The present invention provides a hybrid automatic repeat request management method, an apparatus, and a system. The method includes: determining, by a first network node according to at least one of a first correspondence between a carrier set and a hybrid automatic repeat request HARQ process or a second correspondence between the carrier set and a HARQ entity, a HARQ process and/or a HARQ entity corresponding to the carrier set, where the carrier set includes at least one of: at least one uplink UL carrier set or at least one downlink DL carrier set; and receiving and/or sending, by the first network node, data and/or signaling according to the HARQ process and/or the HARQ entity by using the carrier set.

A method for a wireless communications system is disclosed. In one example, user equipment (UE) maintains at least one serving beam, and uses a serving beam to perform an uplink (UL) transmission of data. The data is stored in an uplink hybrid automatic repeat request (UL HARQ) buffer. When there is a failure to track the serving beam, a beam recovery procedure is initialized. After successful completion of the beam recovery procedure, the UE retransmits the data stored in the UL HARQ buffer. The UE prevents the data from being flushed from the UL HARQ buffer when the failure to track the serving beam occurs, so that the data can be retransmitted.

Disclosed is a base station in which the frequency usage efficiency can be improved when the communication bandwidths are asymmetric in the uplink line and the downlink line. A base station can communicate by using a plurality of downlink unit bands and a smaller number of uplink unit bands. A control unit allocates uplink resource allocation information and downlink resource allocation information to a PDCCH which is arranged in each of the plurality of downlink unit bands, and allocates a response signal to the uplink line data to a PHICH which is arranged in the same number of downlink unit bands from the plurality of downlink unit bands as there are uplink unit bands. A transmit RF unit transmits the resource allocation information or the response signal.

The present invention relates to a wireless communication system. More specifically, the present invention relates to a method for carrying out HARQ action from a terminal operating in one of a plurality of link types, and to an apparatus for same, the method comprising the steps of: a first subframe (SF) receiving scheduling information; a second SF receiving data according to the scheduling information; and a third SF transmitting response information with respect to the data, wherein the first SF, the second SF, and the third SE correspond to a single HARQ process, a SF set which corresponds to the single HARQ process in a first link type comprises a plurality of SF subsets, and wherein each of the SF subsets corresponds to a single HARQ process in a second link type.

A method for performing a hybrid automatic repeat request (HARQ) process, the method performed by a user equipment (UE) and includes receiving data in a first subframe of a secondary cell; and transmitting acknowledgement/negative-acknowledgement (ACK/NACK) information for the data in a second subframe of a primary cell, wherein the primary cell uses a frame comprising at least one downlink subframe and at least one uplink subframe according to an uplink-downlink configuration, wherein the secondary cell uses a frame comprising consecutive downlink subframes, and wherein a maximum number of HARQ processes for the secondary cell is dependent on the uplink-downlink configuration of the primary cell.

More specifically, the present invention relates to a method and a device for transmitting multiplexed HARQ feedbacks in a carrier aggregation system, the method comprising: configuring a first Physical Uplink Control Channel (PUCCH) group and a second PUCCH group, sources in each of the first PUCCH group and the second PUCCH group; generating a first Hybrid-ARQ (HARQ) feedback by multiplexing HARQ feedbacks of all HARQ processes of all cells belonging to the first PUCCH group; generating a second HARQ feedback by multiplexing HARQ feedbacks of all HARQ processes of all cells belonging to the second PUCCH group; selecting a first cell among the at least two cells with PUCCH resources in the first PUCCH group; selecting a second cell among the at least two cells with PUCCH resources in the second PUCCH group; and transmitting the first HARQ feedback on the first cell and the second HARQ feedback on the second cell.

Techniques and apparatus for using downlink control information (DCI) to avoid hybrid automatic repeat request (HARQ) process identifier (ID) conflicts in scenarios where multiple semi persistently scheduled (SPS) configurations share the same pool of HARQ process IDs are provided. One example technique involves a user equipment (UE) receiving an indication of a plurality of SPS configurations, each SPS configuration allocating the UE with a set of SPS occasions for physical downlink shared channel (PDSCH) transmissions. Information for resolving a conflict between a first HARQ process ID associated with a first SPS occasion of a first of the plurality of SPS configurations and a second HARQ process ID associated with a second SPS occasion of a second of the plurality of SPS configurations is received. The first SPS occasion occurs prior to the second SPS occasion. The conflict is resolved based on the information.

A method includes receiving a first assignment for a first transmission with a first hybrid automatic repeat request (HARQ) process identifier (process ID) in a first network resource, receiving a second assignment for a second transmission with a second HARQ process ID in a second network resource, wherein the first network resource and the second network resource differ in a domain other than a time domain, detecting an indication indicating that the first HARQ process ID and the second HARQ process ID map to a same transmission block (TB), and communicating with an access node, a transmission associated with at least one of the first HARQ process ID or the second HARQ process ID.

There is disclosed a method of operating a receiving radio node in a wireless communication network. The method includes communicating utilising data signaling based on a received control information message, the control information message scheduling multiple occurrences of data signaling, wherein communicating is based on extracting a code block group (CBG) setup for communicating based on the received control information message and/or a CBG configuration. The disclosure also pertains to related devices and methods.

For multiplexing control information in a physical uplink data channel, a user equipment (UE) includes receiving a configuration for a first set of values and receiving a downlink control information (DCI) format scheduling a transmission of a physical uplink shared data channel (PUSCH) over a set of resource elements (REs) and including a field providing an index. The method further includes determining a first value from the first set of values based on the index, determining a first subset of REs from the set of REs, for multiplexing first uplink control information (UCI), based on the first value, and transmitting the first UCI in the PUSCH.
