    Abstract: Technology for a base station operable to transmit downlink reference signals to user equipments (UEs) is disclosed. The base station can identify a UE to receive a set of pre-configured downlink reference signals from the base station. The set of pre-configured downlink reference signals can include a set of pre-configured pilot symbols in accordance with a defined reference signal transmission pattern that is characterized by a first pilot symbol spacing parameter (Nt) in a subcarrier time domain and a second pilot symbol spacing parameter (Nf) in a subcarrier frequency domain. The base station can transmit to the UE the set of pre-configured downlink reference signals in accordance with the defined reference signal transmission pattern. The UE can be configured to detect the set of pre-configured downlink reference signals and perform a channel estimation based on the set of pre-configured downlink reference signals.

    Abstract: A base station can obtain channel quality conditions for mobile devices in a scheduling interval and identify a channel quality, a target transmission scheme, and a transmission power level for each of the mobile devices. The base station can assign a unique orthogonal CDMA code and can force the mobile devices to transmit K repeated bursts of uplink data such that each of the mobile devices has a rotated phase shift based on the unique orthogonal CDMA code assigned to each of the mobile devices with each of the mobile devices multiplexed on a same physical channel using an overlaid CDMA operation. The base station can process K repeated bursts that are multiplexed on the same physical channel using the overlaid CDMA operation. The base station can separate the mobile devices according to the unique orthogonal CDMA code and use IQ accumulation according to combine the K repeated bursts.
