    Abstract: A base matrix is applied to an LDPC coder. The base matrix includes multiple parts, each including multiple of rows and columns, and containing integers, each representative of an identity matrix cyclically shifted in accordance with the integer or representative of an all-zero matrix. At least two of the multiple parts are configured such that their respective column-wise combinations of rows represents a same starting vector, cyclically shifted or interleaved, with zero or more but not all integers not indicative of the all-zero matrix of the same vector substituted by integers indicative of the all-zero matrix. The at least two of the multiple parts are not identical. The applied base matrix is used for one of encoding data using the LDPC coder or decoding data using the LDPC coder.

    Abstract: A first method comprises sending to at least one user equipment a signal, the signal including hopping parameters and being related to sounding reference signal (SRS) transmission, wherein at least one subset/SRS resource is sent for at least one numerology/beam pair, and wherein independent hopping is carried out in each subset for one specific numerology/beam pair or, when different SRS resources are configured for different numerologies/beams, the subset is defined for each SRS resource and independent hopping is made for each SRS resource; and receiving an SRS transmission from the at least one user equipment in accordance with the signal. A second method comprises receiving a signal from a gNB, the signal including hopping parameters and being related to sounding reference signal (SRS) transmission, wherein at least one subset/SRS resource is sent for at least one numerology/beam pair, and wherein independent hopping is carried out in each subset for one specific numerology/beam pair or, when different SRS resources are configured for different numerologies/beams, the subset is defined for each SRS resource and independent hopping is made for each SRS resource; and sending an SRS transmission to the gNB in accordance with the signal.
