The present disclosure provides a method for transmitting uplink control information, a method for receiving uplink control information, a method for configuring a downlink HARQ feedback function, a terminal and a base station. The method for transmitting uplink control information comprises: transmitting uplink control information to a base station, wherein the uplink control information comprises at least one of decoding statistical information for downlink transmission, suggestion information for downlink scheduling, or channel quality related information.

A method and apparatus for variable rate compression with a conditional autoencoder is herein provided. According to one embodiment, a method for compression includes receiving a first image and a first scheme as inputs for an autoencoder network; determining a first Lagrange multiplier based on the first scheme; and using the first image and the first Lagrange multiplier as inputs, computing a second image from the autoencoder network.

This application provides a method for communicating a modulation and coding scheme (MCS). A terminal device obtains a modulation order, a code rate, or a spectral efficiency, determines an index of a reference MCS from a mapping table based on the obtained modulation order, code rate, or spectral efficiency, and reports the index of the reference MCS to a network device. The mapping table includes one or more mapping relationships between an MCS index and a modulation order, a code rate, or a spectral efficiency. The terminal device may process uplink or downlink data based on the determined MCS, thereby improving data transmission reliability.

Systems, methods, and instrumentalities are described herein for supporting CBG-based retransmission with variable CBG size using variable length HARQ-ACK. A WTRU may receive a configuration to use a first table. The first table may be associated with a maximum number of code block groups per transport block (maxCBG/TB). The WTRU may determine a number of HARQ-ACK bits to send for code blocks. The determination may depend on whether an indication is received to switch from the first table to a second table. On a condition that the indication to switch from the first table to the second table is received, the WTRU may send a number of HARQ-ACK bits that is equal to two times the maxCBG/TB. The WTRU may receive a retransmission of a number of code blocks, wherein a code block group size depends on a sent number of HARQ-ACK bits.

Embodiments of the present invention provide information transmitting and receiving methods, a user equipment, and a base station. The information transmitting method performed by the user equipment includes: receiving indication information, the indication information indicating sub-block sizes of a plurality of sub-blocks obtained by splitting an information block to be transmitted; splitting the information block to be transmitted into the plurality of sub-blocks according to the indication information; processing respective sub-blocks to generate transmission data, and transmitting the transmission data.

Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. In some systems, a network may schedule a user equipment (UE) for multiple transmission/reception point (TRP) communication. The network may transmit a single downlink control information (DCI) message to the UE to dynamically configure multiple transmission configuration indicator (TCI) states for the multiple TRPs. In a first example, the DCI message may include a bit field indicating a set of antenna ports and the multi-TRP scheme for transmission. In a second example, the DCI message may include a separate field indicating the multi-TRP scheme (e.g., based on UE capabilities). In a third example, the DCI may indicate redundancy versions (RVs) for different TRPs in an RV field or across multiple fields. In a fourth example, the DCI may include an indication of a precoding resource block group (PRG) size that may be interpreted differently based on the indicated multi-TRP scheme.

A communication method, and related apparatuses are disclosed, to provide an MCS corresponding to a lower code rate, so as to better adapt to a requirement of a URLLC service. The communication method includes: determining N MCS indexes in an MCS table, where a value that is obtained by multiplying a code rate by 1024 and that corresponds to an MCS index X in the N MCS indexes is less than or equal to a first threshold, where X is an integer greater than or equal to 0, N is a positive integer, and N is greater than or equal to X; and sending at least one of the N MCS indexes.

A method, apparatus, and a computer-readable storage medium are provided for improved transport block size (TBS) indication and channel quality indicator (CQI) reporting for lower target block error ratios (BLERs).

The method may further include determining, a second transport block size, the second transport block size determined based at least on the one or more transport block sizes that are activated and the first transport block size, and receiving a downlink transmission from the network node with the second transport block size. In an additional example implementation, the method may include a user equipment determining a channel quality indicator based at least on a physical downlink shared channel received from a network node and transmitting the channel quality indicator to the network node.

The configuration method includes: determining a modulation and coding scheme (MCS) set based on a higher-layer configuration parameter; and configuring an MCS of data based on the MCS set; where the higher-layer configuration parameter indicates whether data transmission supports a 16 quadrature amplitude modulation (16QAM) modulation scheme, and the MCS set includes one or more of: a first MCS set and a second MCS set.
