Parameterized Self-Contained Subframe Structure for Wireless Latency

The subframe structure is segmented into two distinct portions: an interlaced portion for medium latency traffic and a tail portion for low-latency traffic. This segmentation allows each portion to be optimized for its specific traffic type, with the tail portion providing reduced trigger-response delay for low-latency requirements while the interlaced portion maintains the periodic structure for medium latency traffic.

The subframe structure is made dynamic by allowing the tail portion to be configured with reduced trigger-response delay parameters that can be adjusted based on traffic type and service level. This dynamic adjustment enables the system to adapt to diverse traffic requirements within a single unified framework, improving latency performance for low-latency traffic while maintaining compatibility with medium latency traffic.

By segmenting the subframe into interlaced and tail portions with different trigger-response delay characteristics, the system can process different traffic types through appropriate segments. This reduces the need for large buffers to accommodate all traffic types simultaneously, as low-latency traffic can be handled by the tail portion with its reduced delay requirements.

Different portions of the subframe structure are assigned different quality characteristics: the interlaced portion maintains periodic timing for medium latency traffic, while the tail portion provides reduced trigger-response delay for low-latency traffic. This local differentiation allows the system to meet diverse buffer requirements without requiring a single high-capacity buffer for all traffic types.
