Abstract:
Various novel concepts and schemes pertaining to non-orthogonal multiple access for wireless communications are described. A group orthogonal coded access (GOCA) scheme is introduced to reduce multi-user interference (MUI) and improve performance. A repetition division multiple access (RDMA) scheme is introduced to differentiate user equipment (UEs) by different repetition patterns. A low-density spreading (LDS) scheme is introduced to reduce MUI and improve performance.
Abstract:
A method of utilizing same indication fields of time slots for different purposes includes: transmitting an indication signal in an indication field of at least one first time slot on a dedicated physical channel (DPCH); and transmitting at least one known symbol in an indication field of at least one second time slot on the DPCH, wherein the known symbol is arranged for estimating channel characteristics.

Abstract:
A wireless transmitter has a digital baseband module and a radio-frequency (RF) transmitter. The digital baseband module generates a multi-mode modulated signal by using a plurality of digital synthesizers. The RF transmitter has a frequency synthesizer and a digital power amplifier (DPA). The frequency synthesizer generates an oscillation signal with an RF carrier frequency. The DPA generates a multi-standard RF signal according to the multi-mode modulated signal and the oscillation signal.

Abstract:
A Hybrid Automatic Repeat Request (HARQ) feedback scheme that employs a multi-state NACK feedback processing is proposed. A transport block (TB) contains a plurality of code blocks (CBs). When all CBs of the TB are successfully decoded, a one-bit TB ACK is feedback. When at least one CB of the TB is not correctly decoded, a one-bit TB NACK is feedback. In addition, a multi-bit HARQ CB NACK feedback is provided. The multi-bit HARQ CB NACK can point more precisely to the erroneous parts of the TB and trigger efficient retransmission by skipping retransmission of successfully decoded CBs. The network can disable the multi-bit CB NACK for certain UEs, e.g., to reduce overhead. The UE can disable the multi-bit CB NACK, e.g., to save power.
Abstract:
One communication system includes a first die, a second die and a front-end circuit. The first die has an up-converter and a digital baseband (DBB) processing circuit. The second die has a down-converter. The front-end circuit couples an antenna to the first and second dies. Another exemplary communication system includes a first die, a second die and a front-end circuit. The first die performs digital baseband (DBB) processing, and generates a first signal with a higher frequency according to a second signal, wherein the second signal is derived from an output signal of the DBB processing. The second die generates a third signal with a lower frequency according to a fourth signal. The front-end circuit couples the first signal from the first die to an antenna and couples the fourth signal from the antenna to the second die.
Abstract:
Methods and apparatuses pertaining to uplink power consumption reduction for a Narrow Band-Internet of Things (NB-IoT) apparatus. The NB-IoT apparatus may transmit uplink data to a network apparatus via an uplink channel. The network apparatus may decode the uplink data. The network apparatus may further transmit an acknowledgement (ACK) indicator to the NB-IoT apparatus before receiving all the uplink data if the uplink data is decoded successfully. The NB-IoT apparatus may monitor whether an ACK indicator is received from the network apparatus during a transmission gap of the uplink channel. The NB-IoT apparatus may further terminate uplink data transmission if the ACK indicator is received.
