[0177] Uplink grant-free transmission and uplink configured grant transmission (physical uplink shared channel (PUSCH) Transmission with a Configured Grant) support two types of uplink grant-free transmission. All parameters of the first type of grant-free transmission are configured by the network device through high-layer signaling (radio resource control (RRC) signaling); some parameters of the second type of grant-free transmission are configured by the network device through high-layer signaling, and other scheduling-related parameters are configured by the network device by activating downlink control information (DCI).

[0178] In some embodiments, a maximum of 12 sets of uplink ungranted transmission configurations may be configured and activated on a bandwidth part (BWP), and each configuration is identified by an index.

[0179] In some embodiments, the period of uplink grant-free transmission (referred to as the configured grant (CG) period) is configured by higher-layer signaling and supports up to 14*40960 symbols. During the CG period, the first type of grant-free transmission is configured with time-frequency resources via higher-layer signaling, while the second type of grant-free transmission is configured with time-frequency resources via DCI activation. These time-frequency resources within the CG period are also referred to as CG PUSCH occasions (TOs).

[0180] In some embodiments, only one TO can be configured in a CG period, or in other words, only one TO can be configured in a CG configuration. At the same time, the network device will further configure the number of repeated transmissions K through high-layer signaling. At this time, there will be K CG PUSCH occasions with the same configuration in the CG period.

[0181] XR (VR, AR) services require low latency and high throughput. To enhance XR services, we propose enhancing CG by reusing CG PUSCH occasions that are not in use by the terminal. To this end, multiple TOs can be configured within a CG cycle, and the terminal can send dynamic indication signaling to the network device to notify it of any "unused" TOs.

[0182] In some embodiments, a method for determining a HARQ process ID is as follows:

[0183] Regarding the method for determining the HARQ process identifier for the first type of CG configuration (a CG period indicated by the first type of CG configuration includes multiple TOs, also known as a multi-PUSCH CG configuration) in radio access network (RAN) 1, the following are supported:

[0184] Y=1;

[0185] Offset 1 = 0 (e.g., delete Offset 1);

[0186] Offset 2 = 0 (eg, delete Offset 2).

[0187] In some embodiments, for determining the HARQ process identifier associated with a TO (or PUSCH) in a multiple PUSCH CG configuration, assuming one transport block (TB) per TO (or PUSCH):

[0188] X is outside the floor operation;

[0189] X = the number of TOs (or PUSCHs) configured in the CG period.

[0190] In some embodiments, the HARQ process identifiers of the remaining configured / valid CG PUSCHs in the time period are determined by incrementing the HARQ process identifier of the previous PUSCH in the time period by 1, using module operation of nrofHARQ-Processes or module operation of (nrofHARQ-Processes + harq-ProcID-Offset2) in the time period, whichever is applicable.

[0191] In some embodiments, from the perspective of RAN1, to determine the HARQ process identity associated with a TO (or PUSCH) in a multi-PUSCH CG configuration, assuming one TB per TO (or PUSCH):

[0192] The HARQ process identifier of the first configured TO (or PUSCH) within a period is determined according to the traditional CG process when the CG retransmission timer (cg-Retransmission Timer) is not configured, and the following formula is applied, whichever is applicable:

[0193] HARQ Process ID=[X*floor((CURRENT_symbol) / periodicity)]modulo nrofHARQ-Processes;

[0194] HARQ Process ID=[X*floor((CURRENT_symbol) / periodicity)]modulo nrofHARQ-Processes+harq-ProcID-Offset2;

[0195] Wherein, X=the number of TOs (or PUSCHs) configured in the CG period.

[0196] Among them, floor is the floor operation; modulo is the modulo operation; periodicity is the period of CG configuration.

[0197] In some embodiments, the HARQ process identifiers of the remaining configured and valid TO (or PUSCH) in the time period are determined by incrementing the HARQ process identifier of the previous TO (or PUSCH) in the time period by 1, and the module operation using the number of HARQ processes (nrofHARQ-Processes) or the module operation using (nrofHARQ-Processes+harq-ProcID-Offset2) in the time period is performed, whichever is applicable.

[0198] It should be noted that if TO (or PUSCH) is discarded due to a conflict with the downlink symbol indicated by the time division duplexing (TDD) uplink and downlink common configuration tdd-UL-DL-ConfigurationCommon or the TDD uplink and downlink dedicated configuration tdd-UL-DL-ConfigurationDedicated or the synchronization / physical broadcast channel block (SSB), the configured TO (or PUSCH) is invalid.

[0199] In some embodiments, to assign HARQ process IDs to multiple TOs within a CG period, X (the number of TOs within a CG period) is introduced into the calculation of the HARQ process ID. The enhanced formula above is used to calculate the HARQ process ID corresponding to the first TO within the CG period, while the HARQ process IDs corresponding to the remaining TOs are determined by adding 1.

[0200] In some embodiments, the HARQ process ID (also known as HP ID) has the following restrictions:

[0201] 1. CURRENT_symbol refers to the symbol index of the first transmission occasion of the configured uplink grant bundle.

[0202] 2. If a configured uplink grant is activated and the associated HARQ process identifier is less than nrofHARQ-Processes, then a HARQ process is configured for the configured uplink grant where neither harq-ProcID-Offset nor harq-ProcID-Offset2 is configured. If a configured uplink grant is activated and the associated HARQ process identifier is greater than or equal to harq-ProcID-Offset2 and less than the sum of harq-ProcID-Offset2 and nrofHARQ-Processes configured for the configured grant, then a HARQ process is configured for the configured uplink grant where harq-ProcID-Offset2 is configured.

[0203] 3. If cg-RetransmissionTimer is not configured, HARQ processes will not be shared between grant configurations with different configurations in the same bandwidth part (BWP).

[0204] Among them, 1. It mainly defines the meaning of the parameter CURRENT_symbol, which is the symbol index of the first transmission opportunity in a set of CG configurations.

[0205] 2. It mainly defines the size limit of HARQ process ID when HARQ process is valid.

[0206] 3. Mainly determine the sharing of HARQ between different CG configurations.

[0207] In some embodiments, the HARQ process ID is restricted taking into account the accumulation mechanism:

[0208] A HARQ process can only be configured with a value less than nrofHARQ-Processes or less than the sum of harq-ProcID-Offset2 and nrofHARQ-Processes. Due to the accumulation mechanism, the actual HARQ process ID calculated will be inflated based on the number of TOs within a CG period. Without optimization, some TOs will not be able to be configured as HARQ processes. There are two optimization paths: First, configure the normal nrofHARQ-Processes and the nrofHARQ-Processes of the multi-PUSCHs CG configuration (the first type of CG configuration) independently. In this case, a larger value can be configured for the multi-PUSCHs CG, and the HARQ calculations of the normal and multi-PUSCHs CGs are unaffected. Second, modify the constraint condition and introduce a supplementary constraint of X (the number of TOs within a CG period). This ensures that the HARQ process ID constraint for the multi-PUSCHs CG remains the same as before.

[0209] It can be understood that if the CG configuration indicates that the CG period includes multiple TOs, it is impossible to determine whether each of the multiple TOs is configured to perform the HARQ process.

[0210] In an embodiment of the present disclosure, it is determined that a first type of configuration authorization CG configuration that satisfies a first condition is activated, and that a HARQ process identifier associated with a first TO indicated by the first type of CG configuration satisfies a second condition, wherein the CG period indicated by the first type of CG configuration includes multiple TOs; and it is determined that the first TO is configured to execute a HARQ process. Thus, it is possible to determine whether the first TO among the multiple TOs indicated by the first type of CG configuration is configured to execute a HARQ process, thereby ensuring normal communication.

[0564] In an exemplary embodiment, the first type of CG configuration is a multi-PUSCHs CG configuration, the network device is a base station, the HARQ parameter is HARQ_X, and the specific period is a UTO period.

[0565] In one implementation, the base station configures at least one set of CG resources for the terminal on a BWP through RRC signaling.

In another implementation, the base station configures partial information of at least one CG configuration for the terminal on a BWP through RRC signaling, and the base station notifies the terminal of the remaining information of the CG configuration through dynamic signaling DCI. After the base station activates the CG configuration through dynamic signaling DCI, the terminal can perform uplink transmission on the TO in the CG configuration by itself within the CG period configured by the base station.
