Disclosed are techniques for wireless communication. In an aspect, a wireless device maps data, a unique word (UW) sequence, and a suppression signal to a set of reserved time-domain resources based on a time-domain resource mapping and reservation rule to produce DFT input data. DFT processing is performed on the DFT input data to produce IFFT input data. IFFT processing is performed on the IFFT input data to produce the GI-based waveform with a data part (e.g., non-zero part) and a tail part (e.g., zero tail part). The wireless device may further transmit the GI-based waveform.

A method is provided for transmitting Acknowledgement/Negative Acknowledgement (ACK/NACK) information in a wireless communication system. A User Equipment (UE) configures a Physical Uplink Control Channel (PUCCH) format 3 for transmission of the ACK/NACK information. The UE transmits the ACK/NACK information for downlink transmission in a downlink subframe set including M downlink subframes in one uplink subframe, wherein M>1. A plurality of serving cells are configured for the UE and include one Primary Cell (PCell) and at least one Secondary Cell (SCell). The UE transmits the ACK/NACK information using a PUCCH format 1b when a first condition is met that comprises a condition in case where the ACK/NACK information corresponds to one Physical Downlink Shared Channel (PDSCH) without a corresponding Physical Downlink Control Channel (PDCCH) received only on the PCell in the downlink subframe set and the ACK/NACK information corresponds to an additional PDSCH indicated by detection of one corresponding PDCCH.

Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. A device may precode a phase tracking reference signal (PTRS) sequence by applying a single discrete Fourier transform (DFT) to the PTRS sequence. The device may map the DFT precoded PTRS sequence to a subset of resources of a set of resources, and may transmit a signal carrying the DFT precoded PTRS sequence. Additionally or alternatively, the device may receive a signal that includes a DFT precoded PTRS sequence, demap the DFT precoded PTRS sequence to a subset of resources of a set of resources, decode the DFT precoded PTRS by applying a single inverse DFT (IDFT) to the DFT precoded PTRS sequence, estimate a phase error based on the decoding, and apply a phase error correction to a set of additional symbols associated with the signal based on the estimated phase error.

Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communication are described. In one example, phase-noise compensation tracking signals (PTRS) may be transmitted using sets of resource blocks (RBs), where a frequency for each PTRS within the sets RBs is different from a frequency corresponding to a direct current (DC) tone. In another example, a time-domain-based PTRS may be used, where a discrete Fourier transform (DFT)-spread-orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (DFT-s-OFDM) symbol may include a cyclic prefix and a PTRS inserted in the DFT-s-OFDM symbol. Additionally or alternatively, a guard-interval-based DFT-s-OFDM symbol may include a PTRS that replaces part or all of a guard interval. In some examples, subsets of tones used for PTRS across a system bandwidth may be transmitted using a scrambled modulation symbol, where at least one antenna port may be used for the transmission of PTRS.

A system and method are provided for processing symbols for transmission. The method involves producing a single carrier offset quadrature amplitude modulation (OQAM) waveform signal from a set of K complex symbols. The method further involves pulse shaping 2K frequency domain samples of the OQAM waveform signal with J non-zero coefficients, where the J non-zero coefficients represent a frequency response of a conjugate symmetrical pulse shape, and K≤J≤2K−1. The approach has the advantage of avoiding self-interference, with the result that better BLER performance may be possible. The approach is applicable to any modulation order and also avoids bandwidth expansion. Flexibility is provided through a trade-off between PAPR vs. spectrum efficiency.

Each information-modulated CI code chip equals a CI code chip multiplied by one of the plurality of data symbols. The modulator modulates each CI symbol value onto a different subcarrier frequency to produce a multicarrier signal.
