TRANSPORT BLOCK OVER MULTIPLE SLOTS FOR DOWNLINK TRANSMISSIONS - A simplified explanation of the abstract

  • This abstract for appeared for US patent application number 18129658 Titled 'TRANSPORT BLOCK OVER MULTIPLE SLOTS FOR DOWNLINK TRANSMISSIONS'

Simplified Explanation

This abstract describes mechanisms for a user equipment (UE) to receive a physical downlink shared channel (PDSCH) transmission of a transport block (TB) over multiple slots. The UE receives a configuration for the PDSCH transmission, which includes information about the number of slots involved. The UE then determines the size of the transport block and allocates the necessary number of slots to support the transmission. If the size of the transport block meets certain criteria, the UE receives and decodes the PDSCH transmission.


Original Abstract Submitted

Mechanisms are provided for a user equipment (UE) to receive physical downlink shared channel (PDSCH) transmissions of a transport block (TB) over multiple slots. The UE can receive a configuration for a PDSCH transmission of a TB over multiple slots (TBoMS), such as a first number of slots, through a downlink from a base station. The configuration can include an indication of the first number of slots. The UE can further determine a transport block size (TBS) for the PDSCH transmission, and allocate a second number of slots used by the UE to support the PDSCH transmission. Based on the TBS for the PDSCH transmission satisfying a condition, the processor can be configured to receive the PDSCH transmission of the TB over the second number of slots, and decode the PDSCH transmission received.
