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.

Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. A base station may identify, for a user equipment (UE), a configuration for receiving a set of downlink control information (DCI) messages on one or more layers of a set of layers of a downlink shared channel. The base station may transmit, to the UE, a first DCI message in a downlink control channel, where the first DCI message may schedule resources of the downlink shared channel for the set of piggybacking DCI messages. The UE may receive the first DCI message and identify the configuration for receiving the set of DCI messages on the one or more layers of the downlink shared channel. The UE may receive, from the base station, the set of DCI messages on the one or more layers of the downlink shared channel based on the identified configuration.

Aspects of this disclosure relate to a user equipment (UE) for wireless communication within a network. The UE receives, from a radio access network (RAN) entity, one of an uplink indication or an uplink port identification associated with an uplink port. The uplink indication and the uplink port identification are associated with an uplink message. The UE also maps one of the uplink indication to a sidelink indication associated with a sidelink message or the uplink port identification to a sidelink port identification associated with a sidelink port and the sidelink message. The UE further superposition codes the uplink message and the sidelink message into a broadcast transmission based on one of (A) the uplink indication and the sidelink indication, or (B) the uplink port and the sidelink port. In addition, the UE transmits, to the RAN entity, the broadcast transmission.

An access point (AP) generates a multi-user request to send (MU-RTS) frame for protecting a channel bandwidth during a communication exchange, and transmits the MU-RTS frame in multiple duplicate first packets in respective communication subchannels that span the channel bandwidth. Each first packet has a first packet format that conforms to a legacy protocol. The AP receives multiple clear-to-send (CTS) frames from multiple client stations via respective communication subchannels that span the channel bandwidth. The AP generates a trigger frame configured to prompt the multiple client stations to transmit respective data to the AP. After transmitting the multiple first packets, the AP transmits the trigger frame in one or more second packets that span the channel bandwidth and that conform to a second packet format defined by a non-legacy protocol. The AP receives, from the multiple client stations, data frames that are responsive to the trigger frame.

The present disclosure describes systems and methods for selecting modulation and coding schemes (MCS) per-sub-band, and in some examples, per-stream. In some examples, channel condition metrics regarding wireless communication conditions from a communication node of a wireless access system may be received. Based at least on the received channel condition metrics, a modulation and coding scheme may be selected. In some examples, the selected modulation and coding scheme may be transmitted to various modulators/demodulators, encoders/decoders, and/or other communication nodes within the wireless access system.

An transmission apparatus of the present disclosure comprises a transmission signal generator which, in operation, generates a transmission signal that includes a legacy preamble, a non-legacy preamble and a data field, wherein the non-legacy preamble comprises a first signal field and a second signal field, the second signal field comprising a first channel field and a second channel field, each of the first channel field and the second channel field comprising a common field that carries resource unit (RU) allocation information and a user-specific field that carries per-user allocation information for one or more terminal stations, and wherein a part of the user-specific field of one of the first channel field and the second channel field whichever is longer than the other channel field in length before appending padding bits is relocated to the other channel field; and a transmitter which, in operation, transmits the generated transmission signal.

This application relates to the field of communications technologies, and discloses a method and an apparatus for indicating a number of repetitions, so that a configuration of a number of repetitions of an SRS and/or a PUSCH is more adaptive to a channel change. The method includes: A network device sends DCI to a terminal device, where the DCI includes first indication information, and the first indication information indicates a number of repetitions of an SRS and/or a PUSCH. Because the DCI has a faster update process than RRC signaling, and overheads are smaller than those of the RRC signaling, the network side device may flexibly configure the number of repetitions of the SRS and/or the PUSCH by using the DCI, to better adapt to the channel change, and further improve a channel estimation capability and signal demodulation performance.

A heating, ventilation, and air-conditioning (HVAC) system includes a first control unit and a second control unit. The first control unit is communicatively coupled to a first plurality of HVAC units, a first interactive display, and a first plurality of wireless sensors using a Wi-Fi direct protocol. The second control unit is communicatively coupled to a second plurality of HVAC units, a second interactive display, and a second plurality of wireless sensors over a Wi-Fi network. The first control unit is operable to connect to the second control unit using the Wi-Fi direct protocol. Upon connecting to the second control unit, the first control unit switches communications with the first plurality of HVAC units, the first interactive display, and the first plurality of wireless sensors from the Wi-Fi direct protocol to the Wi-Fi network.

Provided are a transmission parameter determination method, a terminal device and a network device. The method comprises: the terminal device determines a first transmission parameter according to the channel busy ratio (CBR) and the priority of service to be transmitted; and the terminal device sends the service to be transmitted using the first transmission parameter, and further comprises: the terminal device acquires at least one proportion coefficient, the at least one proportion coefficient being configured by a network device or pre-configured in the terminal device, wherein the operation of determining the first transmission parameter according to the CBR and the priority of the service to be transmitted comprises: the terminal device determines a second transmission parameter according to the CBR and the priority of the service to be transmitted, and processes the second transmission parameter using the at least one proportion coefficient to obtain the first transmission parameter.

The present disclosure relates to enabling and disabling of codewords in multi-subframe grants. In particular, dynamic and subframe based enabling/disabling of codewords is enabled even if other control parameters including the resource allocation is performed for multiple subframes. For instance, signal from a scheduling entity to a scheduled entity comprises control information including the resource grant common for multiple subframes and a plurality of codewords for each subframe, and a codeword indication indicating enabling or disabling of one or more codewords for each of the multiple subframes. For each subframe it is determined whether a codeword from the plurality of codewords in said subframes is enabled or disabled according to the codeword indication and/or which codeword is enabled or disabled. The indication of enabling and disabling may alternatively be done by using modulation and coding scheme indicator values which are not associated with a particular modulation and coding scheme.
