Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for encoding and decoding are described. To encode a vector, an encoder allocates information bits of the vector to channel instances of a channel that are separated into groups. The groups may vary in size and allocation of the information bits is based on a base sequence of a given length. During decoding, a decoder assigns different bit types to channels instances by dividing a codeword into a plurality of groups and assigning bit types to channel instances of the plurality of groups using the base sequence.

Abstract: A reference signal periodically transmitted by a base station in a wireless network can have certain proprietary properties to help prevent detection and utilization of the signal for unauthorized positioning of mobile devices. More specifically, a network node can obscure and introduce time-variation in mapping between positioning signals and a corresponding physical base stations. The network node may also introduce time variations in fields of a base station almanac (BSA) provided to subscribing user equipments (UEs). The information transmitted to the subscribing UEs may be encrypted.

Abstract: Techniques are described for wireless communication. A first method includes measuring, by a first device, a condition of a wireless channel; and generating at least one channel side information feedback message based on the measured condition of the wireless channel. The at least one channel side information feedback message provides information on a relationship of a set of parameters, including a data rate parameter, an error probability parameter, and at least one of a deadline parameter or a transmission link parameter. A second method includes measuring, by a first device, interference on a wireless channel; identifying an interfering device for the wireless channel based on the measurement; and generating a channel side information feedback message based on the measured interference on the wireless channel. The channel side information feedback message indicates the interfering device for the wireless channel and a correlation of interference from the interfering device with time or frequency.

Abstract: Methods, apparatus, and computer software are disclosed for communicating within a wireless communication network including a scheduling entity configured for full duplex communication, and user equipment (UE) configured for half duplex communication. In some examples, one or more UEs may be configured for limited (quasi-) full duplex communication. Some aspects relate to scheduling the UEs, including determining whether co-scheduling of the UEs to share a time-frequency resource is suitable based on one or more factors such as an inter-device path loss.

Abstract: A base station in a cellular wireless communications system uses one or more control algorithms to control a transmission pattern of a 1×RTT or DO discovery beacon. The transmission pattern enables access terminals using any one of multiple wake-up periods and wake-up offsets to discover all macrocell frequencies in a finite amount of time. In addition, for base stations allocating a single transmit chain to both 1×RTT and DO beacons, the transmission pattern enables a definite maximum discovery time for both 1×RTT and DO beacons for all access terminals entering the base station coverage.

The interference cancellation method comprises receiving multi-paths of a signal; and performing iterative interference cancellation to remove multi-path interference, wherein the performing iterative IC comprises estimating a Signal-to-Interference-plus-Noise Ratio (SINR) at each of a plurality of pre-determined rake receiver finger delays, and performing successive Channel Estimation (CE) and IC on rake receiver fingers according to their estimated SINRs, and wherein the CE of a next finger does not start until interference of a previous finger is removed from a sample buffer. The method may further comprise improving estimated rake receiver finger delay, and each iteration decreases the amount of interference observed by each finger.
