Example implementations include a method, apparatus and computer-readable medium of wireless communication for applying resource element (RE) skipping to a symbol where a beam change is to occur. A transmitter and a receiver determine that a beam change is to occur during the symbol. The transmitter allocates bits to a subset of REs for the symbol in a frequency domain allocation. Each RE of the subset is spaced apart by a number of empty REs. The transmitter performs an inverse fast Fourier transform (IFFT) on the REs to generate a time domain signal including a number of repetitions of a transmitted waveform. The receiver receives the time domain signal during at least a portion of the symbol. The receiver performs a fast Fourier transform (FFT) on the time domain signal and determines transmitted bits or a channel from the subset of REs output from the FFT.

This application provides a signal transmission method and apparatus, a reflector, and a receiver. In one example method, a reflector receives W excitation signals, where W exciters may be configured to carry data and a reference signal that are reflected by the reflector; and the reflector reflects data and L reference signals to a receiver, where the L reference signals are respectively carried in L excitation signals in the W excitation signals, where W and L are both integers greater than or equal to 1, and L is less than or equal to W.
