Various example embodiments provide a system for transmission of low power signals based on using transmission time as one coding parameter. A code table may be used at a transmitter and receiver to map different data to different transmission times and/or other parameters. Advantageously, large amount of information may be transmitted with short and power efficient signals, for example to report status of a sensor every now and then. A receiver may use the same code table to decode the signals. Apparatuses, methods, and computer programs are disclosed.

A repeater device for New Radio (NR) communication, includes a baseband processor that establishes a communication link with a base station and decodes control information that is received from the base station through a control channel. The baseband processor further aligns a timing reference of the repeater device with that of an NR cell frame for an uplink or a downlink time division duplex (TDD) switching, based on the decoded control information. The baseband processor further selects and forms one or more donor beams of RF signals at a donor side of the repeater device and one or more service beams of RF signals at a service side of the repeater device, based on the decoded control information and the aligned timing reference with that of the NR cell frame for the uplink or the downlink TDD switching for communication in an NR frequency band.

Various aspects of the present disclosure generally relate to wireless communication. In some aspects, a first wireless communication device may transmit, in a time-frequency resource occasion to a second wireless communication device, a first orbital angular momentum (OAM) signal in a first OAM mode. The first wireless communication device may receive, in the time-frequency resource occasion from the second wireless communication device, a second OAM signal, in a second OAM mode, that is orthogonal to the first OAM signal. Numerous other aspects are described.
