Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communication are described. A user equipment (UE) may receive control signaling indicating a preamble configuration. The UE may receive a preamble in a time domain. The preamble may include a set of modulated bits during a first portion of an initial symbol duration of a slot. The set of modulated bits may include one or more of a first subset of network temporary identifier bits or a second subset of modulation and coding scheme (MCS) bits. The UE may process the preamble during a second portion of the initial symbol duration of the slot based on the preamble configuration.

In one embodiment, an apparatus comprises: a baseband processor having a preamble generation circuit to generate a preamble for an orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) transmission, the preamble generation circuit to generate the preamble having a first portion comprising a first plurality of symbols and a second portion comprising a second plurality of symbols, where the preamble generation circuit is to generate at least some of the second plurality of symbols having at least one frequency disruption between successive symbols of the second portion; a digital-to-analog converter (DAC) coupled to the baseband processor to convert the first plurality of symbols and the second plurality of symbols to analog signals; a mixer coupled to the DAC to upconvert the analog signals to radio frequency (RF) signals; and a power amplifier coupled to the mixer to amplify the RF signals.

Techniques are disclosed relating to generating and receiving radio frames with multiple portions that have different target geographic areas. A data frame may include a first partition that includes a physical layer encoding of first data to be transmitted in a first geographic area, where the first geographic area is defined by a first threshold distance from the one or more transmitters. The data frame may include a second that includes a physical layer encoding of second data to be transmitted in a second geographic area, where the second geographic area is defined by a second, greater threshold distance from the one or more transmitters.

Methods and apparatus for subframe configuration and generation in a multi-cell multi-carrier system. A frame for radio transmission in the system consists of multiple subframes, and each subframe consists of multiple Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing (OFDM) symbols. Training symbols, frequency-domain data scrambling, size of Fast-Fourier Transform (FFT), or length of cyclic prefix can be configured differently for each subframe to facilitate different applications, such as unicasting or broadcasting.

The present invention provides an apparatus of transmitting broadcast signals. The apparatus includes, an encoder for encoding service data, a bit interleaver for bit interleaving the encoded service data, a mapper for mapping the bit interleaved service data into a plurality of OFDM (Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplex) symbols to build at least one signal frame, an OFDM modulator for modulating data in the built at least one signal frame by an OFDM scheme and a transmitter for transmitting the broadcast signals having the modulated data.

Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. In a wireless communications system, a user equipment (UE) and a base station implement reference signal modulation for conveying feedback information. In some examples, the UE may receive, from the base station, control signaling indicating to the UE to convey feedback information by modulating an uplink reference signal. The UE may receive, from the base station, a set of downlink messages. In some cases, the UE may transmit, to the base station, a set of uplink reference signals in response to receiving the downlink messages, where the set of uplink reference signals may be modulated by the UE to convey the feedback information. In some cases, the uplink reference signal may be a sounding reference signal (SRS) with embedded feedback information.

A transmitter transmitting payload data using Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexed (OFDM) symbols, including: a frame builder configured to receive the payload data and to receive signalling data to use in detecting and recovering the payload data at a receiver, and to form the payload data with the signalling data into frames for transmission: a modulator configured to modulate a first OFDM symbol with the signalling data and to modulate one or more second OFDM symbols with the payload data; a signature sequence processor circuit providing a signature sequence; a combiner circuit combining the signature sequence with the first OFDM symbol; a prefixing circuit prefixing a guard interval to the first OFDM symbol to form a preamble; and a transmission circuit transmitting the preamble and the one or more second OFDM symbols. The guard interval is formed from time domain samples of a part of the signature sequence.

A transmission method simultaneously transmitting a first modulated signal and a second modulated signal at a common frequency performs precoding on both signals using a fixed precoding matrix and regularly changes the phase of at least one of the signals, thereby improving received data signal quality for a reception device.

A transmitting apparatus and a receiving apparatus are provided. The transmitting apparatus includes: an encoder configured to generate a low density parity check (LDPC) codeword by performing LDPC encoding; an interleaver configured to interleave the LDPC codeword; and a modulator configured to modulate the interleaved LDPC codeword according to a modulation method to generate a modulation symbol. The interleaver is formed of a plurality of columns each including a plurality of rows and includes a block interleaver configured to divide each of the plurality of columns into a first part and a second part and interleave the LDPC codeword, the number of rows constituting each column divided into the first part is determined differently depending upon the modulation method, wherein the number of rows constituting each column divided into the second part is determined depending upon the number of rows constituting each column divided into the first part.

Operations of a system can comprise scheduling multiple data traffic channels for a user equipment device. Scheduling the multiple data channels can comprise scheduling a first data traffic channel of the multiple data traffic channels based on a legacy scheduling procedure and scheduling a second data traffic channel of the multiple data traffic channels based on an iterative procedure. The operations can also comprise transmitting, to the user equipment device, first information via multiple downlink control channels and transmitting, to the user equipment device, second information via the multiple data traffic channels.
