CONFIGURED GRANT ENHANCEMENTS FOR EXTENDED REALITY UPLINK TRAFFIC - A simplified explanation of the abstract

  • This abstract for appeared for US patent application number 18304165 Titled 'CONFIGURED GRANT ENHANCEMENTS FOR EXTENDED REALITY UPLINK TRAFFIC'

Simplified Explanation

This abstract describes methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications. It introduces the concept of a configured grant (CG)-specific retransmission timer configuration, which is based on the type of traffic being communicated. The abstract explains that a network entity can indicate a CG for uplink transmissions and specify a retransmission timer specific to that CG. The user equipment (UE) can then transmit data messages according to the CG and monitor a downlink control channel for control information indicating a retransmission request within a specific time period based on the retransmission timer value. Additionally, the abstract mentions a downlink-to-uplink configuration dependency, where the uplink periodicity of a CG is determined based on the downlink periodicity.


Original Abstract Submitted

Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. In some systems, a user equipment (UE) and a network entity may support a configured grant (CG)-specific retransmission timer configuration based on a traffic type to be communicated using a given CG. For example, the network entity may indicate a CG for uplink transmissions and may indicate a retransmission timer that is specific to the CG. As such, the UE may transmit a data message in accordance with the CG and may select a time period during which to monitor a downlink control channel for control information indicating a retransmission request for the data message in accordance with a value of the retransmission timer. Additionally, or alternatively, the UE and the network entity may support a downlink-to-uplink configuration dependency for determining an uplink periodicity of a CG based on a downlink periodicity.
