A message method intended for an OMAMRC telecommunication system with M sources s.sub.i iε{1, . . . , M], potentially L relays (r.sub.1 . . . , r.sub.L) and a destination. The transmission is of FDM type in a band divided into B mutually orthogonal sub-bands. The method includes: a simultaneous transmission of the M sources in a time interval with allocation of at least one sub-band per source and at least one cooperative retransmission for a time interval of at least one relay node taken from among the M sources and the L relays which is selected using a selection strategy with allocation of at least one sub-band per node selected.

Aspects relate to joint relaying of a transport block. For example, a first relay (e.g., a first user equipment) and a second relay (e.g., a second user equipment) may each relay at least a portion of the transport block during different resource elements of the same slot. In some examples, the second relay continues encoding the transport block at the point where the first relay completes its encoding. In some examples, the first relay and the second relay independently encode transport block data. In some examples, the first relay and the second relay are each allocated complete symbols within the slot.

The device includes: a receiver configured in use to receive a broadcast signal, the broadcast signal being in a first format and containing the emergency information; a transmitter configured in use to connect to the plurality of mobile terminals using a communication channel: and a processor configured in use to provide the emergency information received in the broadcast signal to the plurality of mobile terminals in a second format using the transmitter, wherein the second format is different to the first format.

Methods and systems for routing data are disclosed. In one aspect, service management can be implemented on one or more computing devices located between at least one router and one or more nodes. The one or more computing devices can be a default gateway for a plurality of user devices. In another aspect, the disclosed methods and systems can use a tag in routing a data block (e.g., service data) via a predefined route. For example, a device can transmit a request for a tag to a network node for routing a data block via a predefined route. Upon receiving the request, the network node can allocate a tag and create an interface. The interface can be associated with the tag and communications between the network node and the device for routing the data block.

A relay-based data transmission approach to improve the reliability and/or the energy efficiency of uplink NOMA. A relay node (RN) is employed to improve the performance of both weak and strong UEs. In some embodiments, superposition coding and NOMA-based transmission are applied at the RN and the UEs, respectively, to improve the achievable rates of the UEs.

Various aspects of the present disclosure generally relate to wireless communication. A source user equipment (UE) may transmit, to a relay UE, information identifying that the relay UE is one of a plurality of relay UEs selected for cooperative relaying of a communication from the source UE to a destination UE. A channel between the source UE and the relay UE may be one of a plurality of channels comprising a channel between the source UE and each relay UE of the plurality of relay UEs. The plurality of relay UEs may be selected based at least in part on a degree of correlation of the channel between the source UE and the relay UE with at least one other channel of the plurality of channels. The UE may transmit the communication to the plurality of relay UEs for cooperative relaying to the destination UE. Numerous other aspects are described.
