Method and apparatus for out-of-order hybrid automatic repeat request feedback in mobile communications

Various solutions for supporting out-of-order hybrid automatic repeat request (HARQ) feedback with respect to user equipment and network apparatus in mobile communications are described. An apparatus may construct a first HARQ-ACK codebook corresponding to a first physical downlink shared channel (PDSCH) and construct a second HARQ-ACK codebook corresponding to a second PDSCH received later than the first PDSCH. The apparatus may activating an out-of-order HARQ transmission to transmit the first HARQ-ACK codebook and the second HARQ-ACK codebook in an event that the priorities associated with the codebooks are different.

Method and apparatus for supporting fully-distributed time-sensitive networking in mobile communication system

A method and an apparatus for supporting TSN in a wireless communication network are disclosed. The method for supporting fully-distributed time-sensitive networking (TSN) by a user plane function in a mobile communication system includes receiving a first status frame through a user equipment (UE) connected to a first TSN node, the first status frame including at least one of information about the first TSN node, information about a second TSN node for transmitting a data frame, stream information for transmitting data, and accumulated latency information; transmitting an update request for service quality (QoS) setup to a TSN application function (TSN AF) through a PDU session update procedure for the UE based on the received first status frame; and updating the first status frame upon receiving QoS setup information from the TSN AF, wherein the QoS setup information may include at least one of accumulated latency designated by the TSN AF, the status of the first TSN node, and the status of the second TSN node.

Enhanced listen-before-talk
11706805 · 2023-07-18 · ·

An enhanced LBT procedure (200) mitigates unnecessary delays in delivering transmissions between User Equipment and base stations over unlicensed spectrum. A UE or base station selects a particular CAPC corresponding to an intended transmission (225) based on an intelligent mapping of different types of transmission payload (e.g., transmission payload other than or in in addition to pre-defined, QoS-related UP message data payload) to different CAPCs. Most (if not all) of the mapped CAPCs corresponding to the different types of transmission payload are of a higher priority than a lowest priority CAPC (212-222), resulting in channel access procedures that are more commensurate with respective transmission payloads. The intelligent mapping may indicate different priorities among different types of transmission payload and/or different types of messages, and/or may indicate which type of transmission is to govern selection of a CAPC when multiple types of transmission payload are included in a single, intended transmission.

Power control of sidelink operation

A wireless device receives one or more messages. The one or more messages comprise a sidelink priority for a sidelink transmission via a sidelink resource pool; a first priority threshold for the sidelink resource pool; and a second priority threshold for the sidelink resource pool. The sidelink transmission overlapping with a configured uplink transmission is transmitted based on comparing the sidelink priority with: the first priority threshold in response to the configured uplink transmission being a first priority class; and the second priority threshold in response to the configured uplink transmission being a second priority class.

Configuring unicast and broadcast communications for different radio access technologies

The disclosure relates to methods, devices, and systems for wireless communications. A wireless communications system may support unicast and broadcast communications for different radio access technologies (RATs). To support the coexistence of different RATs, a user equipment (UE) may report, to a base station, a UE capability message containing a band combination including one or more bands for a first RAT (for example, New Radio (NR)) and one or more bands for a second RAT (for example, Long Term Evolution (LTE)) and an indication of a baseband budget for the second RAT for the band combination. In some implementations, the UE may transmit a broadcast interest indicator to the base station requesting a broadcast service. The base station may configure the UE with a carrier aggregation (CA) configuration based on the UE capabilities, such as the band combination and corresponding baseband budget for the second RAT, and the interest indicator.
