Disclosed is a transmission scheme for transmitting a first modulated signal and a second modulated signal over the same frequency at the same time. According to the transmission scheme, a precoding weight multiplying unit multiplies a baseband signal after a first mapping and a baseband signal after a second mapping by a precoding weight and outputs the first modulated signal and the second modulated signal. In the precoding weight multiplying unit, precoding weights are regularly hopped.

The present invention employs a pilot scheme for frequency division multiple access (FDM) communication systems, such as single carrier FDM communication systems. A given transmit time interval will include numerous traffic symbols and two or more short pilot symbols, which are spaced apart from one another by at least one traffic symbol and will have a Fourier transform length that is less than the Fourier transform length of any given traffic symbol. Multiple transmitters will generate pilot information and modulate the pilot information onto sub-carriers of the short pilot symbols in an orthogonal manner. Each transmitter may use different sub-carriers within the time and frequency domain, which is encompassed by the short pilot symbols within the transmit time interval. Alternatively, each transmitter may uniquely encode the pilot information using a unique code division multiplexed code and modulate the encoded pilot information onto common sub-carriers of the short pilot symbols.

The present disclosure relates to a method for coding on a time-space two-dimensional channels, in which the data bits to be transmitted are coded from the time-domain and the space-domain, respectively, to form time-space two-dimensional coding. the proposed coding operation in the space-domain and the time-domain can adopt different coding structures, coding rates and modulation constellations; subsequently, the system expresses each coding method with code words, merges the code words to form a space-time two-dimensional codebook, stores the codebook at both ends of the sending terminal and the receiving terminal; next, the sending terminal selects the coding structure according to the code words of the time-domain, and encodes each data stream according to time-domain coding rates, and eventually forms data blocks of an equal length in the time-domain through the rate matching. Then, the system selects different code word serial numbers, rate matching tables and space time slicing modes according to the requirements of different scenarios for transmission rates, latency and code error rate, as well as channel states and size of data blocks to be transmitted; eventually, when a Time Space Concatenated Coding Mode is adopted, the sending terminal firstly performs time-domain coding according to the time-domain slicing mode and the time-domain code words.

Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. A base station may associate a first and second port with a set of antenna elements based on a first and second linear precoding vector. The base station may generate coefficients indicating a first combination and a second combination of a first data set for a first user equipment (UE) and a second data set for a second UE. The base station may apply the first and second linear precoding vectors to the first and second combinations, respectively, transmit a first demodulation reference signal (DMRS) and a second DMRS using a first comb corresponding to the first and second ports, and transmit at least a third DMRS indicating the coefficients using a second comb. The UEs may extract data from the precoded combinations by applying the coefficients and estimating channels associated with the first and second DMRS.

According to the transmission scheme, a precoding weight multiplying unit multiplies a baseband signal after a first mapping and a baseband signal after a second mapping by a precoding weight and outputs the first modulated signal and the second modulated signal.

Systems and methods for mixed space time and space frequency block coding are provided. In some embodiments, a method of operating a first node in a wireless communication network for providing time and frequency diversity includes precoding modulation symbols intended for a second node according to two antenna ports on which they are to be transmitted. In a first subset of Orthogonal Frequency-Division Multiplexing (OFDM) symbols, mapping the precoded modulation symbols to resource elements starting first with indices corresponds to frequency. In a different subset of OFDM symbols, mapping the precoded modulation symbols to resource elements in any two adjacent OFDM symbols starting first with indices corresponds to time. In this way, transmission efficiency may be increased by not having any resource elements unused. Additional flexibility for precoding may also be provided when there is no symbol pair mapped to resource elements across two resource blocks.
