Abstract:
Systems and methods of providing timing information for initial access in an unlicensed band are described. A UE monitors a new radio discovery signal (NRDS-U) window in an unlicensed band for a DRS transmission that is constrained to be transmitted within the NRDS-U window. The UE determines initial access information, including an offset that indicates when the DRS transmission occurs within the NRDS-U window, and engages in initial access dependent on the offset. The offset is from a radio frame or half radio frame boundary or the start of the NRDS-U window. The offset is indicated in three least/most significant bits an SSB index or from an s1-offset field in a MIB of the SSB. When the base station uses a DFS channel, the base station transmits a periodic signal to emulate a radar signal.

A method for performing an uplink MIMO transmission according to one embodiment of the present invention comprises the following steps: transmitting, from a first subframe, a first data block and a second data block through a first HARQ process and a second HARQ process, respectively; receiving, at a second subframe, uplink scheduling control information on the first data block and control information which indicates inactivation of the second data block; setting HARQ feedback information on the second data block to an ACK state; and performing retransmission of the first data block from a third subframe on the basis of the uplink scheduling control information on the first data block. Retransmission of the second data block may not be performed until uplink scheduling control information on the second data block is received.

Abstract:
The present invention relates to a method for operating a power save mode in a wireless LAN system. The method involves transmitting a power save multi-poll (PSMP) frame containing a power save mode (PSM) of a non-access point (AP) station (STA) to a first station and to a second station which are paired with an AP on the basis of multiple input multiple output (MIMO) technology. Information on the PSM contains downlink transmission start offset which indicates the point in time of starting a downlink transmission period, a downlink transmission duration which indicates the duration of the downlink transmission period, and transmission object station identification information. The method further involves transmitting a data frame to the first station and to the second station on the basis of the MIMO technology during the downlink transmission period. The transmission object station identification information indicates a group identifier (group ID) for indicating an object station group including the first station and the second station, which are object stations to which the AP transmits the data frame on the basis of the MIMO technology.
