Systems and methods for wireless communications are disclosed herein. In some embodiments, a wireless communication method includes applying, by a base station, code sequences or scrambling codes to repetitions of broadcast information of a plurality of resources of a cell of the base station. Each of the code sequence or the scrambling codes being specific to a corresponding one of the plurality of resources. Each of the plurality of resources is a beam of the cell. In addition, the base station transmits, to a wireless communication device, the repetitions of the broadcast information with the code sequences or the scrambling codes applied.

Systems, methods, and circuitries are disclosed for determining Precoding Resource Block Groups (PRGs). In one example, a processor of a base station (BS) is configured to determine a plurality of PRGs that includes a number N consecutive Physical Resource Blocks (PRBs) over which a same precoder assignment is used, starting from a reference PRB. The plurality PRGs include a first boundary PRG, a second boundary PRG, and one or more other PRGs. The first boundary PRG is located at an upper boundary of a bandwidth part. The first boundary PRG comprises fewer than N PRBs when the upper boundary of the bandwidth part is not aligned with a PRG boundary. The second boundary PRG comprises fewer than N PRBs when a lower boundary of the bandwidth part is not aligned with a PRG boundary. A downlink data channel is transmitted to a UE in accordance with the precoder assignments.

Various aspects of the present disclosure generally relate to wireless communication. In some aspects, a wireless device may map a transport block (TB) across multiple component carriers (CCs) associated with at least one slot of time-frequency resources. The wireless device may transmit the TB based at least in part on mapping the TB. Numerous other aspects are described.

Systems, methods, and circuitries are disclosed for generating demodulation reference signals (DM-RS). In one example, a method for a user equipment (UE), includes receiving a configuration of a plurality of bandwidth parts (BWPs) configured with respective numerologies; generating a first pseudo-random sequence based at least in part on one or more of a physical cell ID, a virtual cell ID, a symbol index, a slot index, a frame index, a scrambling ID, or a UE ID for generation of a first DM-RS sequence, wherein a initialization seed for the first pseudo-random sequence is based on a scrambling ID and a slot index, wherein, for the plurality of BWPs a respective scrambling ID is associated with each BWP, and wherein the slot index is defined in accordance with the numerology of the associated BWP; and mapping, for a first BWP, the first DM-RS sequence to at least one DM-RS symbol.

In an aspect of the disclosure, a method, a computer-readable medium, and an apparatus are provided. The apparatus may be a UE. The apparatus may receive a transmission over a precoded channel. The transmission may include a layer having a plurality of symbols, each symbol having a plurality of modulated tones precoded on a per-tone basis. The receive layer may be associated with a power delay profile. The apparatus may estimate the precoded channel based on a time support of the power delay profile.

Disclosed is a reference signal generation method in which generated are reference signal sequences applied, if the number of antenna ports used in data transmission is 9 or more, the reference signal sequences are mapped to resource regions allocated to the plurality of antenna ports, respectively, and a subframe to which the reference signal sequences are mapped is transmitted to a terminal. In the reference signal generation method, a resource region to which mapped is a reference signal sequence with respect to the ninth antenna port among the plurality of antenna ports is identical to a resource region to which mapped is a reference signal sequence with respect to the tenth antenna port, and the reference signal sequence with respect to the ninth antenna port and the reference signal sequence with respect to the tenth antenna port are multiplexed by means of CDM.

Disclosed in the present application are a uplink control channel transmission method and device, for solving the problems, in the prior art, that no relevant solution for defining the transmission structure of a long NR-PUCCH with different lengths in consideration with whether the intra-slot frequency hopping is supported is available yet. The method includes: determining a transmission length or format of a uplink control channel (PUCCH) in a slot; determining a transmission structure of the PUCCH on the basis of the transmission length or format; and transmitting the PUCCH in the slot according to the transmission structure.

Techniques discussed herein can facilitate RS (Reference Signal) sequence generation and mapping, and/or precoder assignment, for NR (New Radio). One example embodiment employable at a NR wireless communication device comprises processing circuitry configured to: generate one or more PN (Pseudo Noise) sequences based at least in part on an initial state of a PN generator; extract, for each PRB (Physical Resource Block) of one or more PRBs, an associated portion of an associated PN sequence of the one or more PN sequences, based at least in part on a reference subcarrier index, independent of a bandwidth part configuration and of a maximum supported number of PRBs; and generate, for each PRB of the one or more PRBs, an associated set of RS(s) for that PRB based at least in part on the extracted associated portion of the associated PN sequence for that PRB.

Aspects of the present disclosure disclose various methods for grouping network resources into precoder resource groups (PRGs) for precoding in MIMO communication. A user equipment (UE) may select a common precoder that may not be restricted to a codebook for precoding the resources in the same PRG. These resource grouping methods provide the UE with the flexibility to select a precoder that is well suited to the channel or bandwidth. Moreover, the base station may reduce downlink signaling because it does not need to signal the precoder choice to the UE. In some examples, the base station may receive PRG based channel state information feedback that facilitates DL precoding. Other aspects, embodiments, and features are also claimed and described.

When a plurality of terminals share the same resources in a wireless communication system, and when control information such as acknowledgement/negative acknowledgement (ACK/NAK) information or scheduling information is transmitted, a method of efficiently performing code division multiplexing (CDM) is required to distinguish the plurality of terminals. In particular, it is necessary to develop a method by which a code sequence of CDM can be selected and used according to each cell condition. Provided is a method of forming a signal in a wireless communication system in which a plurality of terminals commonly share frequency and time resources. The method includes the operations of receiving condition information in a cell; selecting one of a plurality of time domain orthogonal sequences having different lengths, according to the condition information; and allocating the selected time domain orthogonal sequence to a control signal symbol block.
