There is provided a method, in a wireless device, for communicating with a network node using autonomous Uplink (UL) access. The method comprises: after sending a data transmission to a network node, starting a retransmission window associated with a feedback process of the data transmission, the retransmission window including a first timer; and in response to detecting an absence of a feedback signal during a time period given by the first timer, retransmitting the data after expiry of the first timer.

Disclosed is a geo-networking transmission method of a V2X communication apparatus. The geo-networking transmission method according to an embodiment of the present disclosure includes receiving a geo-networking packet; identifying whether the received geo-networking packet is a packet which is prestored in a buffer; determining whether to perform a forwarding progress of the geo-networking packet, when the received geo-networking packet is not a prestored packet; storing the received geo-networking packet in the buffer and starting a timer, when the forwarding progress is determined; and transmitting the geo-networking packet, when the timer expires.

Provided are systems and methods for reliable, out-of-order receipt of packets. In some implementations, provided is an apparatus configured to communicate with a network and a host device. The apparatus may receive packets over the network at a receive queue. The packets may originate from a source on the network, and may be received out of order. The apparatus may further, for each received packet, identify a transport context associated with the source and a destination of the packet, and determine whether the packet can be accepted. Upon determining that the packet can be accepted, the apparatus may further identify the one receive queue at which the packet was received; determine a user application to receive the packet, transfer the packet from the one receive queue to a buffer in host memory, and identify an order in which the packet was received with respect to other packets.

A method for uplink transmission performed by a UE is provided. The method includes: receiving a first configured grant configuration that allocates a first PUSCH duration; receiving a second configured grant configuration that allocates a second PUSCH duration, wherein the second PUSCH duration overlaps with the first PUSCH duration; obtaining a first HARQ process ID for the first PUSCH duration, then determining whether a first configured grant timer associated with the first HARQ process ID is running; obtaining a second HARQ process ID for the second PUSCH duration, then determining whether a second configured grant timer associated with the second HARQ process ID is running; and selecting one of the first PUSCH duration and the second PUSCH duration for an uplink transmission based on whether the first configured grant timer is running and whether the second configured grant timer is running.

A method and apparatus for discontinuous reception for a shortened transmission time interval and processing time includes a device monitoring for data transmission scheduling assignments during an active time of a DRX cycle, and detecting a transmission during the active time. The method further includes the device starting a first timer, in response to the detecting, wherein the first timer is set for a first timer value that specifies an amount of time between detecting the transmission and starting a second timer that extends the active time by a second timer value. The first timer value is determined based on one or both of a selected first TTI length from multiple TTI lengths for which the device can be enabled and/or a selected shorter first processing time over a second processing time associated with a TTI length used by the device.

A method of configuring downlink timings and transmitting a random access response message is provided for a random access procedure in a Long Term Evolution (LTE) system supporting carrier aggregation. The method for adjusting timing of a terminal in a wireless communication system supporting carrier aggregation of at least one carrier includes transmitting a Random Access Preamble to a base station, and receiving a Random Access Response with a Timing Advance Command (TAC) for commanding uplink timing adjustment from the base station, wherein the Random Access Response comprises information indicating a Timing Advance Group (TAG) to which the TAC is applied.

A method and apparatus for discontinuous reception for a shortened transmission time interval and processing time includes a device receiving, from a network, an indication to enable a first TTI which is a shorter TTI than a second TTI for which the device can be enabled. The method further includes the device switching from monitoring for data transmission scheduling assignments under the control of a DRX configuration associated with the second transmission time interval to monitoring for the data transmission scheduling assignments based on the first transmission time interval.

A voice data transmission method performed by at least one processor, includes placing multiple voice data frames in a target sending queue, sequentially sending the multiple voice data frames to a data receiving party, and identifying one or more important voice frames among the multiple voice data frames placed in the target sending queue. The method further includes placing the one or more important voice frames that are identified, in a retransmission processing queue, and for the multiple voice data frames that are sent, performing retransmission processing on only the one or more important voice frames placed in the retransmission processing queue.

Aspects of the disclosure provide an apparatus for wireless communication. The apparatus includes a transceiver and a processing circuit. The transceiver is configured to transmit and receive wireless signals. The processing circuit is configured to detect an error of a previous scheduled transmission of data units from the apparatus to another apparatus. The other apparatus provides scheduled resources for transmission between the two apparatuses. Further, the processing circuit is configured to determine resources that are scheduled by the other apparatus for the apparatus to perform retransmission, and provide one or more of the data units in the previous scheduled transmission to the transceiver for retransmission using the scheduled resources.

A method, an apparatus, and a processor-readable storage medium for wireless communication are provided. A transmitter transmits data packets to a receiver, encodes the data packets to generate parity packets, stores the parity packets in a retransmission buffer, receives information from the receiver indicating that a data packet was not correctly decoded, and transmits to the receiver the parity packets stored in the retransmission buffer for recovering the data packet not correctly decoded without retransmitting the data packet not correctly decoded. The transmitter may further retransmit to the receiver the parity packets. The transmitted data packets may be encoded at a medium access control (MAC) layer of the transmitter. The retransmission buffer may be located at a radio link control (RLC) layer or a packet data convergence protocol (PDCP) layer of the transmitter. A reordering buffer at the receiver may be located at the RLC layer or PDCP layer.
