INDICATING A NUMBER OF EMPTY TRANSMISSION OCCASIONS OF A GROUP OF SEMI-PERSISTENT TRANSMISSION OCCASIONS - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 17528964 titled 'INDICATING A NUMBER OF EMPTY TRANSMISSION OCCASIONS OF A GROUP OF SEMI-PERSISTENT TRANSMISSION OCCASIONS

Simplified Explanation

The abstract describes a method for wireless communication by a User Equipment (UE) device. Here is a simplified explanation of the abstract:

  • The UE device receives information from a base station, which includes a schedule for transmitting data and a quantity of empty data transmission occasions.
  • The data transmission occasions consist of both empty occasions and occasions with actual data.
  • The UE device receives downlink data transmissions from the base station according to the provided schedule.
  • The UE device then sends a feedback message to the base station, indicating the number of negative acknowledgments (NACKs) associated with either the empty occasions or the occasions with data.
  • The decision on which group of NACKs to report is based on the total number of NACKs being greater than the quantity of empty occasions received.

Potential applications of this technology:

  • This method can be applied in wireless communication systems, such as cellular networks, to improve the efficiency of data transmission between the base station and the UE device.
  • It can be used in various wireless devices, including smartphones, tablets, and IoT devices, to enhance the reliability and performance of wireless communication.

Problems solved by this technology:

  • The method addresses the challenge of efficiently utilizing available resources for data transmission in wireless communication systems.
  • It helps in managing and optimizing the transmission of data in scenarios where there are both empty and non-empty data transmission occasions.

Benefits of this technology:

  • By providing a semi-persistent schedule and considering the quantity of empty occasions, the method improves the overall efficiency of data transmission.
  • The feedback mechanism allows the base station to adapt its transmission strategy based on the reported NACKs, leading to better performance and reliability in wireless communication.


Original Abstract Submitted

A method for wireless communication by a UE includes receiving, from a base station, DCI indicating both a semi-persistent schedule for PDSCH occasions within a transmission window and a first quantity of a first group of empty PDSCH occasions. The PDSCH occasions may include the first group of empty PDSCH occasions and a second group of non-empty PDSCH occasions. The method also includes receiving, from the base station, downlink data transmissions within the transmission window based on the semi-persistent schedule. The method further includes transmitting, to the base station, a feedback message indicating a second quantity of either a first group of NACKs associated with the first group of empty PDSCH occasions or a second group of NACKs associated with the second group of non-empty PDSCH occasions based on a total quantity of both the first group of NACKs and the second group of NACKs being greater than the first quantity.
