  • Patent number: 10447320
    Abstract: An object is to mitigate interference by using effective knowledge or information as to an interference signal while reducing an increase in the amount of calculation. A terminal device includes a reception unit that receives downlink control information from a base station apparatus. In a case of a prescribed transmission mode, a downlink shared channel destined for the terminal apparatus is demodulated on the basis of a power offset between transmit power of the terminal apparatus and transmit power of another terminal apparatus in the downlink shared channel included in the downlink control information. Whether or not to perform interference cancellation is determined according to a value of the power offset.

The uplink data channel includes an uplink data bit, a bit representing an identifier of the terminal apparatus, a first error detection bit generated from the uplink data bit, and a second error detection bit generated from the identifier of the terminal apparatus. The first error detection bit is scrambled using the identifier of the terminal apparatus, and the second error detection bit is scrambled using the identifying signal.

  • Publication number: 20190181910
    Abstract: In a case that a large number of terminal apparatuses that are accommodated by contention-based radio communication technologies share a frequency resource, the number of data signals of the terminal apparatus that are non-orthogonally multiplexed in the spatial domain increases. If terminal apparatuses, of which the number exceeds the number of receive antennas or the spreading factor transmit uplink data at the same time, it is tantamount to a presence of terminal apparatuses using the same spreading code, and inter-user interference becomes a problem.

  • Publication number: 20190165826
    Abstract: In a case that a large number of terminal apparatuses accommodated in a contention based radio communication technology share a frequency resource, the number of data signals of the terminal apparatuses which are non-orthogonally multiplexed in the spatial domain increases. Therefore, in a case that the number of non-orthogonally multiplexed data signals of the terminals is considerably large, residual interference after removing interference in the reception processing degrades transmission performance.
