GRANT-FREE DOWNLINK TRANSMISSION - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 17930836 titled 'GRANT-FREE DOWNLINK TRANSMISSION
Simplified Explanation
Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described in this patent application. The focus is on supporting downlink transmissions, where a user equipment (UE) receives a resource configuration for receiving a downlink transmission within a repetition window. The resource configuration includes an indicator of the repetition window size for the downlink transmission. The UE then monitors one or more transmission time intervals (TTIs) of the repetition window based on the resource configuration to receive the downlink transmission. In some cases, the downlink transmission may be a grant-free downlink transmission. The UE attempts to decode the grant-free downlink transmission during the TTIs, taking into account the repetition window size. This technique allows the UE to efficiently determine decoding parameters for the grant-free downlink transmission, leading to benefits such as reduced latency and power consumption.

Original Abstract Submitted
Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. The described techniques generally support downlink transmissions. For example, a user equipment (UE) may receive a resource configuration for reception of a downlink transmission within a repetition window, the resource configuration including an indicator of a repetition window size for the downlink transmission. The UE may monitor, according to the resource configuration, one or more transmission time intervals (TTIs) of the repetition window for reception of the downlink transmission. In some cases, the downlink transmission may be a grant-free downlink transmission. Here, the UE may attempt to decode the grant-free downlink transmission during the one or more TTIs based at least in part on the repetition window size. Using the described techniques, the UE may efficiently determine one or more decoding parameters for the grant-free downlink transmission, thereby providing benefits in terms of latency reduction, power consumption, etc.
