Abstract
Aspects of the disclosure relate to wirelessly communicating information by embedding that information in a demodulation reference signal (DMRS) sequence. In some examples disclosed herein, a DMRS sequence may be configured to communicate uplink control information (UCI) in an uplink (UL) communication. Other aspects, configurations, and features are also claimed and described.
Claims20
A method for combining control information with a payload in a wireless communication, comprising:
- determining a first bit size of a first control information;
- determining a second bit size of the payload;
- comparing the first bit size with the second bit size to determine whether a threshold condition is satisfied;
- and
- combining the first control information with the payload if the threshold condition is satisfied, wherein the payload comprises one of more of a second control information and message data.
An apparatus for combining control information with a payload in a wireless communication, comprising:
- a transceiver;
- a memory;
- and
- at least one processor communicatively coupled to the transceiver and the memory, wherein the at least one processor and the memory and configured to:
- determine a first bit size of a first control information,
- determine a second bit size of the payload,
- compare the first bit size with the second bit size to determine whether a threshold condition is satisfied, and
- combine the first control information with the payload if the threshold condition is satisfied, wherein the payload comprises one or more of a second control information and message data.
An apparatus for combining control information with a payload in a wireless communication, comprising:
- means for determining a first bit size of a first control information;
- means for determining a second bit size of the payload;
- means for comparing the first bit size with the second bit size to determine whether a threshold condition is satisfied;
- and
- means for combining the first control information with the payload when the threshold condition is satisfied, wherein the payload comprises one of more of a second control information and message data.
