Uplink Transmission Overlap Handling in Mobile Communications

The patent applies parameter changes by introducing priority parameters associated with different uplink grants and service types. When transmission opportunities overlap, the system changes the state of resource allocation by selecting grants based on priority parameters, service types (eMBB, URLLC, eMTC), and grant types (dynamic, configured). This resolves conflicts by dynamically adjusting which grant is executed based on predefined priority rules rather than treating all grants equally.

The patent applies local quality by assigning different priority levels and characteristics to different types of uplink grants based on their service requirements. Dynamic grants used for URLLC are given higher priority with stricter timing requirements, while configured grants for eMBB have lower priority but higher throughput potential. This allows the system to optimize locally for latency-critical transmissions without completely sacrificing overall system productivity, as each grant type is treated according to its specific quality requirements.

The patent applies feedback mechanisms where the network monitors transmission outcomes and adjusts grant configurations accordingly. When lower priority grants are dropped due to overlaps, the system receives feedback about these dropped opportunities and can adjust future grant allocations, priority assignments, or overlap handling strategies. This feedback loop helps optimize the balance between reliability and resource efficiency over time, reducing wasted resources while maintaining critical transmission success rates.
