A communications terminal receives a data communications signal via a random access channel. A processor searches for data bursts in a first time-slot that include one of a first set of signature sequences assigned to the first time-slot. When a data burst A in the first time-slot includes one of the first set of signature sequences, the data burst A in the first time-slot is an initial burst of a message from a first communications terminal. The processor determines whether a second time-slot includes a data burst B that includes the one signature sequence. When the second time-slot includes the data burst B, the message is a multi-burst message and that the data burst B is a second burst of the multi-burst message. When the second time-slot does not include the data burst B the message is a single-burst message that has been completed via the first time-slot.

In a receiver transparent Q-mode, i.e., a Q-mode that is only implemented by a transmitter, the receiver is unaware of the Q-mode state of the transmitter. In this type of Q-mode configuration, the transmitter could enter and exit Q-mode as desired while the receiver, could, for example, continue to function as if operating normally, such as in showtime. Through this approach, it is not necessary for the receiver to detect the transmitter's entry and exit of Q-mode.

Embodiments of the present invention provide a data processing method and apparatus, including: receiving X data streams through X physical lanes of an Ethernet interface, converting the X data streams into M data streams transmitted on M virtual lanes, and performing bandwidth adjustment on each data stream of the M data streams to obtain M first data streams; receiving Y data streams through Y physical lanes of the Ethernet interface, converting the Y data streams into N data streams transmitted on N virtual lanes, and performing bandwidth adjustment on each data stream of the N data streams to obtain N second data streams. In addition, a corresponding apparatus is further provided. By using the foregoing technical solution, received data streams of different sources and different frequencies can be processed.

A method of processing a signal in a compressive sensing receiver, includes: obtaining a first signal received via an antenna; generating a first baseband signal by mixing the first signal with a second signal generated by a local oscillator based on a pseudo random binary sequence (PRBS); removing a spurious from the first baseband signal based on a pre-stored estimation value obtained by estimating the spurious generated by the local oscillator in advance; and detecting a spectral slice including the first signal based on the first baseband signal from which the spurious is removed and a measurement matrix.

The disclosure relates to a method performed by a wireless device, for receiving system information from a network node of a wireless communication system. The system information is received in a synchronization signal (SS) block of an SS burst set comprising at least one SS block. The system information is multiplexed with information providing a time index indicating which SS block of the SS burst set that is being received. The method comprises receiving the information providing the time index, and receiving the system information, which comprises descrambling the system information using a scrambling sequence generated based on the information providing the time index. The method also comprises determining an accuracy of the information providing the time index, based on an error-detection code related to the received system information. The disclosure also relates to corresponding network node method and apparatus.
