Abstract: A method of reducing peak to average power ratio of uplink transmission includes, assigning a slice of transmission resource to uplink transmission from a user equipment, where all resource elements in the slice have a same Doppler value, mapping data to the slice, performing orthogonal time frequency space transformation to generate time-frequency domain data and processing the time-frequency domain data for transmission.

Abstract: A method for performing downlink transmissions from a transmitting device to multiple user devices using transmission resources from a multi-dimensional grid of resources is described. The method includes logically partitioning the transmission resources into multiple segments, assigning, to a given user device of the multiple user devices, transmission resources of one or more of the multiple segments, and performing, using at least some of the assigned transmission resources for the given user device, a downlink transmission using an orthogonal time frequency space (OTFS) transformation on data or signals to be transmitted to the given user device.

Abstract: A communication device includes a communication port including network interface circuitry; and a processor, and a non-transitory storage medium configured to store program instructions which, when executed by the processor cause the communication device to perform a network operation comprising: entering into a listening phase; and searching for and attempting to acquire a network.

As a non-limiting example, various aspects of the present disclosure provide systems and methods for adding a new node to an existing network without requiring on-site manual configuration, for example utilizing communication between the new node and a network coordinator of the existing network prior to admission of the new node to the existing network.

Abstract: Systems and methods for securing a network, for admitting new nodes into an existing network, and/or securely forming a new network. As a non-limiting example, an existing node may be triggered by a user, in response to which the existing node communicates with a network controller node. Thereafter, if a new node attempts to enter the network, and also for example has been triggered by a user, the network controller may determine, based at least in part on parameters within the new node and the network controller, whether the new node can enter the network.

Abstract: Techniques for performing channel estimation in an orthogonal time, frequency and space (OTFS) communication system include receiving a wireless signal comprising a data signal portion and a pilot signal portion in which the pilot signal portion includes multiple pilot signals multiplexed together in the OTFS domain, performing two-dimensional channel estimation in a time-frequency domain based on a minimum mean square error (MMSE) optimization criterion, and recovering information bits using a channel estimate obtained from the two-dimensional channel estimation.
