摘要: Systems and methods are disclosed for performing combined grant-free and grant-based UL resource allocation. In a particular embodiment, a network entity sends a first type of UL transmission resource assignment selected from two types of UL transmission resource assignment mechanisms to a UE for grant-free transmission and a second type of UL transmission resource assignment from two types of UL transmission resource assignment mechanism to a UE for grant based transmission. The network entity then receives a first data transmission from the UE for grant free transmission using an assigned transmission resource and a second data transmission from the UE for grant based transmission using an assigned transmission resources. Other embodiments pertain to changing the resource allocation scheme from grant free to grant based for a UE, or vice versa. Examples reasons for doing so may include HARQ re-transmissions.

摘要: Methods and systems are provided for signaling for semi-static configuration in grant free uplink transmissions. Radio resource control (RRC) signaling is used to provide information from a base station to a user equipment (UE) that configure the grant free transmission resource to be used by the UE. In some implementations, the RRC signaling may be used in conjunction with system information that is transmitted to all UEs and/or Downlink Control Information (DCI) that the UE needs to access subsequent to the RRC signaling. In some implementations, the DCI includes an activation or deactivation indicator that the UE monitors to determine when the UE is allowed to transmit to the BS or should stop transmitting. Implementations allow for grant free transmission resources to be configured on an individual user based and a group basis.

摘要: There may be situations in which it is beneficial for a user equipment to switch between grant-free uplink wireless transmissions and grant-based uplink wireless transmissions. Systems and methods are disclosed that help facilitate grant-based and grant-free uplink wireless communications, and the switching between the two. For example, systems and methods for mitigating collision between a granted uplink wireless transmission and a grant-free uplink wireless transmission are disclosed herein.

摘要: In a wireless communication system, a grant-free uplink transmission is an uplink transmission sent from a user equipment (UE) to a base station that does not need a dynamic and explicit scheduling grant from the base station. Systems and methods are disclosed for performing hybrid automatic repeat request (HARQ) for grant-free uplink transmissions. Signaling relating to the ACK/NACK for the HARQ, as well as signaling relating to configuring the UE for grant-free uplink transmission, is also disclosed.

摘要: A user equipment in a wireless communication system may operate in different states, e.g. an idle state, an active/connected state, or an inactive state. Depending upon the state the UE is in, the UE may or may not have its uplink transmission synchronized with the uplink transmissions of other UEs. Mechanisms are disclosed for the UE to send a grant-free uplink transmission, even when the UE does not have its uplink transmission synchronized with the uplink transmissions from other UEs.
