[0003] The following generally pertains to wireless communication, and more specifically to the physical (PHY) layer and media access control (MAC) layer operations following the uplink cancellation indication (ULCI). Background Technology

[0004] Wireless communication systems are widely deployed to provide various types of communication content, such as voice, video, packet data, messaging, and broadcasting. These systems may be able to support communication with multiple users by sharing available system resources (e.g., time, frequency, and power). Examples of such multiple access systems include fourth-generation (4G) systems (e.g., Long Term Evolution (LTE) systems, LTE-A Advanced (LTE-A) systems, or LTE-A Pro systems) and fifth-generation (5G) systems (which may be referred to as New Radio (NR) systems). These systems may employ technologies such as Code Division Multiple Access (CDMA), Time Division Multiple Access (TDMA), Frequency Division Multiple Access (FDMA), Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiple Access (OFDMA), or Discrete Fourier Transform Extended Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing (DFT-S-OFDM). A wireless multiple access communication system may include one or more base stations or one or more network access nodes, each base station or network access node simultaneously supporting communication with multiple communication devices, which may also be referred to as User Equipment (UE). Summary of the Invention

[0005] The described technology relates to improved methods, systems, apparatuses, and devices for supporting physical (PHY) and media access control (MAC) layer operation following an uplink cancellation indication (ULCI). Typically, the described technology provides for processing transmission cancellation at the PHY and MAC layers. For example, a user equipment (UE) can receive from a base station an indication to cancel at least a portion of an uplink or downlink transmission, instead allocating resources previously allocated to the uplink or downlink transmission for a higher-priority uplink or downlink transmission (e.g., an ultra-reliable low-latency (URLLC) transmission from another UE). The UE can cancel at least a portion of a specified transmission based on receiving this indication, which can be an uplink cancellation indication (ULCI), a slot format indicator (SFI), downlink control information (DCI), or a downlink or uplink grant. In some cases, the UE can be scheduled for full-duplex communication but can be (e.g., only) configured for half-duplex communication.

[0006] As described herein, the UE can determine its response to a cancellation instruction, particularly at the PHY or MAC layer. For example, the UE can determine how to perform power control calculations, intra-UE multiplexing, and new data indicator counting based on the cancellation instruction. For example, the UE can receive from the base station an authorization for a first transmission associated with first transmission parameters scheduled on a first resource set. The base station can determine that a transmission different from the first transmission can be scheduled on a resource set that at least partially overlaps with the first resource set. For example, a transmission with a higher priority than the first transmission can be scheduled. The base station can generate a cancellation instruction based on the scheduled high-priority transmission. The UE can receive from the base station a cancellation instruction indicating at least partial cancellation of the first transmission. As a result, the UE can discard at least a portion of the first transmission based on the received instruction. The UE can determine second transmission parameters for a second transmission, at least in part based on the first transmission parameters and independent of discarding the first transmission, and the UE can send or receive the second transmission according to the second transmission parameters.

[0007] Alternatively or additionally, the UE may receive a first grant for a first transmission scheduled for a first resource set and a second grant for a second transmission scheduled for a second resource set overlapping with the first resource set. The UE may follow intra-UE conflict resolution (e.g., multiplexing), which may cause the UE to discard at least a portion of the first transmission based on the received second grant. The base station may determine that a transmission different from the first or second transmission can be scheduled on a resource set that at least partially overlaps with the second resource set. For example, a transmission with a higher priority than the second transmission may be scheduled (e.g., dynamically scheduled transmission). The base station may generate a cancellation indication based on the scheduled high-priority transmission. After discarding a portion of the first transmission, the UE may receive a cancellation indication from the base station to at least partially cancel the second transmission, and the UE may discard at least a portion of the second transmission. Although the conflict between the second and first transmissions is resolved based on the cancellation indication, the UE may avoid rescheduling the first transmission on the first resource set. Therefore, the cancellation indication will be applied after the MAC and PHY layer procedures are completed and will not change the previously taken actions (e.g., for conflict resolution).

[0059] In some wireless communication systems, user equipment (UE) can support the use of cancellation indications (also known as preemption indications) to configure overlapping transmissions based on priority. The base station can send a cancellation indication to a UE requesting at least a portion of the transmission. As a result, the UE can cancel the reception or transmission of at least a portion of the indicated transmission. After receiving the cancellation indication, the UE can also perform physical (PHY) layer and media access control (MAC) layer procedures. In some cases, when cancellation indications are supported, the UE can be configured with a specific sequence of procedures, and this configured sequence of operations allows the UE to effectively perform layer procedures, transmission cancellation, and the reception or transmission of subsequent transmissions.

[0060] For example, the operation sequence can be applied to all PHY and MAC layer procedures, or it can be specific to unique PHY or MAC layer procedures. The configured sequence can allow the UE to reduce transmission latency by minimizing the number of changes to the PHY or MAC layer procedures. In some examples, when the UE receives a cancellation indication, there may be no update to previously executed PHY and MAC layer procedures. PHY and MAC layer procedures may include power control, intra-UE multiplexing, New Data Indicator (NDI) counting, MAC Protocol Data Unit (PDU) generation, buffer management, and other PHY and MAC operations.

[0061] Operational order can be applied to both uplink and downlink operations, and in some cases, the UE can be restricted to half-duplex communication. For example, multiple uplink transmissions can be configured at the UE, and the UE can subsequently receive a cancellation indication to cancel at least a portion of the uplink transmission. After the UE discards the uplink transmission, it can determine the transmission parameters for the remaining portion of the uplink transmission as if the specified transmission had not been discarded. In another example, multiple downlink transmissions can be configured to be received by the UE, and dynamically scheduled downlink transmissions can preempt one of the previously configured downlink transmissions. Therefore, the base station can send a cancellation indication to the UE indicating that another transmission will preempt at least a portion of the previously scheduled downlink transmission. After the UE discards the indicated portion of the indicated transmission, it can avoid updating the previously determined transmission parameters for the remaining downlink transmissions. In some cases, both downlink and uplink transmissions can be considered in the configured operational order.

[0062] The aspects of this disclosure are initially described in the context of a wireless communication system. These aspects are further illustrated and described with reference to apparatus diagrams, system diagrams, and flowcharts relating to the operation of the PHY and MAC layers following the Uplink Cancellation Indication (ULCI).

The wireless communication system 100 may include one or more base stations 105, one or more UEs 115, and a core network 130. In some examples, the wireless communication system 100 may be a Long Term Evolution (LTE) network, an Advanced LTE (LTE-A) network, an LTE-A Pro network, or a New Radio (NR) network.

Base station 105 may communicate with each other directly (e.g., directly between base stations 105) or indirectly (e.g., via core network 130) or both via backhaul links 120 (e.g., via X2, Xn, or other interfaces). In some examples, backhaul link 120 may be or include one or more radio links.

[0070] UE 115 and base station 105 can wirelessly communicate with each other via one or more communication links 125 on one or more carriers. The term "carrier" can refer to a set of radio spectrum resources having a defined physical layer structure for supporting communication link 125. For example, a carrier for communication link 125 may include a portion of the radio spectrum band (e.g., a bandwidth portion (BWP)) operating according to one or more physical layer channels for a given radio access technology (e.g., LTE, LTE-A, LTE-A Pro, NR). Each physical layer channel may carry acquisition signaling (e.g., synchronization signals, system information), control signaling coordinating carrier operation, user data, or other signaling. Wireless communication system 100 can support communication with UE 115 using carrier aggregation or multi-carrier operation. UE 115 can be configured to have multiple downlink component carriers and one or more uplink component carriers according to a carrier aggregation configuration. Carrier aggregation can be used in conjunction with both frequency division duplex (FDD) and time division duplex (TDD) component carriers.

[0071] In some examples (e.g., in a carrier aggregation configuration), a carrier may also have acquisition signaling or control signaling to coordinate the operation of other carriers. A carrier may be associated with a frequency channel (e.g., an Evolved Universal Mobile Telecommunications Terrestrial Radio Access (E-UTRA) Absolute Radio Channel Number (EARFCN)) and may be located based on a channel grid used for discovery by UE 115. A carrier may operate in an independent mode where initial acquisition and connection can be performed by UE 115 via the carrier, or in a non-independent mode where different carriers anchored (e.g., the same or different radio access technologies) may be connected.

[0072] The communication link 125 shown in the wireless communication system 100 may include uplink transmission from UE 115 to base station 105, or downlink transmission from base station 105 to UE 115. A carrier may carry either downlink or uplink communication (e.g., in FDD mode), or may be configured to carry both downlink and uplink communication (e.g., in TDD mode).

[0073] A carrier can be associated with a specific bandwidth of the radio spectrum, and in some examples, the carrier bandwidth can be referred to as the carrier or the “system bandwidth” of the wireless communication system 100. For example, the carrier bandwidth can be one of several defined bandwidths (e.g., 1.4, 3, 5, 10, 15, 20, 40, or 80 MHz) of a carrier for a particular radio access technology. Devices of the wireless communication system 100 (e.g., base station 105, UE 115, or both) can have a hardware configuration that supports communication over a specific carrier bandwidth or can be configured to support communication over a single carrier bandwidth within a set of carrier bandwidths. In some examples, the wireless communication system 100 may include a base station 105 or UE 115 that supports simultaneous communication via carriers associated with multiple carrier bandwidths. In some examples, each served UE 115 can be configured to operate over a portion (e.g., a subband, BWP) or all of the carrier bandwidth.

[0074] The signal waveform transmitted via a carrier can consist of multiple subcarriers (e.g., using multi-carrier modulation (MCM) techniques, such as orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) or discrete Fourier transform extended OFDM (DFT-S-OFDM)). In a system employing MCM, a resource element can include a symbol period (e.g., the duration of a modulation symbol) and a subcarrier, where the symbol period and subcarrier spacing are inversely related. The number of bits carried by each resource element can depend on the modulation scheme (e.g., the order of the modulation scheme, the coding rate of the modulation scheme, or both). Therefore, the more resource elements the UE115 receives and the higher the order of the modulation scheme, the higher the data rate the UE115 can achieve. Wireless communication resources can refer to a combination of radio spectrum resources, temporal resources, and spatial resources (e.g., spatial layers or beams), and the use of multiple spatial layers can further improve the data rate or data integrity used for communication with the UE115.

[0075] One or more sets of parameters can be supported for a carrier, where the parameter set may include subcarrier spacing (Δf) and cyclic prefix. A carrier can be divided into one or more BWPs with the same or different parameter sets. In some examples, UE 115 can be configured with multiple BWPs. In some examples, a single BWP for a carrier can be active at a given time, and communication for UE 115 can be restricted to one or more active BWPs.

[0076] The time interval of base station 105 or UE 115 can be expressed as a multiple of a basic time unit, such as T. s =1 / (Δf) max ·N f The sampling period is ) seconds, where Δf maxThis can represent the maximum supported subcarrier spacing, and N f This can represent the maximum supported Discrete Fourier Transform (DFT) size. The time interval of the communication resources can be organized according to each radio frame having a specified duration (e.g., 10 milliseconds (ms)). Each radio frame can be identified by a System Frame Number (SFN) (e.g., ranging from 0 to 1023).

[0077] Each frame may include multiple consecutively numbered subframes or time slots, and each subframe or time slot may have the same duration. In some examples, a frame may be divided (e.g., in the time domain) into subframes, and each subframe may be further divided into multiple time slots. Alternatively, each frame may include a variable number of time slots, and the number of time slots may depend on the subcarrier spacing. Each time slot may include multiple symbol periods (e.g., depending on the length of the cyclic prefix preceding each symbol period). In some wireless communication systems 100, a time slot may be further divided into multiple mini-time slots, each mini-time slot containing one or more symbols. In addition to the cyclic prefix, each symbol period may contain one or more (e.g., N) symbols. f (Number) sampling periods. The duration of a symbol period can depend on the subcarrier spacing or frequency band of the operation.

[0078] A subframe, time slot, mini-time slot, or symbol can be the smallest scheduling unit of the wireless communication system 100 (e.g., in the time domain) and can be referred to as a transmission time interval (TTI). In some examples, the duration of the TTI (e.g., the number of symbol periods in the TTI) can be variable. Additionally or alternatively, the smallest scheduling unit of the wireless communication system 100 can be dynamically selected (e.g., in a burst of shortened TTIs (sTTIs)).

[0079] Physical channels can be multiplexed on carriers using various techniques. Physical control channels and physical data channels can be multiplexed on downlink carriers, for example, using one or more of Time Division Multiplexing (TDM), Frequency Division Multiplexing (FDM), or hybrid TDM-FDM techniques. The control region (e.g., control resource set (CORESET)) of a physical control channel can be defined by multiple symbol periods and can extend across the system bandwidth or a subset of the system bandwidth of a carrier. One or more control regions (e.g., CORESET) can be configured for a set of UEs 115. For example, one or more UEs 115 can monitor or search control regions to obtain control information based on one or more search space sets, and each search space set can include one or more control channel candidates from one or more aggregation levels arranged in a cascaded manner. The aggregation level of control channel candidates can refer to the number of control channel resources (e.g., control channel elements (CCEs)) associated with coded information in a control information format having a given payload size. The search space set can include a common search space set configured to send control information to multiple UEs 115 and a UE-specific search space set for sending control information to a specific UE 115.

[0080] Each base station 105 may provide communication coverage via one or more cells (e.g., macro cells, small cells, hotspots, or other types of cells, or any combination thereof). The term "cell" may refer to a logical communication entity used to communicate with base station 105 (e.g., via a carrier) and may be associated with an identifier used to distinguish neighboring cells (e.g., Physical Cell Identifier (PCID), Virtual Cell Identifier (VCID), or others). In some examples, a cell may also refer to a geographic coverage area 110 or a portion of geographic coverage area 110 (e.g., a sector) on which a logical communication entity operates. Depending on various factors such as the capabilities of base station 105, the range of such cells may be from smaller areas (e.g., structures, subsets of structures) to larger areas. For example, a cell may be or include buildings, subsets of buildings, or external space between or overlapping geographic coverage areas 110.

[0081] Macro cells typically cover a relatively large geographical area (e.g., a radius of several kilometers) and can allow unrestricted access for UE 115 with a service subscription to a network provider supporting the macro cell. In contrast, small cells can be associated with a lower-power base station 105 and can operate in the same or different (e.g., licensed or unlicensed) frequency bands as macro cells. Small cells can provide unrestricted access to UE 115 with a service subscription to a network provider, or restricted access to UE 115 associated with a small cell (e.g., UE 115 in a Closed Subscriber Group (CSG), or UE 115 associated with a user in a home or office). Base station 105 can support one or more cells and can also support communication on one or more cells using one or more component carriers.

[0082] In some examples, a carrier can support multiple cells and can be configured with different cells based on different protocol types that can provide access to different types of devices (e.g., MTC, Narrowband IoT (NB-IoT), Enhanced Mobile Broadband (eMBB)).

[0083] In some examples, base station 105 may be mobile, and thus provide communication coverage for mobile geographic coverage areas 110. In some examples, different geographic coverage areas 110 associated with different technologies may overlap, but different geographic coverage areas 110 may be supported by the same base station 105. In other examples, overlapping geographic coverage areas 110 associated with different technologies may be supported by different base stations 105. Wireless communication system 100 may include, for example, a heterogeneous network in which different types of base stations 105 use the same or different radio access technologies to provide coverage for various geographic coverage areas 110.

[0084] The wireless communication system 100 can support synchronous or asynchronous operation. For synchronous operation, base stations 105 can have similar frame timing, and transmissions from different base stations 105 can be approximately aligned in time. For asynchronous operation, base stations 105 can have different frame timing, and in some examples, transmissions from different base stations 105 may not be aligned in time. The techniques described herein can be used for both synchronous and asynchronous operation.

[0085] Some UE 115 devices (such as MTC or IoT devices) can be low-cost or low-complexity devices and can provide automated communication between machines (e.g., via machine-to-machine (M2M) communication). M2M communication or MTC can refer to data communication technologies that allow devices to communicate with each other or with base station 105 without human intervention. In some examples, M2M communication or MTC can include communication from devices that integrate sensors or meters to measure or capture information and relay such information to a central server or application that utilizes or presents the information to people interacting with the application. Some UE 115 devices can be designed to collect information or enable automated behavior of machines or other devices. Examples of applications for MTC devices include smart metering, inventory monitoring, water level monitoring, equipment monitoring, healthcare monitoring, wildlife monitoring, weather and geological event monitoring, train management and tracking, remote security sensing, physical access control, and transaction-based service charging.

[0086] Some UE 115s can be configured to operate in reduced-power modes, such as half-duplex communication (e.g., a mode that supports unidirectional communication via transmission or reception, but not simultaneous transmission and reception). In some examples, half-duplex communication can be performed at a reduced peak rate. Other power-saving techniques for UE 115s include entering a power-efficient deep sleep mode when not engaged in active communication, operating on limited bandwidth (e.g., according to narrowband communication), or a combination of these techniques. For example, some UE 115s can be configured to operate using a narrowband protocol type associated with a defined portion or range (e.g., a set of subcarriers or resource blocks (RBs)) within a carrier, within a carrier's guard band, or outside a carrier.

[0087] Wireless communication system 100 can be configured to support ultra-reliable communication or low-latency communication, or various combinations thereof. For example, wireless communication system 100 can be configured to support ultra-reliable low-latency communication (URLLC) or mission-critical communication. UE 115 can be designed to support ultra-reliable, low-latency, or mission-critical functions (e.g., mission-critical functions). Ultra-reliable communication can include private or group communication and can be supported by one or more mission-critical services (such as mission-critical push-to-talk (MCPTT), mission-critical video (MCVideo), or mission-critical data (MCData)). Support for mission-critical functions can include service prioritization, and mission-critical services can be used for public safety or general commercial applications. The terms ultra-reliable, low-latency, mission-critical, and ultra-reliable low-latency are used interchangeably herein.

[0088] In some examples, UE 115 can also communicate directly with other UE 115 via device-to-device (D2D) communication link 135 (e.g., using peer-to-peer (P2P) or D2D protocols). One or more UE 115s utilizing D2D communication can be within the geographic coverage area 110 of base station 105. Other UE 115s in such a group may be outside the geographic coverage area 110 of base station 105 or otherwise unable to receive transmissions from base station 105. In some examples, the group of UE 115s communicating via D2D communication can utilize a one-to-many (1:M) system, in which each UE 115 sends to every other UE 115 in the group. In some examples, base station 105 facilitates the scheduling of resources for D2D communication. In other cases, D2D communication is performed between UE 115s without involving base station 105.

[0089] In some systems, the D2D communication link 135 may be an example of a communication channel between vehicles (e.g., UE 115), such as a sidelink communication channel. In some examples, vehicles may communicate using vehicle-to-everything (V2X) communication, vehicle-to-vehicle (V2V) communication, or some combination of these communications. Vehicles may signal information related to traffic conditions, signaling, weather, safety, emergencies, or any other information related to the V2X system. In some examples, vehicles in a V2X system may communicate with roadside infrastructure (such as roadside units) or with the network, or both, via one or more network nodes (e.g., base station 105) using vehicle-to-network (V2N) communication.

[0090] Core network 130 can provide user authentication, access authorization, tracking, Internet Protocol (IP) connectivity, and other access, routing, or mobility functions. Core network 130 can be an evolved packet core (EPC) or a 5G core (5GC), and can include at least one control plane entity (e.g., a mobility management entity (MME), access and mobility management function (AMF)) managing access and mobility, and at least one user plane entity (e.g., a serving gateway (S-GW), packet data network (PDN) gateway (P-GW), user plane function (UPF)) routing packets or interconnects to external networks. The control plane entity can manage non-access stratum (NAS) functions of UE 115 served by base station 105 associated with core network 130, such as mobility, authentication, and bearer management. User IP packets can be transmitted through the user plane entity, which can provide IP address allocation and other functions. The user plane entity can connect to network operator IP service 150. Network operator IP service 150 can include access to the Internet, intranet(s), IP Multimedia Subsystem (IMS), or packet-switched streaming services.

[0091] Some network devices (such as base station 105) may include sub-components such as access network entity 140, which may be an example of an access node controller (ANC). Each access network entity 140 may communicate with UE 115 through one or more other access network transport entities 145, which may be referred to as a radio head, smart radio head, or transmit / receive point (TRP). Each access network transport entity 145 may include one or more antenna panels. In some configurations, the various functions of each access network entity 140 or base station 105 may be distributed across various network devices (e.g., radio heads and ANCs) or combined into a single network device (e.g., base station 105).

[0092] Wireless communication system 100 can operate using one or more frequency bands, which may include the range from 300 MHz to 300 GHz. Typically, the region from 300 MHz to 3 GHz is referred to as the Ultra High Frequency (UHF) region or decimeter band because the wavelength range is from approximately 1 decimeter to 1 meter. UHF waves may be blocked or have their direction altered by buildings and environmental features, but these waves can penetrate structures sufficiently to allow macrocells to provide service to UE 115 located indoors. Compared to transmissions using smaller frequencies and longer waves in the High Frequency (HF) or Very High Frequency (VHF) portions of the spectrum below 300 MHz, UHF wave transmission can be associated with smaller antennas and shorter ranges (e.g., less than 100 km).

[0093] The wireless communication system 100 can also operate in the ultra-high frequency (SHF) region (also known as the centimeter band) using the frequency band from 3 GHz to 30 GHz, or in the extremely high frequency (EHF) region of the spectrum (e.g., from 30 GHz to 300 GHz) (also known as the millimeter band). In some examples, the wireless communication system 100 can support millimeter-wave (mmW) communication between the UE 115 and the base station 105, and the EHF antennas of the corresponding devices can be smaller and more closely spaced than UHF antennas. In some examples, this can facilitate the use of antenna arrays within the device. However, compared to SHF or UHF transmissions, EHF transmissions may suffer from even greater atmospheric attenuation and shorter range. Transmissions using one or more different frequency regions can employ the techniques disclosed herein, and the designated use of frequency bands across these frequency regions can vary by country or regulatory body.

[0094] Wireless communication system 100 can utilize both licensed and unlicensed radio spectrum bands. For example, wireless communication system 100 can employ Licensed Assisted Access (LAA), LTE Unlicensed (LTE-U) radio access technology, or NR technology in unlicensed bands such as the 5 GHz Industrial, Scientific, and Medical (ISM) band. When operating in unlicensed radio spectrum bands, devices such as base station 105 and UE 115 can employ carrier sensing for detecting and avoiding collisions. In some examples, operation in unlicensed bands can be based on carrier aggregation configurations that combine component carriers operating in licensed bands (e.g., LAA). Operation in unlicensed spectrum can include downlink transmissions, uplink transmissions, P2P transmissions, or D2D transmissions, etc.

[0095] Base station 105 or UE 115 may be equipped with multiple antennas that can be used to employ techniques such as transmit diversity, receive diversity, multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) communication, or beamforming. The antennas of base station 105 or UE 115 may be located within one or more antenna arrays or antenna panels that can support MIMO operation or transmit or receive beamforming. For example, one or more base station antennas or antenna arrays may be located together at an antenna assembly (such as an antenna tower). In some examples, the antennas or antenna arrays associated with base station 105 may be located in various geographical locations. Base station 105 may have an antenna array with multiple rows and columns of antenna ports that base station 105 can use to support beamforming for communication with UE 115. Similarly, UE 115 may have one or more antenna arrays that can support various MIMO or beamforming operations. Additionally or alternatively, the antenna panel may support radio frequency beamforming for signals transmitted via the antenna ports.

[0096] Base station 105 or UE 115 can use MIMO communication to utilize multipath signal propagation and improve spectral efficiency by sending or receiving multiple signals via different spatial layers. This technique can be referred to as spatial multiplexing. For example, multiple signals can be transmitted by a transmitting device via different antennas or different combinations of antennas. Similarly, multiple signals can be received by a receiving device via different antennas or different combinations of antennas. Each of the multiple signals can be referred to as a separate spatial stream and can carry bits associated with the same data stream (e.g., the same codeword) or different data streams (e.g., different codewords). Different spatial layers can be associated with different antenna ports used for channel measurement and reporting. MIMO techniques include single-user MIMO (SU-MIMO) and multi-user MIMO (MU-MIMO), where in single-user MIMO, multiple spatial layers are sent to the same receiving device, and in multi-user MIMO, multiple spatial layers are sent to multiple devices.

[0097] Beamforming (also known as spatial filtering, directional transmission, or directional reception) is a signal processing technique that can be used at a transmitting or receiving device (e.g., base station 105, UE 115) to shape and control an antenna beam (e.g., transmit beam, receive beam) along a spatial path between the transmitting and receiving devices. Beamforming can be achieved by combining signals communicated via antenna elements of an antenna array such that some signals propagating relative to the antenna array in a particular orientation experience constructive interference, while others experience destructive interference. Adjustments to the signals communicated via the antenna elements can include the transmitting or receiving device applying amplitude offset, phase offset, or both to the signals carried by the antenna elements associated with that device. The adjustment associated with each of the antenna elements can be defined by a beamforming weight set associated with a particular orientation (e.g., relative to the antenna array of the transmitting or receiving device, or relative to some other orientation).

[0098] Base station 105 or UE 115 may use beam scanning technology as part of beamforming operations. For example, base station 105 may use multiple antennas or antenna arrays (e.g., antenna panels) to perform beamforming operations for directional communication with UE 115. Some signals (e.g., synchronization signals, reference signals, beam selection signals, or other control signals) may be transmitted multiple times by base station 105 in different directions. For example, base station 105 may transmit signals according to different beamforming weight sets associated with different transmission directions. Transmissions in different beam directions may be used (e.g., by a transmitting device such as base station 105 or by a receiving device such as UE 115) to identify the beam direction for later transmission or reception by base station 105.

[0099] Some signals (such as data signals associated with a particular receiving device) may be transmitted by base station 105 in a single beam direction (e.g., the direction associated with the receiving device (such as UE 115)). In some examples, the beam direction associated with transmission along a single beam direction may be determined based on the signals transmitted in one or more beam directions. For example, UE 115 may receive one or more signals transmitted by base station 105 in different directions and may report to base station 105 an indication that UE 115 received a signal with the highest signal quality or other acceptable signal quality.

[0100] In some examples, transmissions via a device (e.g., via base station 105 or UE 115) may be performed using multiple beam directions, and the device may use a combination of digital precoding or radio frequency beamforming to generate a combined beam for transmission (e.g., from base station 105 to UE 115). UE 115 may report feedback indicating precoding weights for one or more beam directions, and this feedback may correspond to a configured number of beams across the system bandwidth or one or more subbands. Base station 105 may transmit reference signals (e.g., cell-specific reference signals (CRS), channel state information reference signals (CSI-RS)), which may be pre-coded or uncoded. UE 115 may provide feedback for beam selection, which may be a pre-coded matrix indicator (PMI) or codebook-based feedback (e.g., multi-panel codebook, linear combination codebook, port selection codebook). Although these techniques are described with reference to the signals transmitted by the base station 105 in one or more directions, the UE 115 may employ similar techniques to transmit signals multiple times in different directions (e.g., to identify the beam direction for subsequent transmission or reception of the UE 115) or to transmit signals in a single direction (e.g., to transmit data to a receiving device).

[0101] A receiving device (e.g., UE 115) may attempt multiple receiving configurations (e.g., directional listening) when receiving various signals (such as synchronization signals, reference signals, beam selection signals, or other control signals) from base station 105. For example, the receiving device may attempt multiple receiving directions by: receiving via different antenna subarrays; processing the received signal according to different antenna subarrays; receiving according to different sets of receiving beamforming weights applied to signals received at multiple antenna elements of the antenna array (e.g., different directional listening weight sets); or processing the received signal according to different sets of receiving beamforming weights applied to signals received at multiple antenna elements of the antenna array, any of which can be referred to as "listening" according to different receiving configurations or receiving directions. In some examples, the receiving device may use a single receiving configuration to receive along a single beam direction (e.g., when receiving data signals). The single receiving configuration may be aligned in a beam direction determined based on listening according to different receiving configuration directions (e.g., based on a beam direction with the highest signal strength, highest signal-to-noise ratio (SNR), or other acceptable signal quality determined by listening according to multiple beam directions).

[0102] The wireless communication system 100 can be a packet-based network operating according to a layered protocol stack. In the user plane, communication at the bearer or Packet Data Convergence Protocol (PDCP) layer can be IP-based. The Radio Link Control (RLC) layer can perform packet segmentation and reassembly for communication on logical channels. The Media Access Control (MAC) layer can perform priority processing and multiplex logical channels into transport channels. The MAC layer can also use error detection techniques, error correction techniques, or both to support retransmission at the MAC layer to improve link efficiency. In the control plane, the Radio Resource Control (RRC) protocol layer can provide the establishment, configuration, and maintenance of RRC connections between the UE 115 and the base station 105 or core network 130 that supports user plane data radio bearers. At the physical layer, transport channels can be mapped to physical channels.

[0103] UE 115 and base station 105 can support data retransmission to increase the likelihood of successful data reception. Hybrid Automatic Repeat Request (HARQ) feedback is a technique used to increase the likelihood of correctly receiving data through communication link 125. HARQ can include a combination of error detection (e.g., using Cyclic Redundancy Check (CRC)), forward error correction (FEC), and retransmission (e.g., Automatic Repeat Request (ARQ)). HARQ can improve throughput at the MAC layer under adverse radio conditions (e.g., low signal-to-noise ratio conditions). In some examples, the device can support same-slot HARQ feedback, where the device can provide HARQ feedback in a specific time slot for data received in a previous period within that time slot. In other cases, the device can provide HARQ feedback in subsequent time slots or according to some other time interval.

[0104] In some cases, UE 115 can determine its response to a cancellation indication received from base station 105, particularly at the PHY or MAC layer. For example, UE 115 can determine how to perform power control calculations, intra-UE multiplexing, and new data indicator counting based on the cancellation indication. For example, UE 115 can receive an authorization for a first transmission associated with first transmission parameters scheduled on a first resource set from base station 105. Base station 105 can later determine that a transmission different from the first transmission can be scheduled on a resource set that at least partially overlaps with the first resource set. For example, a transmission with a higher priority than the first transmission can be scheduled. Base station 105 can generate and send a cancellation indication for UE 115 based on the scheduled high-priority transmission. UE 115 can receive the cancellation indication, and UE 115 can discard at least a portion of the first transmission based on the received indication. UE 115 can also determine, at least in part, second transmission parameters for a second transmission scheduled after the first transmission, independent of discarding the first transmission, and UE 115 can send or receive the second transmission according to the second transmission parameters. Therefore, the cancellation instruction can be applied at UE 115 after the MAC and PHY layer procedures are completed, without changing the previous procedures.

[0105] Additionally or alternatively, UE 115 may receive a first grant for a first transmission scheduled for a first resource set and a second grant for a second transmission scheduled for a second resource set overlapping with the first resource set. UE 115 may follow intra-UE multiplexing conflict resolution, which may cause UE 115 to discard at least a portion of the first transmission based on the received second grant. Base station 105 may determine that a transmission different from the first or second transmission can be scheduled on a resource set that at least partially overlaps with the second resource set. For example, a transmission with a higher priority than the second transmission may be scheduled (e.g., a dynamically scheduled transmission). Base station 105 may generate a cancellation indication based on the scheduled high-priority transmission and send the cancellation indication to UE 115. After discarding a portion of the first transmission due to intra-UE multiplexing conflict resolution, UE 115 may receive a cancellation indication from base station 105 to at least partially cancel the second transmission, and UE 115 may discard at least a portion of the second transmission. Although the conflict between the second and first transmissions is resolved based on the cancellation indication, UE 115 may avoid rescheduling the first transmission on the first resource set. Therefore, a cancellation instruction can be applied at UE 115 after the MAC and PHY layer procedures are completed, without changing the previously taken actions (e.g., for conflict resolution).

[0106] Figure 2 An example of a wireless communication system 200 supporting PHY and MAC layer operation after ULCI according to aspects of this disclosure is shown. In some examples, wireless communication system 200 may implement aspects of wireless communication system 100. Wireless communication system 200 may include UEs 115-a and 115-b, which may be as referenced Figure 1 Examples of UE 115 described herein. UE 115-a and 115-b may support cancellation indication 210. Wireless communication system 200 may support new radio (NR) operation and may include base station 105-a, which may be as described in reference... Figure 1 An example of the described base station 105.

[0107] In the wireless communication system 200, UE 115-a can communicate with base station 105-a via link 205-a. Base station 105-a can also communicate with UE 115-b via link 205-b. The wireless communication system 200 can support dynamic time division duplex (TDD), allowing OFDM symbols on link 205-a to be configured (e.g., semi-statically configured via RRC) as uplink, downlink, or flexible. Semi-statically configured flexible symbols can be converted to uplink or downlink via dynamic slot format indicator (SFI) or dynamic grant (e.g., DCI format 0_1, 1_1, 0_0, 1_0, 0_2, 1_2). UE 115-a can be configured to transmit or receive signals via RRC signaling on the symbol set indicated as flexible symbols. For example, UE 115-a can be configured (e.g., via RRC) to transmit the Physical Uplink Shared Channel (PUSCH) (e.g., a configured licensed PUSCH), Sound Reference Signal (SRS), Physical Uplink Control Channel (PUCCH), or Physical Random Access Channel (PRACH). In another example, UE 115-a can be configured (e.g., via RRC) to receive the Physical Downlink Shared Channel (PDSCH) or CSI-RS.

[0108] Base station 105-a can send cancellation instruction 210 to UE 115-a via link 205-a. Cancellation instruction 210 can instruct UE 115-a to cancel at least a portion of a transmission (e.g., an uplink or downlink transmission). UE 115-a can perform the procedure at MAC layer 215 or PHY layer 220, or both, as if the transmission had been performed before the cancellation instruction 210. Therefore, cancellation instruction 210 can be applied at UE 115-a after the procedures at MAC layer 215 and PHY layer 220 are completed, and can remain unchanged from the previously taken actions.

[0109] By supporting cancellation indication 210, UE 115-a can cancel at least a portion of a transmission based on receiving cancellation indication 210. In some examples, cancellation indication 210 may allow base station 105-a to schedule one or more preemptive transmissions (e.g., URLLC transmissions of UE 115-b) on resources previously allocated to lower priority transmissions (e.g., eMBB transmissions of UE 115-a). In the uplink, base station 105-a can use cancellation indication 210 (e.g., uplink cancellation indication (ULCI) or uplink preemption indication (ULPI)) to instruct UE 115-a to cancel portions of its transmissions (e.g., eMBB transmissions of UE 115-a) that overlap in time or frequency with urgent transmissions from other users (e.g., URLLC transmissions of UE 115-b).

[0110] In some cases, UE 115-a can be scheduled for full-duplex communication (i.e., scheduled for parallel transmission and reception), but UE 115-a can be restricted to half-duplex communication (i.e., transmission and reception during different time periods). Therefore, the cancellation indication 210 can be an indication of full-duplex communication at UE 115-a, meaning UE 115-a can discard communication to remain in half-duplex operation. For example, if UE 115-a receives a flexible symbol indicating a semi-static configuration that is a downlink or a flexible dynamic SFI, then UE 115-a can discard PUSCH, SRS, PRACH, or PUCCH transmissions on these symbols. In another example, if UE 115-a receives a DCI format (e.g., DCI format 0_1, 1_1, 0_0, 1_0, 0_2, 1_2) indicating that UE 115-a can receive CSI-RS or PDSCH on flexible symbols with a semi-static configuration, then UE 115-a can discard PUSCH or SRS transmissions on these symbols. In yet another example, if UE 115-a receives an indication that the flexible symbol set with a semi-static configuration is an uplink or a flexible dynamic SFI, then UE 115-a can discard PDSCH or CSI-RS reception on these symbols. In another example, if UE 115-a receives a DCI format (e.g., DCI format 0_1, 1_1, 0_0, 1_0, 0_2, 1_2) instructing UE 115-a to transmit PUSCH, PUCCH, SRS, or PRACH on at least one symbol in a semi-statically configured flexible symbol set, then UE 115-a may discard PDSCH or CSI-RS reception on that symbol set.

[0111] A cancellation indication 210 may be sent by base station 105-a before the affected transmission (e.g., eMBB PUSCH transmission) is executed. UE 115-a may cancel the overlapping portion of its transmission after receiving cancellation indication 210, so that previously scheduled transmissions do not interfere with preemptive transmissions. In the event that the original transmission is cancelled, UE 115-a may determine how the cancellation will affect the MAC layer 215 and PHY layer 220 procedures for other transmissions at UE 115-a. If UE 115-a cancels a PUSCH, SRS, PUCCH, or PRACH transmission, or if UE 115-a cancels a PDSCH or CSI-RS reception due to half-duplex constraints, then UE 115-a's behavior of sending other uplink transmissions or receiving other downlink transmissions, or performing other MAC layer 215 or PHY layer 220 procedures, may (e.g., should) not be altered by these drop events caused by cancellation indication 210. Therefore, from the perspective of these MAC layer 215 or PHY layer 220 processes, the cancelled transmission or reception is considered to have occurred.

[0112] As described herein, each transmission at UE 115-a can be associated with transmission parameters. In some examples, the transmission parameters of a transmission can be related to the transmission parameters of a previous transmission. Transmission parameters may include power control, intra-UE multiplexing, NDI counting, MAC PDU generation, etc. Cancellation indication 210 can cancel a previously scheduled transmission; however, cancellation indication 210 may not affect any other MAC layer 215 or PHY layer 220 behavior from UE 115-a. Therefore, if UE 115-a cancels a transmission (e.g., PUSCH or SRS) due to the detection of cancellation indication 210 (e.g., DCI format 2_4), UE 115-a can send or receive other transmissions as if cancellation indication 210 were not present. For example, UE 115-a can perform other MAC layer 215 or PHY layer 220 procedures that may not be affected by cancellation indication 210.

[0113] Figure 3 An example of timeline 300 supporting PHY and MAC layer operation following ULCI is shown according to aspects of this disclosure. In some examples, timeline 300 may implement aspects of wireless communication system 100 or 200, or both. Timeline 300 may occur at UE 115 and may include multiple grants 310 (e.g., uplink or downlink grants) from base station 105, wherein each grant 310 is associated with communication 315.

[0114] UE 115 can receive a cancellation instruction for at least a portion of communication 315-b. UE 115 can cancel at least a portion of communication 315-b, such as... Figure 3As indicated by the "X" in the diagram. UE 115 dropping communication 315-b can do so without affecting other MAC layer or PHY layer procedures of communication 315-a or 315-c.

[0115] In some cases, the UE 115 PHY layer procedure may include power control and PHR calculation. A cancellation indication may not affect the UE 115's calculation of the transmit power for uplink transmission. For example, communication 315-a may be associated with transmit power as a transmission parameter. Authorization 310-b may include a transmit power control parameter Δ1 for communication 315-b that may relate to the transmit power of communication 315-a. Additionally or alternatively, authorization 310-c may include a transmit power control parameter Δ2 for communication 315-c that may relate to the transmit power of both communication 315-a and 315-b. For example, the transmit power of communication 315-c may be calculated as the sum of the transmit power of communication 315-a, Δ1, and Δ2. If communication 315-b is dropped due to a cancellation indication, the cancellation indication may not affect the transmit power control accumulation of communication 315-c after the cancellation of communication 315-b. Therefore, UE 115 can accumulate the power control command Δ1 indicated in the uplink or downlink grant 310-b associated with the cancelled communication 315-b (e.g., cancelled PUSCH or cancelled SRS or both). In some examples, UE 115 can calculate a power headroom report (PHR) to include the transmit power for the cancelled communication (e.g., communication 315-b).

[0116] In another example, the UE 115 PHY layer procedure may include NDI counting. Cancellation indication may not affect the UE 115's behavior in determining when the NDI indicator is switched. For example, communication 315-a may be associated with an NDI value (e.g., 0) as a transmission parameter. Authorization 310-b may include an NDI value (e.g., 1) for communication 315-b indicating the presence of new data, which can be determined with respect to the NDI value of communication 315-a. Furthermore, authorization 310-c may include an NDI value (e.g., 1) for communication 315-c indicating the absence of new data, which can be determined with respect to the NDI value of communication 315-b. If UE 115 detects a cancellation indication for communication 315-b (e.g., PUSCH), where communication 315-b is scheduled by grant 310-b (e.g., an uplink grant with a HARQ process ID and a first NDI value), and UE 115 detects grant 310-c (e.g., a second uplink grant) scheduling communication 315-c (e.g., a second PUSCH with a HARQ process ID and a second NDI value), and no other uplink grant with a HARQ process ID is received between grants 310-b and 310-c, then UE 115 can determine whether the NDI of grant 310-c is switched based on the NDI value of grant 310-b. For example, if the NDI value of grant 310-c (e.g., 1) is equal to the NDI value of grant 310-b (e.g., 1), then the NDI of grant 310-c is not switched. Otherwise, if the NDI of authorization 310-c is not equal to the NDI value of authorization 310-b, then the NDI of authorization 310-c is switched. Therefore, even if communication 315-b is cancelled, the NDI of authorization 310-b can still be used to determine the NDI status of future communications with the same HARQ process ID.

[0117] In another example, the UE 115 MAC layer procedure may include MAC PDU generation and HARQ buffer management. If a new transport block (TB) is scheduled by grant 310-b, the MAC layer can process grant 310-b by generating a PDU and TB, clearing the HARQ buffer and filling the new TB, and determining the buffer status report (BSR) for the data buffer. A cancellation indication received by UE 115 may not affect the behavior of UE 115 in generating MAC PDUs and managing the HARQ buffer for the corresponding HARQ process. For example, if a new transport block (TB) is generated due to the receipt of grant 310-b, UE 115 may keep the new TB in the HARQ buffer. The buffer status may be determined based on the execution (e.g., transmission) of communication 315-b corresponding to grant 310-b. The MAC layer may rely on lower layers (e.g., the PHY layer) to retransmit the TB to compensate for communication 315-b (e.g., PUSCH) transmissions cancelled due to the cancellation indication.

[0118] In another example, the UE 115 PHY layer procedure may include determining multiple PDSCH receptions or PUSCH transmissions supported in a time slot at UE 115. In the event that some PDSCH receptions or PUSCH transmissions are cancelled due to half-duplex constraints, the cancelled PDSCH receptions or PUSCH transmissions may be counted as supported PDSCH receptions or PUSCH transmissions in the time slot for capability purposes. For example, if communication 315 is a PUSCH transmission, and UE 115 reports the capability of three PUSCH transmissions in a time slot, then in the case where communication 315-b is cancelled by a cancellation indication, UE 115 is not expected to send additional PUSCH regarding the originally scheduled PUSCH transmission until the cancellation indication is received.

[0119] Figure 4A and Figure 4B An example of timeline 400 supporting the operation of the PHY and MAC layers after ULCI according to aspects of this disclosure is shown. In some examples, timeline 400 may implement aspects of wireless communication systems 100 or 200, or both. Timeline 400 may occur at UE 115 and may include multiple communications 415.

[0120] Figure 4AA timeline 400-a is shown that may include multiple communications 415, and in some cases, communications 415 may be on different component carriers (CCs) that are at least partially overlapping in time. In this example, a cancellation indication for canceling at least a portion of communication 415-a may be received; however, this cancellation indication may not affect the behavior of UE 115 in calculating PHR. For example, if UE 115 is scheduled to transmit two communications 415-a and 415-b (e.g., two PUSCHs) on two corresponding CCs, and UE 115 cancels communication 415-a due to the detection of a cancellation indication, the PHR in communication 415 is calculated by ignoring the cancellation indication and by taking into account the power of both communication 415-a and 415-b, which includes the canceled communication 415-a.

[0121] In another example, UE 115 may have downlink-uplink scheduling conflicts, for example, communication 415-a may be a dynamically scheduled uplink transmission and communication 415-b may be a semi-statically configured downlink transmission. In this example, UE 115 can cancel communication 415-b (e.g., a semi-statically configured downlink transmission (e.g., semi-persistent scheduling (SPS) or CSI-RS)) by receiving another dynamically scheduled communication 415-a (e.g., PUSCH or A-SRS). In some cases, dynamically scheduled communication 415-a may be canceled due to a cancellation indication. In this case, UE 115 is not expected to receive the previously semi-statically configured communication 415-b (e.g., a downlink transmission). For example, if dynamically scheduled communication 415-a is canceled due to a cancellation indication, UE 115 may not change the previous cancellation of communication 415-b for the downlink-uplink scheduling conflict based on the cancellation indication that resolves the downlink-uplink scheduling conflict.

[0122] Figure 4BTimeline 400-b is shown, which may include authorization 410 and multiple communications 415-c and 415-d. Authorization 410 may be associated with communication 415-c. In some cases, UE 115 may have authorization (CG) and dynamic authorization (DG) conflicts configured for communications 415-c and 415-d. If communication 415-c is scheduled by DG (e.g., PUSCH), UE 115 may cancel communication 415-d scheduled by CG (e.g., PUSCH). In some examples, UE 115 may subsequently receive a cancellation indication to cancel communication 415-c (e.g., DG PUSCH). In this example, UE 115 is also not expected to send communication 415-d (e.g., at CG timing). For example, if dynamically scheduled communication 415-c is canceled due to a cancellation indication, UE 115 may not change the previous cancellation of communication 415-d for CG and DG conflicts based on the cancellation indication resolving the CG and DG conflict.

[0123] Figure 5 An example of a processing flow 500 supporting PHY and MAC layer operation following ULCI according to aspects of this disclosure is shown. In some examples, processing flow 500 may implement aspects of wireless communication system 100 or 200 or both.

[0124] In the following description of processing flow 500, the operations of UE 115-c and base station 105-b may occur in a sequence different from the exemplary sequence shown. Some of the operations shown may also be excluded from processing flow 500, or other operations may be added to processing flow 500. It should be understood that although UE 115-c and base station 105-b are shown performing multiple operations of processing flow 500, any wireless device can perform the operations shown.

[0127] In 515, UE 115-c can determine the transmission parameters of at least one of the first transmission or the second transmission based at least in part on the first authorization and the second authorization.

[0128] At 520, base station 105-b can identify a third transmission (e.g., a full-duplex or URLLC transmission) that at least partially overlaps with the first transmission, and base station 105-b can generate a cancellation indication based on the third transmission.

[0129] At 525, base station 105-b can transmit and UE 115-c can receive an indication that UE 115-c at least partially cancels the first transmission associated with the authorization received at 505.

[0130] At 530, UE 115-c may discard at least a portion of the first transmission based at least in part on the indication received at 525.

[0131] At 535, UE 115-c may determine transmission parameters for at least one of the first or second transmissions based at least in part on the first transmission parameters and / or without discarding the first transmission. In some cases, this may include determining to use the parameters determined at 515 or to avoid changing the parameters determined at 515.

[0132] At 535, UE 115-c can perform or receive a second transmission based on the second transmission parameters determined at 510 or 530.

[0133] Figure 6 An example of a processing flow 600 supporting PHY and MAC layer operation following ULCI according to aspects of this disclosure is shown. In some examples, processing flow 600 may implement aspects of wireless communication system 100 or 200 or both. Processing flow 600 is shown as being implemented by UE 115-d, which may be as described regarding Figure 1 and Figure 2 An example of the described UE 115. For example, UE 115-d could be... Figure 2 An example of UE 115-a. Processing flow 600 is also shown as being implemented by base station 105-c, which can be as follows: Figure 1 and Figure 2 An example of the described base station 105. For example, base station 105-c could be... Figure 2 Example of base station 105-a.

[0134] In the following description of processing flow 600, the operations of UE 115-d and base station 105-c may occur in a sequence different from the exemplary sequence shown. Some of the operations shown may also be excluded from processing flow 600, or other operations may be added to processing flow 600. It should be understood that although UE 115-d and base station 105-c are shown performing multiple operations of processing flow 600, any wireless device can perform the operations shown.

[0135] At 605, base station 105-c can send and UE 115-d can receive authorization for a first transmission scheduled for a first resource set, the first transmission being associated with first transmission parameters.

[0136] At 610, base station 105-c can transmit and UE 115-d can receive authorization for a second transmission scheduled for a second resource set that overlaps with the first resource set, the first transmission being associated with the first transmission parameters.

[0137] At 615, UE 115-d may discard at least a portion of the first transmission associated with the authorization received at 605 based on the second authorization and resource set overlap received at 610.

[0138] At 620, base station 105-c can identify a third transmission (e.g., a full-duplex or URLLC transmission) that at least partially overlaps with the first transmission, and base station 105-c can generate a cancellation indication based on the third transmission.

[0139] At 625, base station 105-b can transmit and UE 115-c can receive an indication that the UE at least partially cancels the second transmission associated with the authorization received at 610.

[0140] At 630, UE 115-d may discard at least a portion of the second transmission based on an instruction received at 625.

[0141] At 635, UE 115-d can avoid rescheduling the first transmission dropped at 615 based on the instruction received at 625 and without the second transmission being dropped at 630.

[0142] Figure 7 A block diagram 700 of a device 705 supporting PHY and MAC layer operation after ULCI is shown according to aspects of this disclosure.

The receiver 710 may utilize a single antenna or an antenna set.

[0144] Communication manager 715 can receive an authorization for a first transmission scheduled for a first resource set, the first transmission being associated with first transmission parameters; receive an instruction from a UE to at least partially cancel the first transmission; discard at least a portion of the first transmission based on the received instruction; determine second transmission parameters for a second transmission based on the first transmission parameters and independent of discarding the first transmission; and perform or receive the second transmission according to the second transmission parameters.

For example, transmitter 720 can be a reference. Figure 10 Examples of aspects of the transceiver 1020 described. The transmitter 720 may utilize a single antenna or an array of antennas.

[0148] Figure 8 A block diagram 800 of a device 805 supporting PHY and MAC layer operation after ULCI is shown according to aspects of this disclosure.

[0149] Receiver 810 can receive information such as packets, user data, or control information associated with various information channels (e.g., control channels, data channels, and information related to the operation of the PHY and MAC layers after ULCI). This information can be passed to other components of device 805. Receiver 810 can serve as a reference. Figure 10 Examples of aspects of the transceiver 1020 described. The receiver 810 may utilize a single antenna or an antenna set.

[0150] Communication manager 815 may be an example of an aspect of communication manager 715 as described herein. Communication manager 815 may include a first authorization manager 820, a cancellation indication component 825, a transmission drop controller 830, a transmission parameter manager 835, a transmission actuator 840, a second authorization manager 845, a conflict resolution component 850, and a rescheduling controller 855. Communication manager 815 may be an example of an aspect of communication manager 1010 described herein.

[0151] The first authorization manager 820 can receive authorization for a first transmission scheduled for a first resource set, the first transmission being associated with first transmission parameters. The cancellation indication component 825 can receive an indication from the UE to at least partially cancel the first transmission.

[0152] The first authorization manager 820 can receive a first authorization for a first transmission scheduled for a first resource set. The second authorization manager 845 can receive a second authorization for a second transmission scheduled for a second resource set overlapping with the first resource set. The conflict resolution component 850 can discard at least a portion of the first transmission based on the receipt of the second authorization. The cancellation indication component 825 can receive an indication from the UE to at least partially cancel the second transmission. The transmission discard controller 830 can discard at least a portion of the second transmission based on the received indication. The rescheduling controller 855 can avoid rescheduling the first transmission on the first resource set based on the received indication and without discarding the second transmission.

[0153] Transmitter 860 can transmit signals generated by other components of device 805. In some examples, transmitter 860 can be co-located with receiver 810 in a transceiver module. For example, transmitter 860 can be a reference. Figure 10 Examples of aspects of the transceiver 1020 described. The transmitter 860 may utilize a single antenna or a set of antennas.

[0154] Figure 9 A block diagram 900 of a communication manager 905 supporting PHY and MAC layer operation after ULCI, according to aspects of this disclosure, is shown. The communication manager 905 may be an example of aspects of the communication manager 715, communication manager 815, or communication manager 1010 described herein. The communication manager 905 may include a first authorization manager 910, a cancellation indication component 915, a transmission drop controller 920, a transmission parameter manager 925, a transmission actuator 930, a transmit power calculator 935, a power margin calculator 940, an NDI controller 945, a PDU generator 950, a data buffer status component 955, a HARQ buffer manager 960, a transmission block manager 965, a data buffer manager 970, a capacity reporter 975, a second authorization manager 980, a conflict resolution component 985, and a rescheduling controller 990. Each of these modules may communicate with each other directly or indirectly (e.g., via one or more buses).

[0155] The first grant manager 910 can receive grants for a first transmission scheduled for a first resource set, the first transmission being associated with first transmission parameters. In some examples, the first grant manager 910 can receive first grants for a first transmission scheduled for a first resource set. In some cases, the UE is configured for half-duplex communication, and the grant includes radio resource control signaling for a flexible symbol set. In some cases, the first transmission includes a physical uplink shared channel, a physical uplink control channel, a physical random access channel, a sounding reference signal, a physical downlink shared channel, or a channel state information reference signal.

[0156] The cancellation indication component 915 can receive an indication from the UE that it has at least partially cancelled a first transmission. In some examples, the cancellation indication component 915 can receive an indication from the UE that it has at least partially cancelled a second transmission. In some cases, the indication includes a timeslot format indicator or downlink control information. In some cases, the indication includes an uplink cancellation indication.

[0157] The transmission drop controller 920 may drop at least a portion of a first transmission based on a received instruction. In some examples, the transmission drop controller 920 may drop at least a portion of a second transmission based on a received instruction.

[0158] The transmission parameter manager 925 can determine the second transmission parameters for the second transmission based on the first transmission parameters and without discarding the first transmission.

[0159] The transmission actuator 930 may perform or receive a second transmission based on second transmission parameters. In some examples, performing or receiving a second transmission may be based on a determined switching state of a new data indicator for the second transmission. In some examples, the transmission actuator 930 may perform or receive a second transmission based on a capability report according to the second transmission parameters, independent of discarding the first transmission. In some cases, the first and second transmissions include uplink transmissions, or the first and second transmissions include downlink transmissions.

[0160] In some examples, the transmission actuator 930 can cancel the reception of the first transmission regardless of discarding the second transmission. In some examples, the transmission actuator 930 can cancel the transmission of the first transmission regardless of discarding the second transmission. In some cases, the first transmission includes a semi-statically configured downlink transmission, and the second transmission includes a dynamically scheduled uplink transmission.
