    Abstract: Aspects of the disclosure provide a slot structure (e.g., the arrangement of channels and pilot signals within a slot) that can relax the processing timeline for a wireless communication device. For example, in the first or initial symbol of a slot, control information may be frequency division multiplexed (FDM) with a demodulation reference signal (DMRS) or with user data. In some cases, delayed-processing data may be sampled, and the samples may be buffered at the receiving device, for processing later, after control information needed to process the data has been received and processed. Further aspects provide for payload pre-tapering. That is, when a device delays the processing of data bits, this can cause a processing bottleneck after that buffering delay. By virtue of various pre-tapering techniques described herein, the processing load needed to process the delayed-processing data can be reduced. Other aspects, embodiments, and features are also claimed and described.

    Abstract: The disclosure relates in some aspects to multiplexing different types of traffic. Techniques are disclosed to facilitate puncturing one type of traffic with another type of traffic (e.g., traffic having more stringent latency and/or reliability requirements). In some aspects, these techniques mitigate potential loss of control information for the punctured traffic. In some aspects, the disclosed techniques are applicable to mobile broadband traffic and mission critical traffic.

    Abstract: A method for obtaining structural information from a digital image by an electronic device is described. The method includes obtaining a digital image. The method also includes determining a gradient vector for each pixel in a region of interest of the digital image. The method further includes transforming each pixel in the region of interest in accordance with a transform. Transforming each pixel includes determining, for each pixel, a first set of pixels. The first set of pixels includes any pixel along a line that is collinear with or perpendicular to the gradient vector and passes through a pixel location. Transforming each pixel includes incrementing with signed integer values, for each pixel, a first set of values in a transform space corresponding to any of the first set of pixels that are in a first direction of the line.

    Abstract: A wireless device may decode a polar coded codeword using a successive cancellation list (SCL) decoder. The decoder may implement a distributed feedback architecture, where the decoder stores one or more state maps and a set of bit arrays in memory for each layer of decoding. For different phases of decoding in a layer, the decoder may update the state maps and sets of bit arrays to limit the resources used. Additionally, when performing bit updating following the decoding of a bit of the codeword, the decoder may not update each layer of the decoding process. Instead, each sub-decoder may send a state map up to the calling layer for bit updating when the sub-decoder has completed its invocation, and may not return any intermediate state maps prior to completing invocation. Thus, each decoder and sub-decoder may perform bit updating just twice, reducing the complexity and latency of decoding.

    Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communication are described a search space configuration. A set of physical resource blocks (PRBs) or resource element groups (REGs) may be configured over two or more modulation symbols. A control channel element (CCE), or fixed set of REGs, may be formed using REGs in one modulation symbol. A search space, or set of decoding candidates, may be configured for one user equipment (UE) or multiple UEs. Search spaces for different UEs may share some CCEs. A decoding candidate for a UE may occupy a set of CCEs; the UE may make decoding to attempts on the set of CCEs. A base station may transmit in a subset of decoding candidates configured for the UE. A demodulation reference signal (DMRS) may be transmitted when a decoding candidate is used, and DMRS may not be transmitted when a decoding candidate is not used.

    Abstract: Decoding and encoding methods, systems, and devices for wireless communication are described. One method may include receiving a codeword over a wireless channel, the codeword being encoded using a polar code, identifying a set of repeated bit locations in the received codeword, and identifying a set of bit locations of the polar code used for information bits for the encoding. The set of bit locations may be determined based at least in part on recursively partitioning bit-channels of the polar code for each stage of polarization and assigning portions of a number of the information bits to bit-channel partitions of each stage of polarization based on a mutual information transfer function of respective aggregate capacities of the bit-channel partitions. The method may also include decoding the received codeword according to the polar code to obtain an information bit vector at the set of bit locations, and other aspects and features.
