A base station includes a transmit path circuitry to transmit an indication of whether a subscriber station is configured with precoding matrix indicator/rank indicator (PMI/RI) reporting. The transmit path circuitry sets a pre-coding granularity to multiple physical resource blocks in the frequency domain to perform a same pre-coding over a bundled resource block if the subscriber station is configured with PMI/RI reporting. The bundled resource block includes multiple consecutive physical resource blocks in the frequency domain. The base station also includes a receive path circuitry to receive feedback from the subscriber station.

Embodiments of the disclosure provide a system and method for providing channel feedback information (CFI) from a user equipment device to a base station. CFI is transmitted from the user equipment device on first and second communication channels. The user equipment device is operable to measure the channel rank of a downlink channel and to select a preferred channel rank that is used to configure the CFI that is transmitted to the base station. The base station is operable to use the preferred channel rank to interpret the CFI transmitted by the user end device.

The present disclosure discloses a method for identifying a wireless AP performed at a server. The method includes: obtaining network connection information of terminal devices; for each terminal device, determining a rank for each respective wireless AP to which the terminal device connects by: analyzing corresponding network connection information to determine a first number of times of connections between the terminal device and the wireless AP; analyzing corresponding network connection information to determine a second number of times of connections between the wireless AP and each terminal device connecting to the wireless AP; and determining the rank for the wireless AP based on a weighted average of the first number of times of connections and the second number of times of connections; and returning identifier information of wireless APs as a first-type wireless AP to which the terminal device connects and their corresponding ranks to the terminal device.

The disclosure relates to a 5G or 6G communication system for supporting a higher data transmission rate. A method performed by an apparatus of a wireless communication system is provided. The method includes receiving, from a base station, first information related to interference among a plurality of user equipments (UEs) that are to receive a resource allocation, second information related to a number of available resources, and third information related to a resource allocation reward associated with each of the plurality of user equipments (UEs), selecting a plurality of qubits based on the first information and the second information, and generating, based on the third information, resource allocation information derived from the plurality of qubits, where the resource allocation to the plurality of UEs is based on the resource allocation information.

The invention relates to a transmitting device, which performs a resource sensing procedure to acquire information about radio resources usable for transmitting data at a later point in time. After data becomes available for transmission, the transmitting device performs an autonomous radio resource allocation to select radio resources within a transmission window to be used for transmitting the data, based on the information acquired by the resource sensing procedure during a sensing window. The autonomous radio resource allocation comprises selecting radio resources in primary subframes of the transmission window preferably over radio resources in secondary subframes of the transmission window. The secondary subframes correspond to those subframes in the sensing window during which the transmitting device did not perform the resource sensing procedure, and the primary subframes correspond to those subframes in the sensing window during which the transmitting device did perform the resource sensing procedure.

Methods and systems are provided for determining frequency allocation. A first frequency band, a second frequency, and a third frequency band are ranked based at least in part on a sector power ratio (SPR). The first frequency band is determined to have a highest rank, which indicates that the first frequency band has a lowest SPR of frequency bands being ranked. Based on the first frequency band having the highest rank, the first frequency band and either the second frequency band or the third frequency band are assigned for carrier aggregation.

Various aspects of the present disclosure generally relate to wireless communication. In some aspects, a user equipment (UE) may transmit an indication of a requested periodicity for uplink reference signals associated with improving UE power efficiency. The UE may receive an indication of resources for transmitting uplink reference signals based at least in part on the requested periodicity. Numerous other aspects are described.

A channel selection method and a transmit end are provided. The method includes: ranking multiple channels, and generating a backoff count value; sequentially decrementing, from an initial timeslot, the backoff count value in each timeslot according to a ranking sequence of the channels and busy/idle states of all the channels until the backoff count value is 0; and selecting, from the multiple channels according to a result of the decrement performed on the backoff count value and a busy/idle state of at least one of the multiple channels, a channel that is used by the transmit end for sending data. The method and the transmit end can improve channel utilization.

The present disclosure relates to a pre-5.sup.th-Generation (5G) or 5G communication system to be provided for supporting higher data rates Beyond 4.sup.th-Generation (4G) communication system such as Long Term Evolution (LTE). Embodiments of the present invention provide apparatus and method for allocating resources to transmit and receive vehicle service information in a vehicle communication system. According to an embodiment of the present invention, a base station includes a control unit for allocating a resource for a terminal which provides a second service based on priorities of a used resource allocated for a first service and a requested resource for the second service among total preconfigured resource for a vehicle service, and a transmitter for transmitting the resource allocation information to the terminal.

Embodiments of the present invention provide a secure edge device for contactless resource distribution and resource crediting from an automobile. In this way, the edge device may be affixed to or embedded within the side or the mirror of an automobile and be able to communicate with a third party device using near field communication. Upon authentication of a user, the edge device may communicate with the third party to transmit and present data about the resource distribution to the automobile display. The system allows for the user to select the resource distribution via the automobile display and provide a completion of resource distributions.
