Abstract

The present invention relates to wireless communications suitable for smart manufacturing and industrial automation. In particular, the invention proposes a wireless communication device (UE) and a network device (BS), in particular suitable for cyclic communication. The BS is configured to provide a first information defining a hopping sequence to a UE, and to provide a second information to the UE defining when the hopping sequence should be repeated, in particular periodically repeated. The UE is accordingly configured to receive the first information from the BS, and to receive the second information from the BS. The hopping sequence specifies at least two spatial resources and / or at least two radio resources, which the UE is configured to use for transmissions to and / or from the BS.

Embodiment Construction

[0091] figure 1 It shows a network device 100 according to an embodiment of the present invention, especially a base station (Base Station, BS), such as a gNodeB (NextGenerationNodeB, gNodeB) or an infrastructure node, and a wireless communication device 110, especially a user equipment (User Equipment, UE ). In particular, the device 100 and the device 110 are used to perform cyclic communication, ie, communication that is repeated cyclically. Device 100 and device 110 are particularly well suited for use in industrial automation scenarios.

[0092] The BS is configured to provide the UE 110 with first information 101 defining a hopping sequence 102 . The first information 101 may include the hopping sequence 102 or may allow the UE 110 to be able to derive the hopping sequence 102 . Accordingly, the UE 110 is configured to obtain and / or receive first information 101 defining a hopping sequence 102 from the BS 100 .

[0093] The BS 100 is also adapted to provide the UE 1...
