Abstract:
Methods, systems, and storage media for providing and/or obtaining feedback for data transmissions in an unlicensed shared medium are described. In embodiments, an apparatus may include radio control circuitry to demodulate and decode a data transmission from an evolved node B (eNB). The apparatus may include and processing circuitry, coupled with the radio control circuitry, and the processing circuitry is to receive the data transmission from the radio control circuitry and generate feedback based on the data transmission. The radio control circuitry may also control radio-frequency circuitry to determine whether a physical channel in an unlicensed shared medium is unoccupied, and transmit the feedback to the eNB over the physical channel when the physical channel is unoccupied according to the determination. Other embodiments may be described and/or claimed.
Abstract:
Embodiments described herein relate generally to a communication between a user equipment (UE) and an evolved Node B (eNB). An eNB may allocated uplink and downlink regions associated with machine-type communication (MTC) to a UE. The allocation of uplink and downlink regions may be asymmetric. The eNB may identify parameters based on this asymmetric region allocation to avoid resource collision during communication of hybrid automatic repeat request (HARQ) acknowledgement (ACK) or negative acknowledgement (NACK) feedback between the eNB and the UE. Other embodiments may be described and/or claimed.

Abstract:
Devices for and methods of providing low latency 5G FDD communications are generally described. A HARQ ACK/NACK for an xPDSCH is transmitted in the xPUCCH of the same or next subframe as the xPDSCH and xPDCCH. An xPUSCH is generated in the same subframe in response to an xPDCCH and HARQ ACK/NACK response is carried by another xPDCCH or xPHICH in and the xPUCCH are at opposite ends of the same subframe, DL and UL subframe are delayed relative to each other, or at least one of the DL and UL subframe has an additional blank portion, portion with data associated with another UE or portion that contains a reference signal, broadcast signal or control information.
Abstract:
Various embodiments include an apparatus to be employed by an enhanced Node B (eNB), the apparatus comprising communication circuitry to receive, from a user equipment (UE), feedback information and control circuitry, coupled with the communication circuitry, to identify a codeword from a three-dimensional codebook based on the feedback information received from the UE, wherein the communication circuitry is further to precode data to be transmitted to the UE based on the codeword. An apparatus to be employed by a UE and additional methods are described.
