Abstract:
1. A method comprising: by a first computing device, combining N ACK/NACK responses respectively corresponding to N data transmissions received from a second computing device; encoding the combined N ACK/NACK responses, comprising: selecting one of one or more positions of a communication channel between the first computing device and the second computing device based on the combined N ACK/NACK responses, wherein the first computing device sends ACK/NACK transmissions to the second computing device over the communication channel, and each position of the communication channel corresponds to a frequency or time resource of the communication channel; and setting a value of each of one or more bits the first computing device sends to the second computing device during each ACK/NACK transmission based on the combined N ACK/NACK responses; and sending the one or more bits at the selected one of one or more positions over the communication channel to the second computing device; wherein:
