This disclosure relates to a 5G or a pre-5G communication system to be provided to support a higher data rate following 4G communication systems such as LTE. A method according to one embodiment of the present invention is a method for attenuating interference of a signal received in a receiver of a filter bank multicarrier (FBMC) system, the method comprising the steps of: separately extracting data and a reference signal in a received FMBC symbol; obtaining a diagonal element channel of a desired symbol through a channel estimation from the extracted reference signal; generating an interference channel matrix of a non-diagonal component of the desired symbol, a diagonal component and a non-diagonal component of an interference symbol using a channel estimated diagonal component; reconfiguring to a banded channel matrix using an interference channel matrix; and attenuating the interference contained in the extracted data using the reconfigured banded channel matrix information and filter information of a transmitter of the filter bank multicarrier system.

A device, method or system implements operations to receive compressed samples of wireless transmissions from a plurality of user equipment (UEs) traveling through different communication regions in a wireless network, and detect information in the wireless transmissions of the UEs based on the compressed samples.

The present invention relates to a method of transmitting and a method of receiving signals an corresponding apparatus. One aspect of the present invention relates to an efficient L1 signaling method for an efficient transmitter and an efficient receiver using the efficient L1 signaling method for an efficient cable broadcasting.

An OFDM system generates a channel estimate in the time domain for use in either a frequency domain equalizer or in a time domain equalizer. Preferably channel estimation is accomplished in the time domain using a locally generated reference signal. The channel estimator generates an initial estimate from a cross correlation between the time domain reference signal and an input signal input to the receiver and generates at least one successive channel estimate. Preferably the successive channel estimate is determined by vector addition (or subtraction) to the initial channel estimate. The at least one successive channel estimate reduces the minimum mean square error of the estimate with respect to a received signal.

Certain aspects of the present disclosure relate to methods and apparatus for implementing a data transmission scheme for Narrow-Band Internet of Things (NB-IoT). A User Equipment (UE) combines pairs of antenna ports to generate at least first and second combined antennas ports. The UE receives reference signals transmitted in a narrow band region of a larger system bandwidth, and for each combined port, adds the references signals received on resource elements (REs) of each of the combined pair of antenna ports. The UE determines channel estimates for each combined antenna port based on the added reference signals for the combined port.

Various aspects of the present disclosure generally relate to wireless communication. In some aspects, a user equipment (UE) may receive, via a single carrier communication, a synchronization signal block (SSB) with time division multiplexed symbols that include a physical broadcast channel (PBCH) symbol and one or more of a primary synchronization signal (PSS) symbol, a secondary synchronization signal (SSS) symbol, or a demodulation reference signal (DMRS) symbol. The UE may demodulate the PBCH symbol using a channel estimation for the PBCH symbol that is based at least in part on one or more channel estimations of the PSS symbol, the SSS symbol, or the DMRS symbol. Numerous other aspects are described.

Techniques for performing channel estimation in an orthogonal time, frequency and space (OTFS) communication system include receiving a wireless signal comprising a data signal portion and a pilot signal portion in which the pilot signal portion includes multiple pilot signals multiplexed together in the OTFS domain, performing two-dimensional channel estimation in a time-frequency domain based on a minimum mean square error (MMSE) optimization criterion, and recovering information bits using a channel estimate obtained from the two-dimensional channel estimation.

Various strategies and devices for same are disclosed to correct for/mitigate frequency offset (such as due to differing accuracies between an oscillator of a transmitting device and an oscillator of a receiving device) and Doppler shift (such as due to a changing relative position between a receiving device and a transmitting device). These strategies may be employed in a MIMO setting, such as, e.g. a stationary base station and a plurality of terminal devices (e.g. user devices, mobile stations, etc.), in which the transmissions for each terminal device may be associated with a different frequency offset and a different Doppler shift.

A communication method and apparatus are provided. The method includes: A terminal device determines a first transmission time period and a second transmission time period, where the first transmission time period includes X1 time units, the second transmission time period includes X2 time units, and the first transmission time period does not overlap the second transmission time period. The terminal device sends a first reference signal in the first transmission time period and a first uplink signal in the second transmission time period, where the first uplink signal includes at least one of a PUSCH, a PUCCH, or a DMRS. Therefore, the terminal device may additionally send the first reference signal, to improve uplink channel estimation performance of a network device. This improves coverage performance of a communication system.

Aspects of the present disclosure may involve use of a radio frequency receiver and in such a receiver, tracking multipath gains and delays of multipath reflections corresponding to an OFDM multipath transmission channel. The gains and delays are based on time-domain evolution of the channel impulse response. Multipath reflections are searched for and then used to calculate channel correlation information to provide channel estimations to aid in mitigating or cancelling distortion of the received signal.
