Autonomous Codebook Selection for HARQ Reporting

The patent applies preliminary action by pre-configuring multiple codebook configurations before HARQ reporting is needed. The UE receives and stores multiple codebook configurations in advance, each corresponding to different HARQ process subsets. When reporting time arrives, the UE can immediately select and transmit the appropriate pre-configured codebook without delay, eliminating the need to wait for dynamic codebook configuration at transmission time.

The patent implements dynamics by enabling the UE to autonomously select from multiple pre-configured codebook configurations based on current transmission needs. The UE dynamically determines which codebook configuration to use by evaluating available PUCCH resources and selecting the most appropriate one, allowing flexible adaptation to different reporting scenarios while maintaining fast transmission.

The patent applies self-service by enabling the UE to autonomously select the appropriate codebook configuration without requiring network signaling for each selection. The UE independently evaluates available PUCCH resources and determines the best codebook configuration based on local conditions, reducing the need for complex network-UE coordination and signaling overhead while maintaining fast reporting.

The patent implements segmentation by dividing the complete HARQ codebook into multiple smaller codebooks, each corresponding to a specific subset of HARQ processes. This segmentation allows the UE to manage and select from smaller, more manageable codebook configurations rather than handling one large comprehensive codebook, reducing processing complexity while enabling timely reporting.
