Quantized K-resource element row-column interleaver

A method for wireless communications in a wireless network via a radio access technology, comprising:

• receiving modulated symbols in the wireless network via the radio access technology;
• determining dimensions of a matrix used for performing de-interleaving of the modulated symbols carrying bits, from a plurality of code blocks, which are mapped into bundles of resource elements, in an orthogonal frequency division multiplexed (OFDM) system, based, at least in part, on one of a ratio of a code block size to a number of bits mapped into each resource element or the number of bits mapped into each resource element, wherein determining the dimensions of the matrix comprises:
• determining a number of rows of the matrix based, at least in part, on the one of the ratio of the code block size to the number of bits modulated in each resource element, or the number of bits modulated in each resource element;
• and
• determining a number of columns of the matrix based on the number of rows and a total number of bundles of resource elements;
• and
• performing the de-interleaving of the modulated symbols according to the matrix having the determined dimensions.
