A method for performing radio communication by a first apparatus, and an apparatus for supporting same may be provided. The method may comprise the steps of: obtaining second bits by attaching cyclic redundancy check (CRC) bits to first bits associated with second sidelink control information (SCI); obtaining third bits on the basis of channel coding for the second bits; obtaining fourth bits by performing rate matching on the third bits on the basis of the number of modulation symbols, wherein the number of modulation symbols is obtained on the basis of the number of first bits, the number of CRC bits, a beta-offset value included in first SCI associated with the second SCI, an alpha value configured for each resource pool, the number of symbols associated with transmission of a physical sidelink shared channel (PSSCH), the number of resource elements (Res) associated with transmission of the second SCI for each symbol, and a gamma value, the gamma value being the number of vacant REs in a resource block (RB) to which a last symbol associated with the second SCI belongs; and transmitting the second SCI to a second apparatus via the PSSCH on the basis of scrambling, modulation, and mapping for the fourth bits.

The present invention provides a method performed by user equipment, and user equipment. The method includes: determining sidelink resource pool configuration information; and determining the number Q′.sub.SCI2 of coded modulation symbols of second stage SCI. The second stage SCI is second stage sidelink control information carried by a physical sidelink shared channel (PSSCH).

Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. In some systems, a base station may interrupt a user equipment (UE) during transport block (TB) encoding. The UE may cancel transmission (e.g., suppress processing) of a TB based on the interruption, such that a first subset of code blocks is encoded and a second subset is unencoded. In some cases, the UE may receive a re-transmission request for a code block including cyclic redundancy check (CRC) bits for the TB, where the CRC bits are not prepared. In one example, the UE may modify the CRC bits (e.g., set them to a common value, drop them, etc.) to reduce processing time. In another example, the base station may request re-transmission of all preempted code blocks, supporting TB CRC calculation. In another example, the base station or UE may extend a processing timeline for the re-transmission to support TB CRC calculation.

Disclosed are a communication technique which merges, with IoT technology, a 5G communication system for supporting a data transmission rate higher than that of a 4G system, and a system therefor. The present disclosure can be applied to intelligent services (for example, smart homes, smart buildings, smart cities, smart cars or connected cars, healthcare, digital education, retail, security- and safety-related services, and the like) on the basis of 5G communication technology and IoT-related technology. A method for a terminal of a communication system may comprise the steps of: receiving, from a base station, information indicating LBRM; identifying a parameter related to the maximum number of layers for one transport block; identifying the maximum number of layers for the one transport block on the basis of the parameter; identifying a transport block size to which the LBRM is applied, on the basis of the determined maximum number of layers; and transmitting or receiving data to or from the base station on the basis of the transport block size.

A terminal includes a receiving unit that receives, through a first component carrier of a plurality of component carriers forming carrier aggregation, scheduling information for one or more second component carriers of the plurality of component carriers; and a control unit that configures rate matching on the one or more second component carriers, based on configuration information on the rate matching included in the scheduling information.

A rate matching method including: determining a receiving capability of a receive end, where the receiving capability is used to indicate a maximum data processing volume of the receive end in a first transmission time, and/or the receiving capability is used to indicate a maximum data buffer volume of the receive end in a first transmission time; the first transmission time is used to transmit a first transport block to which a first code block belongs; determining N.sub.CB based on the receiving capability, where N.sub.CB represents a code block size used for rate matching; performing rate matching on the first code block based on N.sub.CB. The receive end can adjust, based on a processing capability and/or a buffer capability that are/is of the receive end in a period of time, the code block size used for rate de-matching, to avoid insufficiency in processing capability and/or buffer overflow at the receive end.

A transmitter is provided. The transmitter includes: a Low Density Parity Check (LDPC) encoder configured to encode input bits to generate an LDPC codeword including the input bits and parity bits to be transmitted in a current frame; a parity permutator configured to perform by group-wise interleaving a plurality of bit groups configuring the parity bits based on a group-wise interleaving pattern comprising a first pattern and a second pattern; a puncturer configured to puncture some of the parity-permutated parity bits; and an additional parity generator configured to select at least some of the punctured parity bits to generate additional parity bits to be transmitted in a previous frame of the current frame, based on the first pattern and the second pattern.

The invention provides a method and a communications device for transmitting information. The method includes: determining a quantity N of padding bits according to a quantity M of effective information bits included in a code block and a quantity L of effective input ports of a polar code encoder, where M and L are positive integers, and N is a difference between L and M; determining input bits that are to be input into the polar code encoder, where the input bits include the M effective information bits and the N padding bits; inputting, according to a mapping relationship between the L effective input ports and the input bits, the input bits into the polar code encoder through the L effective input ports to perform coding, so as to obtain coded bits; and transmitting the coded bits. This bit-padding manner has ensured successful information transmission.

In a transceiver, the accuracy of a packet time stamp can be improved by compensating for errors introduced by processing of the packet. A received packet can be received via multiple lanes. A packet time stamp can be measured using a start of frame delimiter (SFD). A last arriving lane can be used to provide a recovered clock signal. A phase offset between the recovered clock signal and the system clock of the transceiver can be used to adjust the time stamp. A position of the SFD within a data block can be used to adjust the time stamp. A position of the data block within a combined group of data blocks can be used to adjust the time stamp. Also, a serializer-deserializer delay associated with the last arriving lane can be used to adjust the time stamp.

Wireless communications systems and methods related to cross Component Carrier (CC) transmission are provided that assist in minimizing PAPR. A first wireless communications device repeats data across multiple CCs in order to increase coverage while maintaining power levels within approved limits. In order to reduce PAPR, a number of different methods and mechanisms may be used. Rate matching may be performed across the multiple CCs as though a single virtual BWP. Alternatively, each copy of the data on its separate CC may be modified differently in some way, such as by using different scrambling IDs or different redundancy versions. Additionally, when utilizing DFT-s-OFDM modulation, an alternative method is provided which may lower PAPR. The DFT method includes performing a DFT on the combined data, tone mapping to each of the carriers, and performing an IFFT for each carrier individually. Each IFFT may be different than the other.
