TECHNIQUES TO ENHANCE HARQ-ACK MULTIPLEXING ON PUSCH WITH REPETITIONS - A simplified explanation of the abstract
- This abstract for appeared for US patent application number 18051491 Titled 'TECHNIQUES TO ENHANCE HARQ-ACK MULTIPLEXING ON PUSCH WITH REPETITIONS'
Simplified Explanation
The abstract describes a technology that allows for the efficient transmission of feedback information in wireless communication systems. Specifically, it focuses on the use of Hybrid Automatic Repeat Request (HARQ) feedback multiplexing on the Uplink Shared Channel (PUSCH) with repetitions. The method involves receiving an uplink grant that schedules an uplink transmission with a certain number of repetitions. The uplink grant also includes a bit indicator. The method then transmits the first repetition of the uplink transmission, which includes multiplexing a certain number of HARQ-ACK feedback bits for a Downlink Shared Channel (PDSCH) scheduled by a downlink grant. The number of HARQ-ACK feedback bits is determined based on the bit indicator. Importantly, the first repetition and the HARQ-ACK feedback overlap in the time domain.
Original Abstract Submitted
Apparatus, methods, and computer-readable media for facilitating HARQ feedback multiplexing on PUSCH with repetitions are disclosed herein. An example method for wireless communication at a UE includes receiving an uplink grant scheduling an uplink transmission associated with a repetition quantity, the uplink grant including a bit indicator. The example method also includes transmitting a first repetition of the uplink transmission. The first repetition may include multiplexing of a quantity of HARQ-ACK feedback bits HARQ-ACK feedback for a PDSCH scheduled by a downlink grant, and the quantity of the HARQ-ACK feedback bits may be based on the bit indicator. The first repetition and the HARQ-ACK feedback may overlap in a time domain.
