Position of uplink short burst in new radio

Various aspects of the present disclosure provides methods and techniques for flexible positioning of a uplink short burst in NR communications. In one example, the uplink short burst may have a slot position that at any position of the uplink centric slot. For instance, a downlink centric slot may contain control signals from a base station, such as a grant, that indicate the slot position of the uplink short burst. The grant may indicate, explicitly or implicitly, the position within an uplink centric slot that should be assigned to an uplink short burst. The UE may then transmit a response including an uplink short burst within the indicated slot position of an uplink centric slot. The various aspects may thus enable the dynamic assignment of uplink short bursts within uplink centric slots.

DYNAMIC CONFIGURATION OF UPLINK (UL) AND DOWNLINK (DL) FRAME RESOURCES FOR A TIME DIVISION DUPLEX (TDD) TRANSMISSION

Technology for a user equipment (UE) operable to perform adaptive time division duplexing (TDD) hybrid automatic repeat request (HARQ)-ACKnowledgement (ACK) reporting is described. The UE can implement an adaptive uplink-downlink (UL-DL) configuration received from an eNodeB. The UE can decode a downlink (DL) HARQ reference configuration received from the base station for a serving cell, wherein the DL HARQ reference configuration is for the implemented adaptive UL-DL configuration. The UE can decode a reference UL-DL configuration received from the base station via a system information block (SIB). The UE can encode HARQ-ACK feedback for transmission on an uplink channel of the serving cell in accordance with the DL HARQ reference configuration. The UE can perform uplink scheduling and the HARQ-ACK feedback based on the reference UL-DL configuration received from the base station via the SIB.
