Abstract: A device and method for communicating frequency-coded symbols that include data elements and reference symbols are disclosed. In one aspect, a carrier frequency band includes a plurality of subcarrier frequency bands. Data elements are transmitted and received on respective pairs of adjacent subcarrier frequency bands to provide diversity. Reference symbols are transmitted and received on predetermined subcarrier frequency bands. Muting is applied to selected subcarrier frequency bands based on the number and frequency configuration of the reference symbols.

Abstract: A method is provided in a wireless device for controlling output transmission power from the wireless device. A set is selected among a plurality of sets of power step values, which reside in a memory of the wireless device, responsive to criteria defined in the wireless device. A power control command is received from a radio network node. One of the power step values of the selected set is selected responsive to the power control command. The output transmission power from the wireless device is controlled responsive to the selected power step value. Related methods in radio network nodes and apparatuses are disclosed.
