A wireless device and a method therein for performing one or more operations based on available energy. The wireless device is configured to operate in a wireless communications network. Based on an amount of energy available for operation and based on control information, the wireless device determines an allocation of the amount of available energy between at least a first energy part and a second energy part. The first energy part is to be used in a sensing operation using a sensing operation configuration and the second energy part is to be used in a communicating operation using a communicating operation configuration. The wireless device performs based on the determined allocation, one or more operations out of: the sensing operation using the first energy part and the sensing operation configuration, and the communicating operation using the second energy part and the communicating operation configuration.

A method performed by a STA may comprise transmitting an HE LTF of a data unit. The HE LTF may have a number of symbols based on a number of space-time streams utilized for the data unit. The HE LTF may be transmitted on a subset of subcarriers of a 20 MHz channel, a 40 MHZ channel or an 80 MHz channel.

In a multiuser (MU) multiple antenna system (MAS), a central processing unit is communicatively coupled to multiple distributed wireless terminals (WTs) via a network. The central processing unit processes channel measurements indicative of channel conditions between the multiple distributed WTs and a plurality of user devices and selects a plurality of WTs from the multiple distributed WTs to enhance channel space diversity within the MU-MAS. The central processing unit calculates (Multiple Input, Multiple Output) MIMO weights from the channel measurements for precoding a plurality of data streams that are transmitted concurrently from the plurality of WTs to the plurality of users, wherein the MIMO weights provide for a plurality of independent MIMO channels.

In a multi-user communication system, a pre-coder in a transmitter comprises a Discrete Fourier Transform (DFT) spreader provides data symbols spread with Fourier coefficients to generate DFT-spread data symbols. An OFDM modulator, such as an inverse-DFT, modulates the DFT-spread data symbols onto OFDM subcarriers to produce a pre-coded OFDM transmission signal. The Fourier coefficients reduce the transmission signal's peak to average power.

Aspects of the disclosure provide a method for avoiding reselection of fake cell. The method includes transmitting a first request for network service of a wireless communication network in a first cell from user equipment, receiving a first reject message without integrity protection, adding the first cell to a set-aside cell list, and selecting a cell from other cells that are not included in the set-aside cell list to request network service.

In a communication network that comprises a reciprocal channel between a transmitter and a receiver, the receiver produce a measurement of the reciprocal channel and exploits channel reciprocity to agree with the transmitter on a random code derived from the measurement. The transmitter employs the random code to produce linearly coded data, which is transmitted to the receiver. The receiver uses the random code to decode the linearly coded data by solving a system of linear equations.
