Field of the technology

[0003] The following generally relates to wireless communication and, more specifically, to cancellation of transmission occasions. Background art

[0004] Wireless communication systems are widely deployed to provide various types of communication content, such as voice, video, packet data, messaging, broadcasting, etc. These systems are capable of supporting communication with multiple users by sharing available system resources (e.g., time, frequency, and power). Examples of such multi - access systems include fourth - generation (4G) systems, such as Long - Term Evolution (LTE) systems, LTE - Advanced (LTE - A) systems, or LTE - A Pro systems, and fifth - generation (5G) systems that 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 Spread Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing (DFT - S - OFDM). A wireless multi - access communication system may include one or more base stations or one or more network access nodes, each of which simultaneously supports communication of multiple communication devices, which may also be referred to as user equipment (UE).

[0005] A UE may communicate with a base station in a configured transmission occasion. For example, a base station may employ a semi - persistent scheduling (SPS) configuration for downlink transmission to a UE, or the base station may employ a configured grant (CG) configuration for uplink transmission from the UE. Summary of the invention

[0006] The described techniques relate to improved methods, systems, devices, and apparatuses that support cancellation of transmission opportunities. Generally, the described techniques enable a base station to dynamically cancel and reschedule configured transmission opportunities for communicating with a user equipment (UE). The transmission opportunities may be configured according to semi-persistent scheduling (SPS) configurations (e.g., for downlink transmissions) or configured grant (CG) configurations (e.g., for uplink transmissions). The base station may send a dynamic grant to the UE that indicates cancellation of a transmission opportunity and schedules a dynamic transmission opportunity for communicating data that was scheduled to be transmitted at the cancelled transmission opportunity. In some examples, the cancellation may be explicit, where the grant includes one or more bits identifying the cancelled transmission opportunity. Additionally or alternatively, the cancellation may be implicit. For example, the base station may determine a procedure identifier for the cancelled transmission opportunity. When scheduling the dynamic transmission opportunity, the dynamic grant may indicate the procedure identifier. Based on the indicated procedure identifier, the UE may determine that a configured transmission opportunity having the indicated procedure identifier will be cancelled and that data scheduled to be transmitted at the cancelled transmission opportunity is rescheduled to be transmitted at the dynamic transmission opportunity.

[0059] A user equipment (UE) in a wireless communication system can communicate with one or more network nodes such as a base station. The communication can include a downlink transmission from the base station to the UE and an uplink transmission from the UE to the base station.

[0060] In some examples, the base station can configure a set of transmission opportunities for communicating with the UE to improve resource efficiency. For example, the base station can configure resources for downlink transmission to the UE according to a semi-persistent scheduling (SPS) configuration. The downlink transmission can include data transmission such as a physical downlink shared channel (PDSCH) transmission. Additionally or alternatively, the base station can configure resources for uplink transmission from the UE according to a configured grant (CG) configuration. The uplink transmission can include data transmission such as a physical uplink shared channel (PUSCH) transmission. The base station can configure a set of transmission opportunities with periodicity and offset according to the SPS configuration or the CG configuration. If a data transmission (e.g., downlink transmission or uplink transmission) fails in the configured transmission opportunity, the base station can send a dynamic grant scheduling a dynamic transmission opportunity for retransmitting the data.

[0061] In some examples, a wireless communication system can include multiple UEs configured with SPS or CG resources. Based on the periodicity of the SPS or CG resources, the transmission opportunity configuration can affect the system's ability to adapt to transmissions with different priorities. For example, the base station can determine that at a configured transmission opportunity, a first UE is scheduled for a first communication in a set of resources. The base station can also determine that a second communication with a second UE has a higher priority than the first communication with the first UE. In some examples, the base station can multiplex the first communication and the second communication. However, for example, in a case where the beams associated with the transmissions may point in different directions, multiplexing the communications may not be effective. In some examples, the base station can determine to adjust the beam configuration to perform the second communication with the second UE (e.g., the communication with higher priority). However, if the base station does not notify the first UE of the adjustment, the first UE may attempt to perform the first communication and fail, which can reduce the communication reliability and power efficiency at the first UE.

[0062] According to the techniques described herein, a base station may dynamically cancel and reschedule a transmission opportunity configured for communicating with a UE. The transmission opportunity may be configured according to an SPS configuration (e.g., for downlink transmission) or a CG configuration (e.g., for uplink transmission). The base station may send a dynamic grant to the UE, the dynamic grant indicating the cancellation of the transmission opportunity and scheduling a dynamic transmission opportunity for communicating data that was scheduled for transmission at the cancelled transmission opportunity.

[0063] In some examples, the cancellation may be explicit, where the grant includes one or more bits identifying the cancelled transmission opportunity. Additionally or alternatively, the cancellation may be implicit. For example, the base station may determine a process identifier (e.g., a hybrid automatic repeat request (HARQ) process identifier) for the cancelled transmission opportunity. When scheduling the dynamic transmission opportunity, the dynamic grant may indicate the process identifier. Based on the indicated process identifier, the UE may determine that the configured transmission opportunity having the indicated process identifier will be cancelled and that the data scheduled for transmission at the cancelled transmission opportunity is rescheduled for transmission at the dynamic transmission opportunity.

[0064] Aspects of the present disclosure are initially described in the context of a wireless communication system. Then example transmission schemes and example process flows are described. Aspects of the present disclosure are further illustrated and described with reference to apparatus diagrams, system diagrams, and flowcharts related to the cancellation of transmission opportunities.

[0065] Figure 1 FIG. 100 illustrates an example of a wireless communication system 100 according to aspects of the present disclosure. 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 LTE-Advanced (LTE-A) network, an LTE-A Pro network, or a New Radio (NR) network. In some examples, the wireless communication system 100 may support enhanced broadband communication, ultra-reliable (e.g., mission-critical) communication, low-latency communication, communication with low-cost and low-complexity devices, or any combination thereof.

[0066] The base stations 105 may be spread across a geographic area to form the wireless communication system 100 and may be devices in different forms or having different capabilities. The base stations 105 and the UEs 115 may communicate wirelessly via one or more communication links 125. Each base station 105 may provide a coverage area 110 over which the UEs 115 and the base stations 105 may establish one or more communication links 125. The coverage area 110 may be an example of a geographic area over which the base stations 105 and the UEs 115 may support communication of signals according to one or more radio access technologies.

[0067] UE 115 can be scattered in the coverage area 110 of the wireless communication system 100, and each UE 115 can be stationary, mobile, or both at different times. UE 115 can be devices in different forms or with different capabilities. Figure 1 Some example UEs 115 are illustrated therein. The UEs 115 described herein are capable of communicating with various types of devices, such as other UEs 115, base stations 105, or network devices (e.g., core network nodes, relay devices, integrated access and backhaul (IAB) nodes, or other network devices), as Figure 1 shown.

[0068] Base stations 105 can communicate with the core network 130, or with each other, or both. For example, base stations 105 can interface with the core network 130 via one or more backhaul links 120 (e.g., via s1, N2, N3, or other interfaces). Base stations 105 can communicate with each other directly (e.g., directly between base stations 105) or indirectly (e.g., via the core network 130) or both via backhaul links 120 (e.g., via X2, Xn, or other interfaces). In some examples, the backhaul links 120 can be or include one or more wireless links.

[0069] One or more of the base stations 105 described herein can include or can be referred to by those of ordinary skill in the art as base transceiver stations, radio base stations, access points, radio transceivers, NodeB, eNodeB (eNB), next-generation NodeB, or gigabit NodeB (any of which can be referred to as gNB), home NodeB, home eNodeB, or other suitable terms.

[0070] UE 115 can include or can be referred to as a mobile device, wireless device, remote device, handheld device, or subscriber device, or some other suitable term, where "device" can also be referred to as unit, station, terminal, or client, etc. UE 115 can also include or can be referred to as a personal electronic device, such as a cellular phone, personal digital assistant (PDA), tablet computer, laptop computer, or personal computer. In some examples, UE 115 can include or can be referred to as a wireless local loop (WLL) station, Internet of Things (IoT) device, Internet of Everything (IoE) device, or machine type communication (MTC) device, etc., which can be implemented in various objects such as appliances or vehicles, meters, etc.

[0071] The UEs 115 described herein are capable of communicating with various types of devices, such as other UEs 115 that can sometimes act as relays, as well as base stations 105 and network devices including macro eNB or GNB, small cell eNB or GNB, or relay base stations, etc., as Figure 1 shown.

[0072] UE 115 and the base station 105 can communicate wirelessly with each other via one or more carriers over one or more communication links 125. The term "carrier" can refer to a set of radio frequency spectrum resources having a defined physical layer structure for supporting the communication link 125. For example, a carrier for the communication link 125 can include a portion (e.g., a bandwidth part (BWP)) of a radio spectrum band operating according to one or more physical layer channels of a given radio access technology (e.g., LTE, LTE-A, LTE-A Pro, NR). Each physical layer channel can carry acquisition signaling (e.g., synchronization signals, system information), control signaling for coordinating carrier operation, user data, or other signaling. The wireless communication system 100 can use carrier aggregation or multi-carrier operation to support communication with the UE 115. According to a carrier aggregation configuration, the UE 115 can be configured with multiple downlink component carriers and one or more uplink component carriers. Carrier aggregation can be used with frequency division duplex (FDD) and time division duplex (TDD) component carriers.

[0073] The communication link 125 shown in the wireless communication system 100 can include an uplink transmission from the UE 115 to the base station 105, or a downlink transmission from the base station 105 to the UE 115. A carrier can carry downlink or uplink communication (e.g., in FDD mode), or can be configured to carry both downlink and uplink communication (e.g., in TDD mode).

[0074] The signal waveform transmitted on a carrier can be composed of multiple subcarriers (e.g., using multi-carrier modulation (MCM) techniques such as orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) or discrete Fourier transform spread OFDM (DFT-S-OFDM)). In a system employing MCM techniques, a resource element can consist of a symbol period (e.g., the duration of a modulation symbol) and a subcarrier, where the symbol period and the 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 UE 115 receives and the higher the order of the modulation scheme, the higher the data rate of the UE 115. Wireless communication resources can refer to a combination of radio frequency spectrum resources, time resources, and spatial resources (e.g., spatial layers or beams), and the use of multiple spatial layers can further increase the data rate or data integrity of communication with the UE 115.

[0075] The time interval of the base station 105 or the UE 115 can be expressed as a multiple of a basic time unit, which can, for example, refer to T s = 1 / (Δf max ·N f) sampling period in seconds, where Δf max may represent the maximum supported subcarrier spacing, and N f may represent the maximum supported discrete Fourier transform (DFT) size. The time interval of the communication resources may be organized according to radio frames, each radio frame having a specified duration (e.g., 10 milliseconds (ms)). Each radio frame may be identified by a system frame number (SFN) (e.g., ranging from 0 to 1023).

[0076] Each frame may include a plurality of 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 a plurality of 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 a plurality of symbol periods (e.g., depending on the length of the cyclic prefix pre-added to each symbol period). In some wireless communication systems 100, a time slot may be further divided into a plurality of mini-slots containing one or more symbols. In addition to the cyclic prefix, each symbol period may include one or more (e.g., N f ones) sampling periods. The duration of the symbol period may depend on the subcarrier spacing or the operating frequency band.

[0077] A subframe, time slot, mini-slot, or symbol may be the smallest scheduling unit (e.g., in the time domain) of the wireless communication system 100 and may be referred to as a transmission time interval (TTI). In some examples, the TTI duration (e.g., the number of symbol periods in the TTI) may be variable. Additionally or alternatively, the smallest scheduling unit of the wireless communication system 100 may be dynamically selected (e.g., in a burst of shortened TTIs (sTTIs)).

[0078] Physical channels can be multiplexed on a carrier according to various techniques. For example, one or more of time division multiplexing (TDM) techniques, frequency division multiplexing (FDM) techniques, or hybrid TDM-FDM techniques can be used to multiplex physical control channels and physical data channels on a downlink carrier. The control region of the physical control channel (e.g., control resource set (CORESET)) can be defined by multiple symbol periods and can extend across the system bandwidth of the carrier or a subset of the system bandwidth. One or more control regions (e.g., CORESET) can be configured for the set of UEs 115. For example, one or more UEs 115 can monitor or search for control information in the control region according to one or more search space sets, and each search space set can include one or more control channel candidates in one or more aggregation levels arranged in a cascaded manner. The aggregation level of a control channel candidate can refer to the number of control channel resources (e.g., control channel elements (CCE)) associated with the coded information of a control information format having a given payload size. The search space set can include a common search space set configured to deliver control information to multiple UEs 115 and a UE-specific search space set for sending control information to a specific UE 115.

[0079] In some examples, the base station 105 can be movable and thus provide communication coverage for a mobile geographic coverage area 110. In some examples, different geographic coverage areas 110 associated with different technologies can overlap, but different geographic coverage areas 110 can be supported by the same base station 105. In other examples, overlapping geographic coverage areas 110 associated with different technologies can be supported by different base stations 105. The wireless communication system 100 can include, for example, a heterogeneous network in which different types of base stations 105 provide coverage for various geographic coverage areas 110 using the same or different radio access technologies.

[0080] Some UEs 115 can be configured to operate in power-saving modes, such as half-duplex communication (e.g., a mode that supports one-way communication via transmission or reception but does not support simultaneous transmission and reception). In some examples, half-duplex communication can be performed at a reduced peak rate. Other power-saving techniques for UEs 115 include entering a power-saving deep sleep mode when not participating in active communication, operating on limited bandwidth (e.g., according to narrowband communication), or a combination of these techniques. For example, some UEs 115 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, in a guard band of the carrier, or outside the carrier.

[0081] The wireless communication system 100 may be configured to support ultra-reliable communication or low-latency communication, or various combinations thereof. For example, the wireless communication system 100 may be configured to support ultra-reliable low-latency communication (URLLC) or mission-critical communication. The UE 115 may be designed to support ultra-reliable, low-latency, or critical functions (e.g., mission-critical functions). Ultra-reliable communication may include private communication or group communication and may 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 may include prioritization of services, and mission-critical services may be used for public safety or general commercial applications. The terms ultra-reliable, low-latency, mission-critical, and ultra-reliable low-latency may be used interchangeably herein.

[0082] In some examples, the UE 115 is also capable of directly communicating with other UEs 115 via a device-to-device (D2D) communication link 135 (e.g., using a peer-to-peer (P2P) or D2D protocol). One or more UEs 115 utilizing D2D communication may be within the geographical coverage area 110 of the base station 105. Other UEs 115 in such a group may be outside the geographical coverage area 110 of the base station 105 or may not be able to receive transmissions from the base station 105. In some examples, a group of UEs 115 communicating via D2D communication may utilize a one-to-many (1:M) system, where each UE 115 transmits to each other UE 115 in the group. In some examples, the base station 105 facilitates resource scheduling for D2D communication. In other cases, D2D communication is performed between UEs 115 without involving the base station 105.

[0083] The core network 130 may provide user authentication, access approval, tracking, Internet Protocol (IP) connectivity, and other access, routing, or mobility functions. The core network 130 may be an evolved packet core (EPC) or a 5G core (5GC), which may include at least one control plane entity that manages access and mobility (e.g., a mobility management entity (MME), an access and mobility management function (AMF)) and at least one user plane entity that routes packets or interconnects to an external network (e.g., a serving gateway (S-GW), a packet data network (PDN) gateway (P-GW), or a user plane function (UPF)). The control plane entity may manage non-access stratum (NAS) functions of the UE 115 served by the base station 105 associated with the core network 130, such as mobility, authentication, and bearer management. User IP packets may be transmitted through the user plane entity, which may provide IP address allocation and other functions. The user plane entity may be connected to the network operator IP services 150. The operator IP services 150 may include access to the Internet, an intranet, an IP multimedia subsystem (IMS), or packet switched streaming services.

[0084] Some network devices, such as the base station 105, may include subcomponents, such as an access network entity 140, which may be an example of an access node controller (ANC). Each access network entity 140 may communicate with the UE 115 through one or more other access network transmission entities 145, which may be referred to as radio heads, intelligent radio heads, or transmit / receive points (Trps). Each access network transmission entity 145 may include one or more antenna panels. In some configurations, the various functions of each access network entity 140 or the 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., the base station 105).

[0085] The wireless communication system 100 may operate using one or more frequency bands, typically in the range of 300 megahertz (MHz) to 300 gigahertz (GHz). Generally, the region from 300 MHz to 300 GHz is referred to as the ultra-high frequency (UHF) region or the decimeter band because the wavelength range is from approximately 1 decimeter to 1 meter in length. UHF waves may be blocked or redirected by buildings and environmental features, but these waves can penetrate structures sufficiently to enable a macro cell to serve a UE 115 located indoors. Compared to transmissions at smaller frequencies and longer wavelengths using the high frequency (HF) or very high frequency (VHF) portions of the spectrum below 300 MHz, UHF wave transmissions may be associated with smaller antennas and shorter ranges (e.g., less than 100 kilometers).

[0086] The wireless communication system 100 can utilize licensed and unlicensed radio frequency spectrum bands. For example, the wireless communication system 100 can employ licensed-assisted access (LAA), LTE-unlicensed (LTE-U) radio access technology, or NR technology in an unlicensed band such as the 5 GHz industrial, scientific, and medical (ISM) band. When operating in an unlicensed radio spectrum band, devices such as the base station 105 and the UE 115 can employ carrier sensing for collision detection and avoidance. In some examples, operation in the unlicensed band can be based on a carrier aggregation configuration and component carriers operating in a licensed band (e.g., LAA). Operation in the unlicensed spectrum can include downlink transmission, uplink transmission, P2P transmission, or D2D transmission, etc.

[0087] The base station 105 or the UE 115 can be equipped with multiple antennas, which can be used to employ techniques such as transmit diversity, receive diversity, multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) communication, or beamforming. The antennas of the base station 105 or the UE 115 can be located within one or more antenna arrays or antenna panels, which can support MIMO operation or transmit or receive beamforming. For example, one or more base station antennas or antenna arrays can be juxtaposed at an antenna assembly, such as an antenna tower. In some examples, the antennas or antenna arrays associated with the base station 105 can be located at different geographical locations. The base station 105 can have an antenna array having multiple rows and columns of antenna ports, which the base station 105 can use to support beamforming for communication with the UE 115. Similarly, the UE 115 can have one or more antenna arrays, which can support various MIMO or beamforming operations. Additionally or alternatively, the antenna panel can support radio frequency beamforming of signals transmitted via the antenna ports.

[0088] The base station 105 or the UE 115 can use MIMO communication to utilize multipath signal propagation and improve spectral efficiency by transmitting 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 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 transmitted to the same receiving device, and in multi-user MIMO, multiple spatial layers are transmitted to multiple devices.

[0089] Beamforming, which may also be referred to as spatial filtering, directional transmission, or directional reception, is a signal processing technique that can be used at a transmitting device or a receiving device (e.g., base station 105, UE 115) to shape or manipulate an antenna beam (e.g., a transmit beam, a receive beam) along a spatial path between the transmitting device and the receiving device. Beamforming can be achieved by combining signals communicated via the antenna elements of an antenna array such that some signals propagating in a particular direction relative to the antenna array experience constructive interference while other signals experience destructive interference. The adjustment of the signals communicated via the antenna elements can include the transmitting device or the receiving device applying an amplitude offset, a phase offset, or both to the signals carried via the antenna elements associated with the device. The adjustment associated with each antenna unit can be defined by a set of beamforming weights associated with a particular direction (e.g., relative to the antenna array of the transmitting device or the receiving device, or relative to some other direction).

[0090] The base station 105 or the UE 115 can use beam scanning techniques as part of beamforming operations. For example, the base station 105 can use multiple antennas or antenna arrays (e.g., antenna panels) to perform beamforming operations for directional communication with the UE 115. Some signals (e.g., synchronization signals, reference signals, beam selection signals, or other control signals) can be transmitted by the base station 105 multiple times in different directions. For example, the base station 105 can transmit signals according to different sets of beamforming weights associated with different transmission directions. Transmissions in different beam directions can be used to identify (e.g., by a transmitting device such as the base station 105, or by a receiving device such as the UE 115) the beam direction for later transmission or reception by the base station 105.

[0091] Some signals, such as data signals associated with a particular receiving device, can be transmitted by the base station 105 in a single beam direction (e.g., the direction associated with the receiving device, e.g., UE 115). In some examples, the beam direction associated with a transmission along a single beam direction can be determined based on signals transmitted in one or more beam directions. For example, the UE 115 can receive one or more signals transmitted by the base station 105 in different directions and can report to the base station 105 an indication of the signal that the UE 115 receives with the highest signal quality or other acceptable signal quality.

[0092] In some examples, transmissions of a device (e.g., base station 105 or UE 115) can be performed using multiple beam directions, and the device can 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 can report feedback indicating precoding weights for one or more beam directions, and the feedback can correspond to a configured number of beams across the system bandwidth or one or more subbands. Base station 105 can transmit reference signals (e.g., cell-specific reference signal (CRS), channel state information reference signal (CSI-RS)), which can be precoded or unencoded. UE 115 can provide feedback for beam selection, which can be a precoding matrix indicator (PMI) or codebook-based feedback (e.g., multi-panel type codebook, linear combination type codebook, port selection type codebook). Although the techniques are described with reference to signals transmitted by base station 105 in one or more directions, UE 115 can employ similar techniques to transmit signals multiple times in different directions (e.g., for identifying beam directions for subsequent transmission or reception by UE 115) or to transmit signals in a single direction (e.g., for transmitting data to a receiving device).

[0093] When receiving various signals such as synchronization signals, reference signals, beam selection signals, or other control signals from base station 105, a receiving device (e.g., UE 115) can attempt multiple receiving configurations (e.g., directional listening). For example, the receiving device can attempt multiple receiving directions by receiving via different antenna subarrays, by processing received signals according to different antenna subarrays, by receiving according to different sets of receive beamforming weights (e.g., different directional listening weight sets) applied to signals received at multiple antenna elements of an antenna array, or by processing received signals according to different sets of receive beamforming weights applied to signals received at multiple antenna elements of an antenna array, according to different receiving configurations or receiving directions, any of which can be referred to as "listening". In some examples, the receiving device can use a single receiving configuration to receive along a single beam direction (e.g., when receiving a data signal). Depending on the different receiving configuration directions (e.g., based on the beam direction determined to have the highest signal strength, highest signal-to-noise ratio (SNR), or other acceptable signal quality based on listening across multiple beam directions), the single receiving configuration can be aligned in the beam direction determined based on listening.

[0094] The wireless communication system 100 can be a packet-based network operating according to a layered protocol stack. In the user plane, the communication of 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 over logical channels. The Media Access Control (MAC) layer can perform priority handling and multiplex logical channels into transport channels. The MAC layer can also use error detection techniques, error correction techniques, or both to support retransmissions 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 the RRC connection between the UE 115 and the base station 105 or the core network 130 that supports the radio bearers for user plane data. In the physical layer, the transport channels can be mapped to physical channels.

[0095] The UE 115 and the base station 105 can support retransmissions of data to increase the likelihood of successful data reception. HARQ feedback is a technique for increasing the likelihood of correctly receiving data over the 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)). Under poor radio conditions (e.g., low signal-to-noise ratio conditions), HARQ can improve the throughput of the MAC layer. In some examples, a device can support HARQ feedback for the same time slot, where the device can provide HARQ feedback for data received in the previous symbol in a particular time slot. In other cases, the device can provide HARQ feedback in a subsequent time slot or according to some other time interval.

[0096] According to the techniques described herein, the base station 105 can dynamically cancel and reschedule the configured transmission opportunities for communicating with the UE 115. The transmission opportunities can be configured according to SPS configuration (e.g., for downlink transmission) or CG configuration (e.g., for uplink transmission). The base station 105 can send a dynamic grant to the UE 115 that indicates the cancellation of the transmission opportunity and schedules a dynamic transmission opportunity to communicate the data that was scheduled to be transmitted at the cancelled transmission opportunity. In some examples, the cancellation can be explicit, where the grant includes one or more bits identifying the cancelled transmission opportunity. Additionally or alternatively, the cancellation can be implicit. For example, the base station 105 can determine a process identifier (e.g., a HARQ process identifier) for the cancelled transmission opportunity. When scheduling the dynamic transmission opportunity, the dynamic grant can indicate the process identifier. Based on the indicated process identifier, the UE 115 can determine that the configured transmission opportunity with the indicated process identifier will be cancelled and that the data scheduled to be transmitted at the cancelled transmission opportunity is rescheduled to be transmitted at the dynamic transmission opportunity.

[0097] Figure 2 FIG. illustrates an example of a wireless communication system 200 in accordance with aspects of the present disclosure. In some examples, the wireless communication system 200 may implement aspects of the wireless communication system 100. For example, the wireless communication system 200 may include a base station 205 and a UE 215, which may be examples of the corresponding devices described with reference to Figure 1 In addition to other benefits, the wireless communication system 200 may include features for an improved configuration of transmission opportunities.

[0098] The base station 205 may communicate with the UE 215 using beamforming techniques. For example, the base station 205 and the UE 215-a may communicate via the base station beam 225a and the UE beam 230a, and the base station 205 and the UE 215-b may communicate via the base station beam 225b and the UE beam 230b. In some examples, Figure 2 the communication shown may include a downlink transmission to the UE 215, where the base station beam 225 may be the transmit beam and the UE beam may be the receive beam. Additionally or alternatively, Figure 2 the communication shown in may include an uplink transmission to the UE 215, where the base station beam 225 may be the receive beam and the UE beam 230 may be the transmit beam.

[0099] In some examples, the base station 205 may configure a set of transmission opportunities for communicating data with the UE 215-a to improve resource efficiency. For example, the base station 205 may configure resources for a downlink transmission (e.g., PDSCH transmission) to the UE 215-a according to an SPS configuration. Additionally or alternatively, the base station 205 may configure resources for an uplink transmission (e.g., PUSCH transmission) from the UE 215-a according to a CG configuration. The base station 205 may configure a set of transmission opportunities with periodicity and offset according to an SPS configuration or a CG configuration. If a data transmission (e.g., a downlink transmission or an uplink transmission) fails during the configured transmission opportunity, the base station 205 may send a dynamic grant to the UE 215-a to schedule a dynamic transmission opportunity for retransmitting the data.

[0100] Each transmission occasion may be configured with a HARQ process identifier to identify data with the configured transmission occasion. The HARQ process identifier may be based on the periodicity configured for a set of transmission occasions. In some examples, UE 215-a may determine the HARQ process identifier for an SPS transmission occasion in a time slot (which may be identified by the parameter CURRENT_slot) based on the formula [[floor(CURRENT_slot×10 / (numberOfSlotsPerFrame×periodicity))]modulonrofHARQ-Processes modulo nrofHARQ-Processes, where the parameter numberOfSlotsPerFrame represents the number of consecutive time slots configured in a frame (e.g., 10 or 20), and the parameter nrofHARQ-Processes represents the number of HARQ processes configured for the set of transmission occasions. In some examples, UE 215-a may determine the HARQ process identifier for a CG transmission occasion in a symbol (which may be identified by the parameter CURRENT_symbol) based on the formula [floor(CURRENT_symbol / periodicity)] modulo nrofHARQ-Processes.

[0101] In an SPS configuration, the base station 205 may or may not send downlink data at the configured transmission occasion, but in either case, UE 215-a may attempt to decode the PDSCH transmission at the configured transmission occasion. If UE215-a does not receive the data, UE 215-a may send a HARQ negative acknowledgment (NACK) corresponding to the configured transmission occasion.

[0102] In a CG configuration, UE 215-a may send uplink data at the configured transmission occasion. Each HARQ process identifier may be associated with a timer, which may be referred to as the configuredGrantTimer. In some examples, the timer may be configured based on an RRC configuration message. The timer may start after an uplink transmission on the HARQ process. UE 215-a may not send additional uplink data on the HARQ process until the associated timer expires.

[0103] In some examples, the base station 205 may determine to cancel the transmission opportunity of UE 215-a. For example, the base station 205 may determine that communicating with UE 215-b has a higher priority than communicating with UE 215-a scheduled in the configured transmission opportunity. The base station 205 may adjust the antenna configuration based on the determined priority to communicate with UE 215-b via the base station beam 225b in the resources (e.g., time and frequency resources) associated with the configured transmission opportunity. However, if the base station 205 does not notify UE 215-a of the adjustment, UE 215-a may attempt to communicate with the base station 205 in the resources associated with the configured transmission opportunity. For example, if the configured transmission opportunity is an SPS transmission opportunity, when the decoding fails, UE 215-a may attempt to decode the PDSCH and send a HARQ NACK. Similarly, if the configured transmission opportunity is a CG transmission opportunity, UE 215-a may send a PUSCH transmission. The base station 205 may be unable to receive the PUSCH transmission and thus schedule a retransmission to receive the data.

[0104] According to the techniques described herein, the base station 205 may dynamically cancel and re-schedule the configured transmission opportunity for communicating with UE 215-a. The base station 205 may send signaling 220-a to UE 215-a. The signaling 220-a may include an authorization (e.g., a dynamic authorization) that indicates the cancellation of the transmission opportunity and schedules a dynamic transmission opportunity to communicate the information (e.g., data) that was scheduled to be transmitted in the cancelled transmission opportunity. In some examples, the base station 205 may indicate the cancellation in a downlink control information (DCI) message in the authorization. For example, the base station 205 may indicate the cancellation of the PDSCH transmission in an SPS transmission opportunity in a downlink DCI message such as a format 1_x DCI message. Additionally or alternatively, the base station 205 may indicate the cancellation of the PUSCH transmission in a CG transmission opportunity in an uplink DCI message such as a format 0_x DCI message.

[0105] Based on the authorization received in the signaling 220-a, UE 215-a may cancel the communication in the cancelled transmission opportunity. For example, UE 215-a may refrain from attempting to decode the PDSCH transmission or refrain from sending a PUSCH transmission in the resources associated with the cancelled transmission opportunity. UE 215-a may communicate the information with the base station 205 in the resources associated with the dynamic transmission opportunity indicated in the authorization.

[0106] In some examples, cancellation can be explicit, where the grant can include one or more bits identifying the transmission occasion of the cancellation. Additionally or alternatively, cancellation can be implicit. For example, the base station 205 can determine an identifier of the transmission occasion of the cancellation (e.g., a HARQ process identifier). When scheduling a dynamic transmission occasion, the grant can indicate the identifier. Based on the indicated identifier, the UE 215-a can determine that the transmission occasion configured with the indicated identifier will be cancelled, and the information scheduled for transmission at the cancelled transmission occasion is rescheduled for transmission at the dynamic transmission occasion.

[0107] In some examples, the base station 205 can determine that communication with the UE 215-b has a higher priority than communication with the UE 215-a scheduled in the configured transmission occasion. Thus, the base station 205 can send a grant in the signaling 220-a that indicates cancellation of the communication with the UE 215-a in the configured transmission occasion and reschedules the communication in the resources associated with the dynamic transmission occasion.

[0108] In some examples, the base station 205 can indicate multiple cancellations of a set of configured transmission occasions. For example, the base station 205 can indicate cancellation of multiple consecutive transmission occasions and reschedule the associated data transmission at the dynamic transmission occasion. Additionally or alternatively, the base station 205 can indicate cancellation of a large number of non-consecutive transmission occasions, e.g., based on a pattern indicated in the grant. In some examples, the base station 205 can indicate in the grant that the UE 215-a will cancel communication in the resources associated with the set of configured transmission occasions until a second grant indicating that the communication will resume is received.

[0109] In some examples, the base station 205 may determine to cancel the transmission opportunities of multiple UEs, including UE 215-a and UE 215-b. For example, the base station 205 may determine that communication with another UE 215 (not shown) has a higher priority than communication of UE 215-a and UE 215-b at the transmission opportunity. In some examples, the base station 205 may cancel the transmission opportunities of each of UE 215-a and UE 215-b separately. The base station 205 may send a first authorization in signaling 220-a, where the first authorization indicates canceling the first communication with UE 215-a in the first transmission opportunity and rescheduling the first communication in the resources associated with the first dynamic transmission opportunity. The base station may also send a second authorization in signaling 220-b, where the second authorization indicates canceling the second communication with UE 215-b in the second transmission opportunity and rescheduling the second communication in the resources associated with the second dynamic transmission opportunity. Additionally or alternatively, the base station 205 may cancel the transmission opportunities of UE 215-a and UE 215-b simultaneously in a single authorization. The base station may send the authorization in signaling 220-a and signaling 220-b, where the authorization may indicate canceling the communication with UE 215-a and 215-b at the transmission opportunity and rescheduling the communication in the resources associated with the dynamic transmission opportunity.

[0110] In some examples, UE 215-a may send a request to the base station 205 to cancel and reschedule the transmission opportunity. For example, UE 215-a may determine that UE 215-a has no data to send at the CG transmission opportunity and may request to cancel the CG transmission opportunity to improve the resource efficiency at UE 215-a. Based on the request from UE 215-a, the base station 205 may send an authorization in signaling 220-a, where the authorization indicates the cancellation of the transmission opportunity identified in the request.

[0111] In some examples, UE 215-a may be configured to communicate with the base station 205 in the resources associated with a repeating set of transmission opportunities. In some examples, the base station 205 may determine to cancel and reschedule one or more repetitions at the transmission opportunity. The base station 205 may indicate to UE 215-a which repetitions of the transmission opportunity are canceled and rescheduled. In some examples, the base station 205 may indicate the cancellation of the repeating set at the transmission opportunity.

[0112] Figure 3 Illustrates an example of a transmission scheme 300 according to aspects of the present disclosure. In some examples, the transmission scheme 300 may implement aspects of the wireless communication systems 100 and 200. For example, the transmission scheme 300 may be associated with communication between a UE and a base station, which may be with reference to Figure 1 and Figure 2Examples of corresponding devices described. Transmission scheme 300 may illustrate features of an improved configuration for transmission opportunities and other benefits.

[0113] The base station may configure resources at transmission opportunity 305 for communicating with the UE in a configured data transmission 315 to improve resource efficiency. For example, the base station may communicate with the UE in the resources associated with transmission opportunity 305a in a configured data transmission 315a. In some examples, according to the SPS configuration, the configured data transmission 315 may include a downlink transmission (e.g., PDSCH transmission) from the base station to the UE at transmission opportunity 305. Additionally or alternatively, according to the CG configuration, the configured data transmission 315 may include an uplink transmission (e.g., PUSCH transmission) from the UE to the base station at transmission opportunity 305. The configuration of transmission opportunity 305 may specify a period 310 and an offset according to the SPS configuration or the CG configuration.

[0114] The base station may determine to cancel the configured data transmission 315-b at transmission opportunity 305-b. For example, the base station may determine that communication with another UE has a higher priority than the configured data transmission 315-b. Additionally or alternatively, the UE may send a request to the base station to cancel and reschedule the configured data transmission 315-b.

[0115] The base station may send a dynamic grant 325 indicating cancellation of the configured data transmission 315-b at transmission opportunity 305-b and scheduling a dynamic data transmission 330 at a dynamic transmission opportunity 335. As Figure 3 shown, the dynamic transmission opportunity 335 may be within a period 310b after transmission opportunity 305-b. Based on this grant, the UE may refrain from communicating with the base station in the resources associated with the cancelled data transmission 315-b. In some examples, at transmission opportunity 305-b, the base station may perform higher-priority communication with another UE in the resources associated with the cancelled data transmission 315-b.

[0116] Figure 4 An example of a transmission scheme 400 according to aspects of the present disclosure is illustrated. In some examples, transmission scheme 400 may implement aspects of wireless communication systems 100 and 200. For example, transmission scheme 400 may be associated with communication between a UE and a base station, which may be examples of corresponding devices described with reference to Figure 1 and Figure 2 Examples of corresponding devices described. Transmission scheme 400 may illustrate features of an improved configuration for transmission opportunities and other benefits.

[0117] The base station may configure the resources of transmission opportunity 405 for communicating with the UE in the configured data transmission to improve resource efficiency. In some examples, according to the SPS configuration, the configured data transmission may include a downlink transmission (e.g., PDSCH transmission) from the base station to the UE at transmission opportunity 405. Additionally or alternatively, according to the CG configuration, the configured data transmission may include an uplink transmission (e.g., PUSCH transmission) from the UE to the base station at transmission opportunity 405. The configuration of transmission opportunity 405 may specify a period 410 and an offset according to the SPS configuration or the CG configuration.

[0118] In Figure 4 the example shown, the UE may be configured to communicate with the base station in the resources associated with the configured repetition 415 at transmission opportunity 405. For example, at transmission opportunity 405a, the UE may communicate with the base station in repetitions 415-a to 415-d.

[0119] The base station may determine to cancel the configured repetition 415-f at transmission opportunity 405-b. For example, the base station may determine that communicating with another UE has a higher priority than the communication in the configured repetition 415-f. Additionally or alternatively, the UE may send a request to the base station to request cancellation of the configured repetition 415-f and rescheduling of the associated communication.

[0120] The base station may send a dynamic grant 425 indicating cancellation of the configured repetition 415-f at transmission opportunity 405-b and scheduling a dynamic data transmission 430 at a dynamic transmission opportunity 435. As Figure 4 shown, the dynamic transmission opportunity 435 may be within a period 410-b after transmission opportunity 405-b. Based on this grant, the UE may refrain from communicating with the base station in the resources associated with the cancelled repetition 415-f. In some examples, at transmission opportunity 405-b, the base station may perform a higher-priority communication with another UE in the resources associated with the cancelled repetition 415f.

[0121] Figure 5 FIG. illustrates an example of a process flow 500 according to an aspect of the present disclosure. In some examples, the process flow 500 may implement aspects of the wireless communication systems 100 and 200. For example, the process flow 500 may include example operations associated with one or more of a base station 505 or a UE 515, which base station 505 or UE 515 may be referred to Figure 1 and Figure 2An example of the corresponding device described. In the following description of the process flow 500, the operations between the base station 505 and the UE 515 can be performed in an order different from the example order shown, or the operations performed by the base station 505 and the UE 515 can be performed in a different order or at different times. Some operations can also be omitted from the process flow 500, and other operations can be added to the process flow 500. The operations performed by the base station 505 and the UE 515 can support improvements to the base station 505 transmission timing configuration operation, and in some examples, can facilitate improvements to the efficiency and reliability of communication between the base station 505 and the UE 515, as well as other benefits.

[0122] At 520, the base station 505 and the UE 515 can determine the configuration of a set of transmission opportunities. In some examples, the base station 505 can configure a set of transmission opportunities for communicating data with the UE 515 to improve resource efficiency. In some examples, the configuration can specify resources for downlink transmission (e.g., PDSCH transmission) from the base station 505 to the UE 515 according to the SPS configuration. Additionally or alternatively, the configuration can specify resources for uplink transmission (e.g., PUSCH transmission) from the UE 515 to the base station 505 according to the CG configuration. The configuration can include periodicity and offset according to the SPS configuration or the CG configuration. In some examples, the UE 515 can be configured to communicate with the base station 505 in resources associated with a repeating set of each transmission opportunity.

[0123] In some examples, at 525, the base station 505 can determine the priority associated with one or more communications with one or more UEs including the UE 515. For example, the base station 505 can determine a first priority associated with a communication at a transmission opportunity in the set of transmission opportunities, and a second priority associated with a communication with another UE (not shown). The base station 505 can determine that the second priority is greater than the first priority.

[0124] In some examples, at 530, the UE 515 can send a request to the base station 505 to cancel and reschedule a transmission opportunity in the set of transmission opportunities. For example, the UE 515 can determine that the UE 515 has no data to send at the transmission opportunity (which can be a CG transmission opportunity), and can request cancellation of the transmission opportunity to improve resource efficiency at the UE 515.

[0125] In some examples, at 535, the base station 505 can determine the identifier of the cancelled transmission opportunity (e.g., HARQ process identifier). The identifier can be based on the periodicity configured for the set of transmission opportunities.

[0126] At 540, the base station 505 may send an authorization (e.g., a dynamic authorization) to the UE 515. The authorization may indicate cancellation of a transmission opportunity and schedule a dynamic transmission opportunity to communicate information (e.g., data) that was scheduled for transmission at the cancelled transmission opportunity. In some examples, the base station 505 may indicate the cancellation in a DCI message in the authorization. In some examples, the base station 505 may send the authorization based on determining that a second priority is higher than a first priority associated with the cancelled transmission opportunity. In some examples, the base station 505 may send the authorization based on a request received from the UE 515. In some examples, the authorization may indicate that one or more repetitions in a set of repetitions of a transmission opportunity will be cancelled and rescheduled.

[0127] In some examples, the cancellation may be explicit, where the authorization may be one or more bits indicating the cancelled transmission opportunity. Additionally or alternatively, the cancellation may be implicit. For example, when scheduling a dynamic transmission opportunity, the authorization may indicate an identifier associated with the cancelled transmission opportunity. Based on the indicated identifier, the UE 515 may determine that a configured transmission opportunity with the indicated identifier will be cancelled and that the information scheduled for transmission at the cancelled transmission opportunity is rescheduled for transmission at the dynamic transmission opportunity.

[0128] In some examples, the base station 505 may indicate multiple cancellations of a set of configured transmission opportunities. For example, the base station 505 may indicate cancellation of multiple consecutive transmission opportunities and reschedule the associated data transmission at a dynamic transmission opportunity. Additionally or alternatively, the base station 505 may indicate cancellation of a large number of non - consecutive transmission opportunities, e.g., based on a pattern indicated in the authorization. In some examples, the base station 505 may indicate in the authorization that the UE 515 is to cancel communication in resources associated with a set of configured transmission opportunities until a second authorization is received indicating to resume communication.

[0129] At 545, the UE 515 may cancel communication of a transmission opportunity based on the authorization. For example, the UE 515 may refrain from attempting to decode a PDSCH transmission or refrain from sending a PUSCH transmission in resources associated with the cancelled transmission opportunity. In some examples, the UE may cancel communication at one or more transmission opportunities or repetitions indicated in the authorization.

[0130] In some examples, at 550, the base station 505 may send a second authorization indicating resumption of communication according to a configuration of a set of transmission opportunities.

[0131] At 555, the UE 515 may communicate with the base station 505 according to the received authorization. The UE 515 may communicate with the base station 505 at a dynamic transmission opportunity, which may include communicating information (e.g., data) that is scheduled for transmission at a cancelled transmission opportunity. Operations performed by the base station 505 and the UE 515 may support improvements to transmission opportunity configuration operations and, in some examples, may facilitate improvements to the efficiency and reliability of communication between the base station 505 and the UE 515, as well as other benefits.

In some examples, the processor 940 of device 905 can reconfigure parameters for communication according to the transmission opportunity configuration. For example, the processor 940 of device 905 can turn on one or more processing units for receiving or transmitting data, increase the processing clock, or similar mechanisms within device 905. In this way, when subsequent dynamic authorizations are received, the processor 940 can be ready to respond more efficiently by reducing the ramp-up of processing capabilities.
