Uplink Early Termination for Overlapping Configured Grants

The patent applies local quality by differentiating transmission priorities within configured grant resources. High-priority transmissions are allowed to overlap and preempt low-priority transmissions, while low-priority transmissions are terminated early to avoid interference. This creates localized quality differences in resource allocation based on transmission priority, resolving the contradiction between resource utilization and interference prevention.

The patent implements dynamic transmission termination where the duration of uplink transmissions is adjusted based on detected overlapping transmissions. When a high-priority transmission is detected, low-priority transmissions are dynamically terminated early. This dynamic adjustment allows resource utilization to improve when conditions permit while preventing interference when high-priority transmissions occur.

The patent applies preliminary action by detecting overlapping transmissions before they cause complete collision. The receiving device detects the presence of high-priority transmissions in advance and triggers early termination of low-priority transmissions. This preliminary detection and response mechanism prevents latency issues before they fully manifest while maintaining overall throughput.

The patent implements partial action by allowing low-priority transmissions to proceed for part of their allocated duration until high-priority transmissions are detected. Once detected, the low-priority transmissions are terminated early. This partial execution approach balances throughput maintenance with latency reduction for high-priority data.

The patent applies self-service by enabling the receiving device to autonomously detect overlapping transmissions and trigger early termination without complex centralized coordination. The system uses self-contained detection mechanisms where the receiving device monitors for high-priority transmissions and automatically manages termination of low-priority transmissions, reducing overall system complexity while achieving low latency.

The patent implements feedback mechanisms where transmission status information is exchanged between devices to coordinate early termination. The receiving device provides feedback about detected high-priority transmissions, which triggers the transmitting device to terminate low-priority transmissions early. This feedback loop achieves low latency with manageable complexity through distributed coordination.
