A method for grouping of CS (and comb values) for DM-RS and SRS on shared time-frequency resources is described. The method includes dividing a RS space into at least a first region and a second region. The method also includes allocating, from the first region, a DM-RS sequence CS and/or a DM-RS comb for a DM-RS; and allocating, from the second region, a SRS sequence CS and/or a SRS comb for a SRS. The DM-RS and the SRS are on the same resources on an uplink shared channel (such as a PUSCH for example). The RS space comprises at least one of a CS set and a IFDM comb set. The CS set and/or the IFDM comb set of the first region is based at least in part on a number of physical resource blocks allocated to the uplink shared channel. Apparatus and computer readable media are also described.

Devices and methods for receiving a data file in a communication system. In one embodiment, the wireless communication device includes a transceiver, a memory, and an electronic processor. The transceiver is configured to send and receive data over a wireless communication network. The electronic processor is electrically coupled to the transceiver and the memory and configured to receive, with the transceiver, a first seed, a sequence of blocks, and a subsequent seed, cause the memory to save the sequence of blocks in the memory, and determine whether the subsequent seed is aligned with the first seed. When the subsequent seed is not aligned with the first seed, the electronic processor is configured to cause the memory to delete the sequence of blocks. When the subsequent seed is aligned with the first seed, the electronic processor is configured to cause the memory to maintain the sequence of blocks.

Real-time selection of interference cancellation schemes based on transmission parameters and amount of resource overlap between the desired payload and the interfering payload. Codeword level interference cancellation may be performed where the signal quality of the interfering signal indicates that the interfering payload will be decoded correctly. When performed, codeword level interference cancellation may be monitored to determine if decoding the interfering payload is converging. Other interference cancellation schemes may be selected based on the signal quality of the interfering signal or non-converging decode of the interfering payload. The number of iterations for iterative decoding in codeword level interference cancellation may be dynamically selected. The decoder output (e.g., soft bits) may be used to perform interference cancellations before the decoder is fully converged. Iterative decoding may be performed in multiple passes and soft decision output form one pass may be used to initialize the decoder for a subsequent pass.

The disclosed techniques allow for transmitting a signal stream from a sender to a receiver in an environment including multiple senders and receivers. The technique for the sender decomposes a data stream from the sender into multiple substreams, encodes a substream by a codeword, further superimposes multiple codewords to form a signal stream in an asynchronous manner, and transmits the signal stream to the receiver. A codeword can span over multiple blocks. The receiver receives a first codeword stream from a first sender, receives a second codeword stream from a second sender, the two codeword streams may be received at the same time as one signal, and decodes the first codeword stream and second codeword stream over a sliding window of multiple blocks.
