METHODS, APPARATUSES, AND COMPUTER PROGRAM PRODUCTS FOR GENERATING FRACTIONAL GUARD PERIODS

摘要

A method, system, and computer program product is provided for transmitting output symbols in sub-slots that each have a pre-determined length. A UE generates a first output symbol having a first symbol length, and transmits the first output symbol with a guard period having a guard period length. During the guard period, no transmission is made by the UE. The sum of the first symbol length and the guard period length is less than or equal to the predetermined length. Further, the UE generates a plurality of other output symbols that each have the predetermined length. Then, immediately following the transmission of the first output symbol, the UE transmits the plurality of other output symbols.

1. A method of transmitting output symbols in sub-slots, each of the sub-slots having a predetermined length, the method comprising:
generating, by a user equipment (UE) a first output symbol having a first symbol length that is shorter than the predetermined length; transmitting, by the UE, the first output symbol with a guard period having a guard period length, wherein a sum of the first symbol length and the guard period length is less than or equal to the predetermined length, and wherein no transmission is made by the UE during the guard period; generating, by the UE, a plurality of other output symbols that each have the predetermined length; and immediately following the transmission of the first output symbol, transmitting, by the UE, the plurality of other output symbols.
