SKIP HARQ FEEDBACK FOR SPS PDSCH - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18013871 titled 'SKIP HARQ FEEDBACK FOR SPS PDSCH
Simplified Explanation
The abstract of the patent application describes methods, computer programs, and apparatuses for reactivating Semi-Persistent Scheduling (SPS) in a wireless communication system. SPS is a technique used in wireless networks to allocate radio resources for specific users at predefined intervals.
- The patent application provides a method for a User Equipment (UE) to determine if a base station skips one or more occurrences of SPS Physical Downlink Shared Channel (SPS PDSCH).
- If the base station skips SPS PDSCH occurrences, the method allows the UE to skip transmitting Hybrid Automatic Repeat Request (HARQ) feedback for those occurrences.
- The invention includes computer programs and apparatuses that enable the implementation of the method.
Potential applications of this technology:
- Wireless communication systems: The invention can be applied in various wireless communication systems, such as cellular networks, to improve resource allocation efficiency.
- Internet of Things (IoT): The technology can be utilized in IoT networks to optimize resource usage and enhance communication reliability.
Problems solved by this technology:
- Efficient resource allocation: By skipping the transmission of HARQ feedback for skipped SPS PDSCH occurrences, the invention helps to optimize the allocation of radio resources.
- Reduced overhead: Skipping HARQ feedback reduces the signaling overhead in the wireless communication system, leading to improved efficiency and reduced latency.
Benefits of this technology:
- Improved resource utilization: The invention allows for more efficient utilization of radio resources by skipping unnecessary HARQ feedback transmissions.
- Reduced signaling overhead: By skipping HARQ feedback for skipped SPS PDSCH occurrences, the technology reduces signaling overhead, leading to improved system performance and reduced latency.
Original Abstract Submitted
Methods, computer programs products, and apparatuses for SPS reactivation are provided. An example method at a UE includes determining that a base station skips one or more semi-persistent scheduling (SPS) physical downlink shared channel (SPS PDSCH) occurrences. The method further includes skipping transmission of a hybrid automatic repeat request (HARQ) feedback for the one or more SPS PDSCH occurrences.
