Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communication are described. For example, the described techniques provide for a wireless device transmitting an initial transmission associated with a data payload, such as a hybrid automatic repeat request (HARQ) payload. The initial transmission may include a set of bits modulated using a first bit ordering scheme, and the set of bits may include a first bit subset that are transmitted with a lower transmission reliability than a second bit subset of the set of bits. The wireless device may modulate the first bit subset using a second bit ordering scheme that differs from the first bit ordering scheme to generate a modulated bit set. The second bit ordering scheme may be associated with a higher transmission reliability for the first bit subset. The wireless device may transmit the second transmission for the data payload with the modulated bit set.

Abstract: Provided is an oral Pt(IV) anticancer prodrug containing a 3-bromopyruvate as an axial ligand, with a molecular formula of cis,trans,cis-[Pt(1R,2R-diaminocyclohexane)(OH)(3-bromopyruvate)(C2O4)]. It is a prodrug of oxaliplatin and 3-bromopyruvic acid is a small molecular glycolysis inhibitor. The prodrug is able to simultaneously act on DNA replication and glycolytic pathways of cancer cells, giving full play to the advantage of double-acting targets. The oral Pt(IV) anticancer prodrug is synthesized by using oxaliplatin as a starting material, performing axial oxidation with H2O2 and neutralizing the oxidized product with 3-bromopyruvic acid.

Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. A network entity may transmit a set of spatially multiplexed synchronization signals in a same symbol period. The set of spatially multiplexed synchronization signals may indicate a parameter, such as a cell identifier, for the network entity. The network entity may select a sequence for each synchronization signal of the set.

The UE may determine that the set of spatially multiplexed synchronization signals were transmitted by the network entity using multiple antenna ports. The UE may determine the parameter for the network entity based on receiving the set of spatially multiplexed synchronization signals.

In response to determining that the first link is not classified as a non-rewrite link, a first replacement link is generated for the first link.

Abstract: A transmission of information from a secondary to a primary node occurs in a plurality of transmission instances which are logical time durations. A secondary node receives an allocation of periodic transmission instances for a scheduling request indicator (SRI) and an allocation if periodic transmission instances for a sounding reference signal (SRS). In a particular transmission instance allocated for the transmission of both SRS and SRI, the secondary node transmits the SRI without transmitting the SRS if the SRI indicates a pending scheduling request; otherwise, the secondary node transmits the SRS without transmitting the SRI.

The UE selects a preamble parameter configuration from the fixed set of preamble parameter configurations in response to the received configuration number and then transmits a preamble from the UE to the nodeB using the preamble parameter configuration indicated by the configuration number.
