    摘要: Methods and apparatuses are described for cooperation of two or more devices to improve the transmissions over a Uu interface. A source receives or transmits an indicator indicating a first mode of two modes of cooperation between the source apparatus and at least a first cooperating device. The two modes of cooperation includes a joint communication mode and a relay mode of cooperation. If the first mode is the joint communication mode, at least a portion of the data, intended for the intended recipient, is transmitted to at least the first cooperating device to be further transmitted by the first cooperating device to the intended recipient. A same or different portion of the data is transmitted to the intended recipient or to a second cooperating device to be further transmitted by the second cooperating device to the intended recipient.

    摘要: A system and method includes implementing, by a base station (BS), a reliable ultra-low latency transmission mechanism in a grant-free uplink transmission scheme having defined therein contention transmission unit (CTU) access regions and a plurality of CTUs. Implementing the reliable ultra-low latency transmission mechanism includes defining a reliable ultra-low latency CTU (RULL-CTU) access region from a portion of the CTU access regions of the grant-free transmission scheme, defining an RULL-CTU mapping scheme by mapping at least a portion of plurality of CTUs to the RULL-CTU access region to define a plurality of RULL-CTUs, defining a reliable ultra-low latency user equipment (RULL-UE) mapping scheme by defining rules for mapping a plurality of RULL-UEs to the plurality of RULL-CTUs in an initial pattern for initial transmissions in a first transmission time interval (TTI), and a regrouped pattern for redundant transmissions in a second TTI subsequent to the first TTI.
