A method and a device for receiving a PPDU in a wireless LAN system are presented. Particularly, a reception STA receives a PPDU from a transmission STA through a broadband and decodes the PPDU. The broadband is the 320 MHz band or 160+160 MHz band. The PPDU includes an STF signal. The STF signal is generated on the basis of a first STF sequence for the broadband. The first STF sequence is the sequence in which phase rotation is applied to the sequence in which a second STF sequence is repeated. The second STF sequence is the STF sequence for the 160 MHz band defined in the 802.11ax wireless LAN system. The first sequence is the sequence in which a preset M sequence is repeated, and is defined as {M 1 −M 0 −M 1 −M 0 −M −1 M 0 −M 1 −M 0 −M −1 M 0 M −1 M 0 M 1 −M 0 M −1 M}*(1+j)/sqrt(2).

Certain aspects of the present disclosure generally relate to wireless communications and, more particularly, to methods and apparatus for rate-matching control channels using polar codes. An exemplary method generally includes encoding a stream of bits using a polar code, determining a size of a circular buffer for storing the encoded stream of bits based, at least in part, on a minimum supported code rate and a control information size, and performing rate-matching on stored encoded stream of bits based, at least in part, on a mother code size, N, and a number of coded bits for transmission, E.

According to an embodiment of the present disclosure, a method performed by a terminal may include obtaining, from encoded bits, a first bit group and a second bit group, arranging the encoded bits such that bits of the first bit group and bits of the second bit group are interleaved, modulating the arranged bits in the first bit group and the second bit group by using different modulation rates, and transmitting, to a base station, a signal obtained based on the modulated bits.

A transmitter is provided. The transmitter includes: an outer encoder configured to encode input bits to generate outer-encoded bits including the input bits and parity bits; a zero padder configured to constitute Low Density Parity Check (LDPC) information bits including the outer-encoded bits and zero bits; and an LDPC encoder configured to encode the LDPC information bits, wherein the LDPC information bits are divided into a plurality of bit groups, and wherein the zero padder pads zero bits to at least some of the plurality of bit groups, each of which is formed of a same number of bits, to constitute the LDPC information bits based on a predetermined shortening pattern which provides that the some of the plurality of bit groups are not sequentially disposed in the LDPC information bits.

This disclosure provides methods, devices and systems for wireless communications over a 320 MHz bandwidth. Some implementations more specifically relate to signaling techniques for indicating the bandwidth of a physical layer convergence protocol (PLCP) protocol data unit (PPDU) transmitted in a secondary 160 MHz channel of the 320 MHz bandwidth. In some implementations, an access point (AP) may transmit an aggregated PPDU (A-PPDU) that includes a first sub-PPDU transmitted within a primary 160 MHz channel and a second sub-PPDU transmitted within a secondary 160 MHz channel. In such implementations, the first sub-PPDU may carry bandwidth information indicating the bandwidth of the first sub-PPDU within the primary 160 MHz channel and the second sub-PPDU may carry bandwidth information indicating the 320 MHz bandwidth.

This disclosure provides systems, methods, and apparatuses for wireless communication that can be used for channel puncturing. A wireless station (STA) may receive an indication of a first puncturing pattern to be used for transmitting or receiving data over a wireless channel, where the first puncturing pattern is defined by a first wireless communication protocol release and the STA is configured to operate according to a second wireless communication protocol release. The STA may select, from a set of puncturing patterns defined by the second wireless communication protocol release, a second puncturing pattern that includes one or more non-punctured subchannels that are subsets of one or more corresponding non-punctured subchannels of the first puncturing pattern. The STA may use the second puncturing pattern to transmit or receive one or more packets over the wireless channel.

Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communication are described. Some wireless communications network may operate in accordance with an open-RAN (ORAN) network specification which may support functional splitting between the ORAN distributed unit (O-DU) and the ORAN radio unit (RU). The O-DU may communicate with the O-RU using control messaging. The control message may include a resource resource element (RE) mask and a resource symbol mask, the resource RE mask indicating frequency resources to be allocated for a reference signal transmission across a set of antenna ports and the resource symbol mask indicating time resources to be allocated for the reference signal transmission. Additionally or alternatively, the O-DU may transmit a control message including a puncturing resource RE mask indicating frequency resources for applying a puncturing pattern and a symbol mask indicating time resources for applying the puncturing pattern during a transmission.

This disclosure provides methods, devices and systems for increasing the transmit power of wireless communication devices operating on power spectral density (PSD)-limited wireless channels. Some implementations more specifically relate to tone mapping techniques and physical layer convergence protocol (PLCP) protocol data unit (PPDU) designs that support duplicate (or “DUP mode”) transmissions with channel puncturing. In some implementations, a wireless communication device may transmit a PPDU carrying user data over a wireless channel excluding one or more punctured subchannels, where the user data is transmitted in a DUP mode. As such, the user data may be mapped to a number (N) of tones spanning a first portion of the wireless channel and a duplicate copy of the user data may be mapped to N tones spanning a second portion of the wireless channel.

A method for encoding or transmitting. In some embodiments, the method includes forming a set of one or more unpunctured codewords by coding a plurality of payload bits at a mother code rate, removing a plurality of punctured bits from the set of one or more unpunctured codewords to form a set of one or more punctured codewords, and transmitting the set of one or more punctured codewords. In some embodiments, the number of punctured bits exceeds a first threshold, or the number of punctured bits exceeds a second threshold.

Implementations of this disclosure generally may relate to the field of wireless communications. More specifically, implementations described in this disclosure relate to different 3GPP LTE and LTE-A system enhancements to address the issue and support reliable V2X operation in the high mobility environments. Several solutions to improve the V2X system performance in the high mobility vehicular channel propagation conditions are described. Some aspects relate to the suggestion of a new DMRS patterns within individual subframes that promote more accurate CFO estimation. Moreover, another aspect provides DMRS mapping or puncturing patterns to transmit individual DMRS in a periodic pattern on respective OFDM/SC-FDMA symbols so that they do not occupy all REs of the OFDM/SC-FDMA symbols, respectively.
