Abstract:
1. A method for wireless communication via a single carrier frequency division multiplexing (SC-FDM) waveform, comprising: multiplexing one or more reference symbols and one or more data-conveying modulation symbols in a time domain to generate a plurality of modulation symbols in a frequency domain and obtain a single SC-FDM symbol comprising at least one reference symbol and at least one data-conveying modulation symbol, wherein the one or more reference symbols are associated with a reference signal and the at least one reference symbol in the SC-FDM symbol comprises a demodulation reference symbol for demodulating the at least one data-conveying modulation symbol in the single symbol; and transmitting the single SC-FDM symbol within an SC-FDM symbol period in an uplink transmission slot.
