Automatic Repeat Request (ARQ) protocol is used in many modern telecommunication systems for improved link level reliability. Hybrid ARQ (HARQ) protocol takes advantage of the retransmissions in ARQ to enable the receiver to decode the currently received data by combining it with all the previously received transmissions that were not successfully decoded. Each successive retransmission improves the probability of correctly decoding the data. To support HARQ, the receiver is required to store the previously received unsuccessful transmissions for combining with future retransmissions. The storage of the previously received unsuccessful transmissions can be very large depending on type of the HARQ protocol used. A method and apparatus are disclosed that enable reduced memory storage requirements while maintaining the HARQ performance requirements. The reduced memory requirements result in reduced cost, reduced power consumption and lowered cost.

This application provides a hybrid automatic repeat request HARQ codebook generation method and an apparatus. The method includes: A terminal device receives a first message from a network device, where the first message is for scheduling downlink data in a plurality of cells. The terminal device generates a HARQ codebook based on the first message. This application provides the HARQ codebook generation method for a case in which there are a plurality of scheduled cells. According to the foregoing method, transmission performance can be effectively ensured. For example, a transmission opportunity can be effectively increased, or a transmission error caused by poor channel quality can be effectively avoided, so that a flexible and variable service volume and/or communication requirement can be met.

Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. The following relates more specifically to hierarchical hybrid automatic repeat request (HARM) for multi-level coding with multi-level sequential demodulation and decoding and code block grouping per decoding level. A user equipment (UE) may receive, during a first time period, a transmission from a base station including a first and second code block group (CBG) with codeblocks associated with a first and second decoding level. The UE may fail to decode the first CBG, may not decode the second CBG, may store post processing samples for the second CBG, and may transmit a feedback message to the base station. The base station may retransmit the first CBG and new data on the second CBG in a second time period. The UE may decode the first CBG and use the post processing samples to decode the second CBG from the first time period.

The present invention relates to retransmissions In a communications system. A method and system of reducing uplink retransmission delay of a radio communications system by introducing an uplink MAC ARQ layer of Node B is disclosed. Further, a MAC PDU data indicator for soft combining control In Node B and RLC PDU reordering is introduced.

Embodiments of this application provide a data transmission method, a transmit device, and a receive device. The method includes: sending important data of a media data frame to a receive device in a HARQ transmission mode; and after the important data of the media data frame is successfully sent, sending unimportant data of the media data frame to the receive device in a non-HARQ transmission mode. Based on this solution, data of the media data frame is classified into the important data and the unimportant data, and the unimportant data is sent after the important data is successfully sent. In this way, on one hand, the important data is preferentially sent, and successful sending of the important data can be ensured in the HARQ transmission mode.

This document describes methods, devices, systems, and means for fifth generation new radio uplink multiplexing assisted by shared grant-free transmission. A user equipment (UE) inserts a first cyclical redundancy check (CRC) into a transport block (TB), encodes the TB, including the CRC, into a codeword (CW). Based on receiving a preemption indicator for part of a first physical resource, the UE selects a first part of the CW for rate matching with a length based on a received uplink (UL) grant and the received preemption indicator. The UE transmits the first part of the CW using the first physical resource, selects a second part of the CW, inserts a second CRC in the selected second part of the CW, and transmits the second part of the CW using a second physical resource.

In an indication information receiving method, a first terminal device receives first indication information from a first network device, and sends information about at least one HARQ process of the first terminal device to the first network device based on the first indication information, where the information about the at least one HARQ process includes a process number of a first HARQ process. The first terminal device receives first data from the first network device through the first HARQ process. This can improve reliability during data transmission.

Systems, methods, and instrumentalities are disclosed for receiver feedback in wireless systems. Receiver feedback format, content, type and/or timing may be determined as a function of, for example, at least one of a type of soft-combining processing to apply in a HARQ process, a HARQ operating point for the HARQ process, one or more reference transmissions for controlling a type of HARQ feedback for the HARQ process, and a feedback suppression parameter for one or more transmissions in a sequence associated with the HARQ process or a transport block (TB). Uniform and non-uniform CB-to-CBG mapping may be provided (e.g., by a WTRU) based on, for example, one or more parameters, interference and channel conditions and/or a probability of or actual pre-empting transmissions. A CB to CBG mapping indication may be provided, for example, in support of selecting a CB to CBG mapping from multiple CB to CBG mappings. Intra- and inter-WTRU interference/preemption indications may be provided.

The present invention discloses a data transmission method having data reuse mechanism that includes the steps outlined below. A driver corresponding to a communication circuit is operated as a transmission terminal to analyze under-transmitted data to generate reuse setting information, indication information and packets having a complete packet and incomplete packets so as to be transmitted by the transmission terminal through a transmission interface to be received by the communication circuit as a receiving terminal. The receiving terminal identifies the complete packet and the incomplete packets according to the indication information. A data location that a reusable data section corresponds to is determined according to the reuse information. The complete packet is outputted. A non-reusable data section of each of the incomplete packets and the reusable data section of the complete packet are reconstructed to output reconstructed packets according to the data location.
