For example, it can be row/column of Hadamard matrix with 1 and - 1. Generally, this example may be formulated that the first communication device 100 generates the signal 510 based on multiplexing the sequence x with a cover code, and the cover code is a sequence comprising of 1 :s or determined by the plurality of information bits.

When detecting the QPSK sequence, multiplication is not needed because inner product with QPSK symbol sequence is equivalent to complex addition/subtraction.
  • Receiver signal combination If there are too many receiver antennas, i.e. N Rx Rx antennas, the receiver complexity will be very high because it is proportional to the number of receiver antennas. So, we can combine the received signal 510 before correlation operation, which may be after the combination of repetition, detection of cover code and/or detection of nonbinary sequence.

Abstract

L'invention concerne des séquences à faible PARR pour un système de communication, tel que 3GPP NR et LTE. Par conséquent, une solution est fournie pour générer des constellations, c'est-à-dire, l'ensemble de séquences C de séquences, avec un faible PAPR. Afin de générer une constellation de taille 2 N (c'est-à-dire, il y a 2N séquences dans l'ensemble de séquences C), on peut d'abord générer une constellation plus grande de taille K > 2 N , puis sélectionner 2 N symboles de modulation (c'est-à-dire des séquences) de cette constellation plus grande pour garantir une bonne performance de corrélation croisée maximale. En particulier, la sélection des 2 N symboles de modulation peut être basée sur une règle prédéfinie qui tient compte de la manière dont les séquences générées sont mappées sur des ressources temps-fréquence, par exemple un ou plusieurs symboles DFT-s-OFDM, de telle sorte que les symboles DFT-s-OFDM résultants générés par les 2 N symboles de modulation sélectionnés peuvent avoir un faible PAPR.
