Radio frequency sensing control for an ultra-wideband system
This disclosure provides methods, components, devices and systems for radio frequency sensing control for an ultra-wideband system. Some aspects more specifically relate to setting up one or more sensing instances (sensing rounds) for one or more respective sensing operations.

For each of the sensing instances, the first wireless device may transmit a sensing control information element that includes at least a common sensing control configuration and a channel impulse response report configuration. The first wireless device may participate in the sensing operations with at least a second wireless device (for example one or more responders or controlees) during the respective sensing instances.

Transmitter and receiver for, and method of, transmitting and receiving symbols over time varying channels with doppler spread
A communication frame for an OTFS transmission system includes first-type and second-type blocks. The first-type block includes pilot signals, guard signals, and data signals, the second-type block exclusively includes data signals. The pilot symbols, guard signals, and data symbols of the first-type block, and the data symbols of the second-type block, are arranged along the points of a grid in the delay-Doppler domain. In the communication frame, a first-type block is followed by a second-type block, and a second-type block is followed by a first-type block. In the first-type block at least one pilot symbol is surrounded on at least three sides by one or more guard symbols. Points of the grid of the first-type blocks in the delay-Doppler domain that are not occupied by pilot symbols or guard symbols are used for data symbols. The communication frame permits determining oscillator frequency offset and channel coefficients in a receiver.
Windowing in Channel Estimation
