    摘要: Aspects of the present disclosure provide a scheme for generating a multiple access (MA) signal that include mapping each of at least one stream of bits to generate a set of modulated symbols and transmitting the set of modulated symbols. The spreading signatures that are selected to map the at least one stream of bits are selected, at least in part, based on a set of compatibility rules. The spreading involves mapping each stream of bits using a respective spreading signature from a set of spreading signatures to generate a respective set of modulated symbols, wherein real spreading signature components of the spreading signatures are orthogonal to each other and imaginary spreading signature components of the spreading signatures are orthogonal to each other.

    摘要: Some aspects of the present disclosure introduce a new downlink (DL) bandwidth part (BWP) and a new uplink (UL) BWP for communication in the RRC_INACTIVE state. In addition, aspects of the disclosure also provide for configuring generic parameters of the BWP, which include, but not limited to, frequency location, bandwidth, subcarrier spacing (SCS), and cyclic prefix (CP). Some aspects of the present disclosure may support a reinterpretation of generic parameters of a BWP, for example which may be configured for the RRC_CONNECTED state, to be used in the RRC_INACTIVE state. Some aspects of the present disclosure are directed to implicit DL BWP switching in the RRC_INACTIVE state where no BWP identifier (ID) indication is needed as part of the switching mechanism.

    摘要: A transmission method, and corresponding transmitter are provided that use a combination of sparse symbol mapping with non-sparse spreading. This can be used for a low-PAPR multiple access scheme where good performance is achieved by sparse domain multi-user detection. The provided method uses per-frequency block time-domain non-sparse spreading across sparse blocks which provides PAPR reduction. Sparsity patterns are partitioned into groups that allows PAPR reduction. The method may be used to support the transmission of a single-carrier signal, e.g. DFT-spread signal, to provide PAPR reduction. More generally the provided method can use any low-PAPR waveform, for example any single-carrier waveform or any single-subcarrier waveform.

    摘要: A bit-level operation may be implemented prior to modulation and resource element (RE) mapping in order to generate a NoMA transmission using standard (QAM, QPSK, BPSK, etc.) modulators. In this way, the bit-level operation is exploited to achieve the benefits of NoMA (e.g., improved spectral efficiency, reduced overhead, etc.) at significantly less signal processing and hardware implementation complexity. The bit-level operation is specifically designed to produce an output bit-stream that is longer than the input bit-stream, and that includes output bit-values that are computed as a function of the input bit-values such that when the output bit-stream is subjected to modulation (e.g., m-ary QAM, QPSK, BPSK), the resulting symbols emulate a spreading operation that would otherwise have been generated from the input bit-stream, either by a NoMA-specific modulator or by a symbol-domain spreading operation.

    摘要: Control signaling mechanisms are provided to support data transmissions to or from a user equipment (UE) in an inactive state. In some embodiments, a UE in an inactive state receives DCI including: a cyclic redundancy check (CRC) scrambled by a radio network temporary identifier (RNTI) that is specific to a group of UEs, the group of UEs including the UE; and a resource assignment for a data transmission to the UE. The data transmission is then received on a physical shared channel. In further embodiments, a UE in an inactive state receives DCI including: a CRC scrambled by a paging RNTI; and a resource assignment for a paging message to the UE. A data transmission is received by the UE in the paging message or in a further transmission that is scheduled by the paging message.

    摘要: Systems and methods for transmitting uplink control information, for example ACK/NACK, while in RRC_inactive state, are provided. Uplink control information is transmitted while in RRC_INACTIVE state by transmitting a sequence from a set of possible sequences to convey the uplink control information, the transmitted sequence associated with a value of the uplink control information. The sequence is asynchronously transmitted. Signalling may be used to configure a transmission resource within which to transmit the sequence, wherein the transmission resource has a time duration that is longer than a time duration to transmit the sequence. This has the effect of introducing a gap following sequence transmission that can ensure the sequence transmission does not interfere with a data transmission.
