Abstract: A user equipment (UE) can include processing circuitry configured to decode control information of a physical down-link control channel (PDCCH) received via a resource within a control resource set (CORESET) occupying a subset of a plurality of OFDM symbols within a slot. At least one of the symbols in the subset coincides with a pre-defined symbol location associated with a demodulation reference signal (DM-RS) of a PDSCII. The DM-RS can be detected within the slot, the DM-RS starting at a symbol location that is shifted from the pre-defined symbol location and following the subset of symbols. Downlink data scheduled by the PDCCH and received via the PDSCH can be decoded, where the decoding is based on the detected DM-RS.

Abstract: A three-dimensional data encoding method includes: combining first point cloud data and second point cloud data to generate third point cloud data; and encoding the third point cloud data to generate encoded data. The encoded data includes identification information indicating whether each of three-dimensional points included in the third point cloud data belongs to the first point cloud data or the second point cloud data.

Abstract: A three-dimensional data encoding method includes: encoding a first flag indicating whether a node having a parent node different from a parent node of a current node is to be referred to in encoding of the current node included in an n-ary tree structure of three-dimensional points included in three-dimensional data; selecting a coding table from N coding tables according to occupancy states of neighboring nodes of the current node, and performing arithmetic encoding on information of the current node using the coding table selected, when the first flag indicates that the node is to be referred to; and selecting a coding table from M coding tables according to the occupancy states of the neighboring nodes of the current node, and performing arithmetic encoding on information of the current node using the coding table selected, when the first flag indicates that the node is not to be referred to.

Abstract: A three-dimensional data encoding method includes encoding information of a current node included in an N-ary tree structure of three-dimensional points included in three-dimensional data, where N is an integer greater than or equal to 2. In the encoding, first information is encoded, the first information indicating a range for one or more referable neighboring nodes among neighboring nodes spatially neighboring the current node, and the current node is encoded with reference to a neighboring node within the range.

Abstract: A three-dimensional data encoding method of encoding three-dimensional points obtained by a sensor includes: encoding local coordinate information indicating sets of local coordinates that are coordinates of the three-dimensional points and are dependent on a location of the sensor; and generating an encoded bitstream including the local coordinate information encoded and global coordinate information indicating global coordinates that are coordinates of a reference point or at least one of the three-dimensional points and are independent from the location of the sensor.
