    摘要: A method for communicating DM-RS symbols to support MIMO transmissions having five or more layers of spatial multiplexing. A first subframe is communicated carrying two leading symbols of a first length-4 OCC sequence and two leading symbols of a second length-4 OCC sequence, and a second subframe is communicated carrying two trailing symbols of the first length-4 OCC and two trailing symbols of the second length-4 OCC sequence. Optionally four length-2 OCCs can be carried in a similar manner or, alternatively, in different frequency bands or resource block pairs of a common subframe.
