signal in which the first signal and a second signal are multiplexed in an LDM (Layered Division Multiplexing) system; and a second decoding unit that decodes the second signal from the multiplexed signal using the decoding result of the decoded first signal, wherein the second signal is selectively decoded based on noise information related to a reception state of the multiplexed signal.

Methods and apparatuses are related to multi-user parallel channel access (MU-PCA). For example, a wireless transmit/receive unit (WTRU) is provided that is one of the plurality of WTRUs operable to simultaneously communicate via a plurality of channels managed by an access point (AP). The WTRU includes a receiver configured to receive, from the AP, over at least one channel of the plurality of channels, a group poll (G-Poll) message that includes a resource allocation that indicates at least one allocated channel of the plurality of channels for the WTRU; and a transmitter configured to transmit an uplink request message, to the AP in response to the G-Poll message, over the at least one allocated channel of the plurality of channels, the uplink request message corresponding to uplink data the WTRU has for transmission to the AP.

In a data processing method, a transmit end may send, to a receive end, coding information of N layers of first bit sequences and second information that does not include some or all bits in the N layers of first bit sequences, and the receive end may process the coding information and the second information, to obtain the N layers of first bit sequences. Because the transmit end sends the coding information to the receive end, information sent by the transmit end may not include some or all bits in the N layers of first bit sequences.

A transmission device includes a controller configured to apply transmission schemes to respective divisions of a signal to be transmitted to a fronthaul and a transmitter configured to transmit the signal to the fronthaul. The respective divisions include a first division and a second division, and the controller is configured to apply a transmission scheme having higher error tolerance to the first division and a transmission scheme having lower error tolerance to the second division.

A phase tracking reference signal (PTRS) may be enhanced to carry data encoded with a relative low modulation and coding scheme (MCS). A receive device may receiving a data channel, the data channel including a transport block encoded using a first MCS. The receiving device may receiving a PTRS interleaved with the data channel. The PTRS is encoded with the second MCS that is lower than the first MCS. The receiving device may decode the PTRS to determine PTRS data. The receiving device may track phase noise using the PTRS data as a transmitted sequence of the PTRS. The receiving device may decode the transport block for the data channel based on the first MCS and the tracked phase noise.
