Provided is a method of processing a WCDMA signal timing offset for a signal analyzer. The method includes estimating an integer multiple timing offset of WCDMA baseband sample data corresponding to an amount of at least one frame; generating a frequency domain signal which is time delayed corresponding to a fractional timing offset estimation resolution after generating the frequency domain signal by performing an FFT calculation on an already-known reference signal; converting each time-delayed frequency domain signal into a time domain signal by performing an IFFT calculation on each time-delayed frequency domain signal and calculating a correlation between an input signal from a position of the integer multiple timing offset and the time domain signal; and estimating a delay time leading to a maximum correlation as a fractional timing offset.

A method for receiving an Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing (OFDM) signal transmitted by a user device in a wireless network comprises determining which subcarrier frequencies are allocated to the user device; converting the OFDM signal to a frequency-domain values corresponding to the subcarrier frequencies; and decoding the frequency-domain values to recover data symbols encoded by the user device on the subcarrier frequencies. The decoding employs codes that are inverse to, complex-conjugate of, or complementary to a set of complex-valued codes employed by the user device to shape the OFDM signal into a superposition of cyclic-shifted pulse waveforms, wherein each of the pulse waveforms has one of the data symbols modulated thereon.

A wireless transmit/receive unit (WTRU) may utilize pre-configured rules for scaling power levels. Channels may be grouped based on a type of data to be transmitted. A power level of a channel from a group may be scaled using the pre-configured rules. A power level of a channel of a supplementary carrier may be scaled before another channel of a non-supplementary carrier.

A source node selects a plurality of original data components to transfer to at least one destination node. A plurality of transmitting nodes cooperatively encodes the original data components to generate a plurality of subspace coded components and a corresponding code matrix. Each of the transmitting nodes transmits a subset of the plurality of subspace coded components and corresponding code matrix, wherein at least one of the transmitting nodes has a rank that is insufficient for decoding the plurality of subspace coded components. A destination node may employ a plurality of receiving nodes to cooperatively receive a plurality of subspace coded components and their corresponding code vectors, wherein the rank of at least one of the receiving nodes is insufficient for decoding the subspace coded components. The destination node builds up the dimension of the subspace spanned by code vectors it collects from the receiving nodes and then decodes the subspace coded components.

An OFDM transmitter spreads original data symbols with a complex-valued spreading matrix derived from a discrete Fourier transform. Spread data symbols are mapped to OFDM subcarriers. Spreading and mapping are configured to produce a transmitted spread-OFDM signal with a low peak-to-average power ratio (PAPR) and orthogonal code spaces. In MIMO systems, the complex-valued spreading matrix can comprise a MIMO precoding matrix, and the code spaces can comprise MIMO subspaces. In Cooperative-MIMO, a combination of low code-space cross correlation and low PAPR can be achieved.

Disclosed are techniques for wireless communication. In an aspect, a user equipment (UE) receives a sounding reference signal (SRS) resource configuration, the SRS resource configuration indicating at least a comb pattern for at least one SRS resource allocated to the UE and a puncturing unit for the comb pattern, wherein the comb pattern is divided into one or more puncturing units, wherein each puncturing unit comprises one or more time units of the comb pattern, and wherein each of the one or more time units comprises two or more symbols, and refrains from transmitting all SRS transmissions of the at least one SRS resource within a first puncturing unit of the one or more puncturing units based on a determination that one or more SRS transmissions of the at least one SRS resource within the first puncturing unit are to be dropped.

Aspects of the present disclosure provide techniques for variable spreading factor codes for non-orthogonal multiple access (NOMA). In an exemplary method, a base station assigns, from a first codebook of N short code sequences of length K, a subset of the short code sequences to a number of user equipments (UEs); receives a signal including uplink data or control signals from two or more of the UEs, wherein a first uplink data or control signal is sent using a first subsequence of one of the assigned short code sequences, and a second uplink data or control signal is sent using a second subsequence of one of the assigned short code sequences or using one of the assigned short code sequences; and decodes each uplink data or control signal in the signal based on the assigned short code sequences and subsequences of the assigned the short code sequences.
