  • Publication number: 20240073079
    Abstract: Aspects of the present application provide methods and devices for a phase tracking reference (PT-RS) scheme for use by a single carrier Offset QAM (SC-OQAM) transmitter and receiver to estimate, and correct, phase errors that occur over the communication link between the SC-OQAM transmitter and receiver. A transmitter may set the sign (positive or negative) of PT-RS symbols dynamically allowing the transmitter to better utilize IQ interference caused by data symbols and other PT-RS symbols. Another aspect of the present disclosure provides a receiver that can estimate phase error due to phase noise without knowing the sign of PT-RS symbol or the sign of IQ interference. This type of phase error estimation improves the phase noise estimation performance, and thus may improve the overall block error rate (BLER) performance at the receiver.

    Abstract: Among other things, techniques are described for collision free path generation by connecting C-slices through cell decomposition. An environment is sampled at discrete headings of a vehicle to generate a configuration space (C-space) with one or more C-slices. A first C-slice is decomposed into one or more cells that represent free space. A C-slice adjacency list is generated for the first C-slice. A super adjacency list is derived that connects vertices of interest across the one or more C-slices to form a super adjacency graph. In embodiments, Dubins path is used for connecting the vertices of interest both within and across C-slices to ensure the kinematic feasibility of all the searched paths. An optimal path is navigated, wherein the optimal path is a shortest path from a starting pose to a goal pose on the super adjacency graph.
