Embodiments of a station (STA) and method for communication in accordance with phase noise compensation are generally described herein. The STA may determine, based at least partly on one or more operational parameters, whether to perform phase noise compensation of data symbols of a received protocol data unit (PDU). For instance, the STA may compare the operational parameters with one or more thresholds. The STA may further determine a method of phase noise compensation based at least partly on one or more operational parameters. As an example, the STA may determine a type of interpolation to be used for an interpolation of phase noise estimates of pilot symbols to determine phase noise estimates of data symbols. Example operational parameters may include a signal quality metric, a carrier frequency offset (CFO) measurement and/or modulation and coding scheme (MCS).

A method and structure for probabilistic shaping and compensation techniques in coherent optical receivers. According to an example, the present invention provides a method and structure for an implementation of distribution matcher encoders and decoders for probabilistic shaping applications. The techniques involved avoid the traditional implementations based on arithmetic coding, which requires intensive multiplication functions. Furthermore, these probabilistic shaping techniques can be used in combination with LDPC codes through reverse concatenation techniques.

Embodiments of this disclosure provide a phase noise compensation apparatus and method and a receiver, in which modified signals are determined according to estimated values of an imperfection parameter of a transmitter and training sequence signals in transmission signals, and phase noises of the received signals are determined according to the modified signals, hence, an effect of the imperfection parameter of the transmitter on the phase noise is taken into account, and the phase noise may be accurately estimated, thereby performing compensation on the phase noise, and ensuring a transmission efficiency and performance of the system.

A system and method that measures the code non-linearity of a phase mixer (PMIX) during active operation of a clock and data recovery (CDR) circuitry. The PMIX circuitry generates a clock signal based on the PMIX codes. The PMIX circuitry receives a plurality of codes and based on the code value, adjusts the phase of the PMIX output clock signal. A number of times each of the plurality of PMIX codes occurs within a respective time period is determined. Non-linearity values are determined based on the number of times. The non-linearity values are stored in a memory.

In one aspect, the adaptive modulation and coding method includes, in a user terminal, receiving a modulation and coding scheme (MCS) index, acquiring a modulation order corresponding to the received MCS index as a modulation order of a downlink shared channel, from a first table in which MCS indexes are associated with modulation orders including 8 and transport block size (TBS) indexes, and a second table is provided in which MCS indexes are associated with modulation orders of less than 8 and TBS indexes, and the first table is provided by puncturing a combination of a modulation order and a TBS index in the second table so that the first table and the second table are equal in a number of bits for an MCS index. In other aspects, a user terminal and a radio base station are provided.

A method for demodulating a received signal relating to a sequence of transmitted symbols that have been modulated by continuous phase modulation includes normalizing samples of a sequence of samples generated from the received signal, to obtain a normalized sequence of samples, wherein an amplitude of each sample of the normalized sequence of samples has an absolute value equal to unity; estimating, on the basis of the normalized sequence of samples, a time offset and a frequency offset of the received signal, and using the estimated time offset and the estimated frequency offset for compensating the normalized sequence of samples for the time and frequency offsets, to obtain a compensated sequence of samples; and determining a sequence of symbols corresponding to the transmitted sequence of symbols on the basis of the compensated sequence of samples. Also disclosed is a receiver for demodulating a received signal relating to a sequence of transmitted symbols that have been modulated by continuous phase modulation.
