Abstract
Presented are systems and methods for wireless communication. In one aspect, a wireless communication device determines a first demodulation reference signal (DMRS) table according to first information from a wireless communication node. In one aspect, the wireless communication device receives a value of a field in a signaling from the wireless communication node. In one aspect, the wireless communication device determines a first DMRS parameter according to the first DMRS table and the value of the field. In one aspect, the first DMRS table includes a mapping between values of the field of the signaling and values of the first DMRS parameter.
