MUMBAI, India, March 14 -- Intellectual Property India has published a patent application (202617011014 A) filed by Qualcomm Incorporated, San Diego, on Feb. 2, for 'transport block size calculation for orthogonal cover coding and sub-physical resource-block allocation for physical uplink shared channel.'
Inventor(s) include Ma, Liangping; Wang, Xiao Feng; Rico Alvarino, Alberto; and Sengupta, Ayan.
The application for the patent was published on March 13, under issue no. 11/2026.
According to the abstract released by the Intellectual Property India: "Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. A user equipment (UE) may account for the application of orthogonal cover coding (OCC) to an uplink transmission when determining the transport block size (TBS) for the uplink transmission. OCC may be used to multiplex transmissions from multiple UEs and may involve spreading information. Described techniques may involve accounting for the spreading of information bits when determining the TBS for the uplink transmission to which OCC is applied. Sub-physical resource block (sub- PRB) frequency allocations may be provided for uplink transmissions. The UE may account for the allocated quantity of sub-carriers when determining the quantity of information bits. To indicate a sub-PRB, the UE may be configured to reinterpret one or more fields of an existing downlink control information (DCI) format as indicating the allocated sub-carriers, or a new DCI format may be configured that includes fields for indicating a sub-PRB allocation."
The patent application was internationally filed on Aug. 26, 2024, under International application No.PCT/US2024/043901.
