A resource assignment method, a related device, and an apparatus. The method includes: receiving, by a terminal from a network device, a resource assignment indication used to indicate frequency domain resource assignment, where the resource assignment indication is used to indicate a plurality of first resource units assigned to the terminal and that the plurality of first resource units are categorized into one or more groups, where a quantity of first resource units in each group is a product of powers of 2, 3, and 5; and performing, by the terminal, discrete Fourier transform based on the plurality of first resource units. According to the resource assignment method, flexible resource assignment can be performed, and spectrum utilization can be improved.

A user equipment (UE) in a wireless network employs orthogonal polyphase codes for encoding data symbols to generate a set of coded data symbols, which are modulated onto Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplex (OFDM) subcarrier frequencies assigned for use by the UE, and the resulting OFDM signal is transmitted to a base station in the wireless network. The orthogonal polyphase codes include pairs of orthogonal polyphase codes that are complex conjugates of each other.

In 60 GHz WiGig/IEEE 802.11ad, Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing (OFDM) is used to achieve higher throughput. However, OFDM has one problem of high Peak-to-Average Power Ratio (PAPR) caused by the summing up of the large number of subcarriers. A high PAPR signal degrades the efficiency of power amplifier (PA) and may cause spurious emissions because of the PA non linearity. In order to reduce PAPR, Generalized Frequency Division Multiplexing (GFDM) which has the characteristics of both single carrier and multi carrier transmission has been studied. By introducing GFDM, the number of subcarriers can be decreased while still maintaining a high throughput.

An apparatus that communicates in a mobile radio communications network, comprises signal-processing circuitry for provisioning a consecutive series of Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing (OFDM) subcarriers for uplink or downlink communications; provisioning a plurality of different selectable subcarrier spacings for the consecutive series of OFDM subcarriers; performing discrete Fourier transform (DFT) coding on a plurality of data symbols to produce DFT coded symbols; and performing an inverse-DFT on the coded symbols to produce a single-carrier frequency division multiple access signal that comprises a sum of the consecutive series of OFDM subcarriers. The single-carrier frequency division multiple access signal is provided with a particular one of a set of different symbol periods by selecting one of the plurality of different selectable subcarrier spacings.

The present invention relates to a method for transmitting, by a base station, a downlink signal using a plurality of transmission antennas comprises the steps of: applying a precoding matrix indicated by the PMI, received from a terminal, in a codebook to a plurality of layers, and transmitting the precoded signal to the terminal through a plurality of transmission antennas. Among precoding matrices included in the codebook, a precoding matrix for even number transmission layers can be a 2×2 matrix containing four matrices (W1s), the matrix (W1) having rows of a number of transmission antennas and columns of half the number of transmission layers, the first and second columns of the first row in the 2×2 matrix being multiplied by 1, the first column of the second row being multiplied by coefficient “a” of a phase, and the first column of the second row being multiplied by “−a”.

The invention relates to a wireless communication system, and more particularly, to a method and apparatus for transmitting control information. The wireless communication system may support carrier aggregation (CA). A method for transmitting control information to a base station by a terminal in a wireless communication system according to one aspect of the present invention comprises the steps of: receiving at least one of either a physical downlink control channel (PDCCH) or a physical downlink shared channel (PDSCH) from said base station via at least one serving cell provided on the terminal; and transmitting, to said base station, control information on the reception of said PDCCH or on the reception of said PDSCH indicated by the PDCCH. Said at least one serving cell may use a frequency division duplex (FDD) frame structure or a time division duplex (TDD) frame structure. Said control information may be transmitted using a control information feedback timing of a first serving cell determined in accordance with a preset criterion from said at least one serving cell.

An OFDM transmitter spreads original data symbols with a complex-valued spreading matrix derived from a discrete Fourier transform. Spread data symbols are mapped to OFDM subcarriers. Spreading and mapping are configured to produce a transmitted spread-OFDM signal with a low peak-to-average power ratio (PAPR) and orthogonal code spaces. In MIMO systems, the complex-valued spreading matrix can comprise a MIMO precoding matrix, and the code spaces can comprise MIMO subspaces. In Cooperative-MIMO, a combination of low code-space cross correlation and low PAPR can be achieved.

The disclosure relates in some aspects to providing a flexible channel bandwidth in a mobile radio communications network. For example, wherein a consecutive series of Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing (OFDM) subcarriers may be provisioned for uplink or downlink communications, a flexible frame structure may be provided by provisioning different subcarrier spacings for the consecutive series of OFDM subcarriers. The different subcarrier spacings may be used for transmitting and/or receiving OFDM signals.

Examples described herein include systems and methods which include wireless devices and systems with examples of full duplex compensation with a self-interference noise calculator. The self-interference noise calculator may be coupled to antennas of a wireless device and configured to generate adjusted signals that compensate self-interference. The self-interference noise calculator may include a network of processing elements configured to combine transmission signals into intermediate results according to input data and delayed versions of the intermediate results. Each set of intermediate results may be combined in the self-interference noise calculator to generate a corresponding adjusted signal. The adjusted signal is received by a corresponding wireless receiver to compensate for the self-interference noise generated by a wireless transmitter transmitting on the same frequency band as the wireless receiver is receiving.
