Apparatuses, systems, and methods for a wireless device to disable a HARQ feedback in either a semi-static way or in a dynamic way and to perform HARQ optimization. The wireless device may be configured to receive a first set and a second set of HARQ process numbers, where the first set and the second set of HARQ process numbers correspond to a first set and a second set of HARQ processes respectively, where each HARQ process in the first set of HARQ processes is configured to enable a HARQ feedback, and where each HARQ process in the second set of HARQ processes is configured to disable or enable a HARQ feedback. The wireless device may be configured to receive a grant configuration or a SPS, where the grant configuration or the SPS include a flag indicating whether a HARQ-based retransmission is disabled.

A wireless device receives a downlink control information (DCI) comprising a first field indicating a transition of a cell to a dormant state and a second field indicating a hybrid automatic repeat request (HARQ) feedback timing. The wireless device transmits, in response to the DCI indicating the transition and via a physical uplink control channel resource, a positive acknowledgement of a reception of the DCI at a time interval based on the HARQ feedback timing.

Communication network architectures, systems, and methods supporting network coding of packet data in a network of moving things. Through the use of network coding, a network of moving things provides redundancy and improved network capacity and reliability.

A receiver for receiving data in a broadcast system includes a broadcast receiver configured to receive, via the broadcast system, a receiver input data stream including a plurality of channel symbols represented by constellation points in a constellation diagram. A demodulator demodulates the channel symbols into codewords and a decoder decodes the codewords into output data words. A redundancy unit selects or requests, if demodulation of a channel symbol and/or decoding of a codeword is erroneous or likely to fail, redundancy data for demodulation of future channel symbols and/or decoding of future codewords via a broadband system and a broadband receiver obtains the redundancy data via the broadband system. The demodulator and/or the decoder is configured to use the obtained redundancy data to demodulate the respective future channel symbols and to decode the respective future codewords, respectively.

A user equipment is configured with at least two collections of uplink resources to be used for transmitting control information to a communication network. The UE receives an assignment of radio resources to be used for receiving a downlink transmission from a base station of the communication network. The UE receives an acknowledgement resource indication, ARI, indicating one of the configured collections of uplink resources to be used for transmitting control information associated with the DL transmission. Further, the UE transmits the control information to the base station on at least a subset of the indicated collection of UL resources. In example embodiments, the indicated collection of uplink resources comprises a plurality of selectable uplink resource sets. The control information is transmitted on one of the uplink resource sets which corresponds to an operational state of the communication network.

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.

Methods and apparatuses are disclosed for communication resource configurations for dual connectivity. In one embodiment, a wireless device is configured to receive an indication of a first Uplink-Downlink, UL-DL, configuration; compare the first UL-DL configuration to a reference UL-DL configuration and determine whether a communication direction of at least one communication resource indicated in the first UL-DL configuration matches a communication direction of at least one corresponding communication resource indicated by the reference UL-DL configuration; and based on the comparison of the reference UL-DL configuration to the first UL-DL configuration, determine that the at least one communication resource is to be used for one of a Long Term Evolution, LTE, radio access network and a New Radio, NR, access network.

A method in which a first apparatus performs wireless communication and an apparatus supporting the same are provided. The method may include: receiving information related to a physical sidelink feedback channel (PSFCH) resource from a base station; receiving a physical sidelink shared channel (PSSCH) from a second apparatus; and transmitting a PSFCH related to the PSSCH to the second apparatus. Here, the information related to the PSFCH resource may include, for example, information related to a resource block (RB) available for the first apparatus to transmit the PSFCH.

The present disclosure provides a random access method and a terminal device. The method includes: reserving a first MAC PDU buffered in a HARQ buffer or buffering a second MAC PDU in a HARQ buffer if a random access procedure is successful, where the first MAC PDU is a PDU that is buffered in a Msg3 buffer in a contention random access procedure, the second MAC PDU is a PDU that includes at least data content of the first MAC PDU and is buffered in a target buffer, and the target buffer and the Msg3 buffer are different buffers.

A user equipment (UE) configured for multi-antenna communication estimates at least one of a rank indicator and a channel quality indicator for device to device (D2D) based on communication data associated with a plurality of packets communicated using D2D communication and without using a dedicated reference signal for D2D communication. The UE may be configured as at least one of a transmitter (Tx) and a receiver (Rx) for vehicle-to-everything (V2X) communication through a sidelink channel.
