Information transmission method, communications device, and network device
An information transmission method, a communications device, and a network device are provided. The information transmission method includes: receiving first downlink control information, wherein the first downlink control information comprises scheduling information used to transmit first data, and the format of the first downlink control information is DCI format 6-0B, the first downlink control information comprises indication information, and the indication information is used to indicate that the first data transmitted by the communications device is a first message 3 or a second message 3; and transmitting the first data based on the scheduling information and the indication information. The method and apparatus may be applied to a communications system such as a V2X communications system, an LTE-V communications system, a V2V communications system, an internet of vehicles communications system, an MTC communications system, an IoT communications system, an LTE-M communications system, or an M2M communications system.
PUCCH collision handling for multi-slot long PUCCH in 5G NR
A user equipment (UE) is described. The UE includes receiving circuitry configured to receive a first parameter. The receiving circuitry is also configured to receive a second parameter. The UE also includes transmitting circuitry configured to perform, based on the first parameter, the first PUCCH repetitions in first multiple slots. The transmitting circuitry is also configured to perform, based on the second parameter, the second PUCCH receptions in second multiple slot. For a case that the first PUCCH repetitions collide with the second PUCCH receptions, a priority for different types of uplink control information (UCI) is applied. Hybrid automatic repeat request-acknowledgment (HARQ-ACK) has a higher priority than a scheduling request (SR) and channel state information (CSI). The SR has a higher priority than the CSI.
Systems and methods for uplink transmission overlap resolution
This disclosure provides systems, methods, and devices for wireless communication that support resolution of uplink (UL) transmission overlap of communication types having different priorities. In some implementations, a method of wireless communication includes determining, at a user equipment (UE), that a first scheduled UL transmission corresponding to a first communication type having a first priority overlaps with a second scheduled UL transmission corresponding to a second communication type having a second priority. The first priority is higher than the second priority. The method also includes multiplexing at least a portion of the first scheduled UL transmission with at least a portion of the second scheduled UL transmission to generate a third UL transmission. The method further includes transmitting, from the UE to a base station, the third UL transmission. Other aspects and features are also claimed and described.
Method and apparatus for transmitting uplink control information
Embodiments of this application provide a method and an apparatus for transmitting channel state information (CSI). The CSI is a part of uplink control information (UCI) and it includes a first quantity of bits. The method includes: determining a threshold code rate according to a modulation and coding scheme (MCS) index when the CSI is to be transmitted on a physical uplink shared channel (PUSCH) without uplink data; determining a second quantity of bits according to the threshold code rate and the first quantity of bits, where the second quantity of bits is less than or equal to the first quantity of bits; and transmitting the second quantity of bits of the CSI on the PUSCH.
Methods and apparatus for dynamic acknowledgement list selection in detection of uplink control channel formats
Methods and apparatus for dynamic acknowledgement list selection in detection of uplink control channel formats. In an exemplary embodiment, an apparatus includes a dynamic acknowledgement (ACK) list allocation circuit that generates a dynamic ACK list that includes one or two most likely ACK candidates, and a top-Q candidate CQI bits detector that dynamically allocates a detection branch to each of the one or two most likely ACK candidates to detect top-Q candidate CQI bits. The apparatus also includes a merger circuit that mergers the top-Q candidate CQI bits detected for the one or two most likely ACK candidates to generate a merged list, a top-Q CQI symbol generator that generates top-Q CQI symbols for the top-Q candidate CQI bits detected for the one or two most likely ACK candidates, and a joint detector that detects transmitted CQI bits and ACK bits.
Front loaded CSI-RS based feedback
A method, a computer-readable medium, and an apparatus may involve wireless communication in a bundled TTI comprising a first TTI and a second TTI. A first UE may be configured to receive a first data transmission and a first reference signal from a second UE in the first TTI, to transmit a feedback to the second UE, and to receive a second data transmission having one or more transmission parameters adapted based on the feedback in the second TTI. In certain aspects, the first UE may be configured to transmit a first data transmission and a first reference signal to a second UE in the first TTI, to receive a feedback from the second UE, to adapt one or more transmission parameters for a second data transmission in the second TTI based on the feedback, and to transmit the second data transmission to the second UE in the second TTI.
Hybrid automatic repeat request feedback for outer loop adaptation for 5G or other next generation network
Intelligent hybrid automatic repeat request (HARQ) feedback can better support link adaption. Thus, in addition to the traditional HARQ feedback, which is to relay acknowledgement (ACK) and negative acknowledgement (NAK) data based on a decoding result, a new state for the HARQ feedback can be represented as “ACK+”. Consequently, ACK+ can be used to indicate to the network that a modulation and coding scheme (MCS) of a current data packet is too conservative, and the user equipment (UE) is capable of supporting a more aggressive MCS.
Identifying a hybrid automatic repeat request mode
Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. A communications device may receive a downlink control message that supports indicating multiple modes for reporting hybrid automatic repeat request feedback, including a first mode for reporting hybrid automatic repeat request feedback and channel information according to a bundled configuration and a second mode for reporting hybrid automatic repeat request feedback according to a standalone configuration. The communications device may use the downlink control message to determine a mode for transmitting hybrid automatic repeat request feedback. The communications device may also transmit either bundled hybrid automatic repeat request feedback and channel information or standalone hybrid automatic repeat request according to the determined mode.
Multi-slot transport block configurations
In some aspects, multi-slot transport block (TB) configurations for communicating data between wireless devices, such as between a base station and a user equipment (UE), in a wireless communication system are described. Some examples of multi-slot configurations enable the communication of large payloads. For example, an application of a wireless device may jointly process data from a large file or other large set of packets. In such examples, the wireless device transmitting the large file may utilize a multi-slot TB including multiple TB segments corresponding to respective slots of a transmission. Similarly, a wireless device receiving the large file may utilize the multi-slot TB configuration for receiving the data.
Hybrid resource mapping for RAR
Wireless communication devices, systems, and methods related to mechanisms to implement improved RAR decoding performance and resource utilization efficiency in a RACH procedure. A PDCCH with common search space encodes a DCI with configuration information that schedules separate PDSCHs for different UEs/UE groups. When sending a RAR message, the PDCCH includes a DCI with a configuration field to signal multiple DMRS resources with corresponding PDSCH. Each sub-field of the configuration field may include one or multiple bits. When one bit per sub-field, the bit is a flag that when asserted leads the UE to blind decode the PDSCH associated with that DMRS resource. When multiple bits, it includes a flag field as well as one or more bits that include least significant bits of a UE identifier (or group identifier). The UE locates its identifier (or group identifier), and limits decoding to that PDSCH with corresponding DMRS resource.
