Uplink transmission using two stage grant in a wireless device
A wireless device receives a first downlink control information (DCI) configured to be triggered in response to a second DCI. The first DCI indicates: a hybrid retransmission request (HARQ) identifier; and a new data identifier (NDI). One or more first transport blocks (TBs) are created in response to the first DCI. in response to not detecting the second DCI during a validation duration: the first DCI is invalidated, and transmission of the one or more first TBs is dropped. A third DCI indicating a same value of the HARQ identifier is received. Uplink signals are transmitted in response to the third DCI. The wireless device employs the NDI to determine an adaptive-retransmission of the one or more first TBs or a new transmission of one or more second TBs.
1. A method comprising:
receiving, by a wireless device, a first downlink control information (DCI) configured to be triggered in response to a second DCI, the first DCI indicating:
a hybrid retransmission request (HARQ) identifier; and
a new data identifier (NDI);
creating one or more first transport blocks (TBs) in response to the first DCI;
in response to not detecting the second DCI during a validation duration:
invalidating the first DCI; and
dropping transmission of the one or more first TBs;
receiving a third DCI indicating a same value of the HARQ identifier; and
transmitting uplink signals in response to the third DCI, wherein the wireless device employs the NDI to determine an adaptive-retransmission of the one or more first TBs or a new transmission of one or more second TBs.
2. The method of claim 1 , wherein the first DCI comprises:
a first trigger field indicating that an uplink grant of the first DCI is triggered in response to the second DCI, the second DCI comprising a second trigger; and
a validation field indicating the validation duration for receiving the second DCI validating the first DCI.
3. The method of claim 2 , further comprising monitoring for the second DCI during at least a portion of the validation duration.
4. The method of claim 3 , wherein the monitoring for the second DCI is performed on a common search space of a control channel.
5. The method of claim 4 , further comprising receiving, by the wireless device, at least one message comprising configuration parameters of a plurality of cells comprising a licensed assisted access cell.
6. The method of claim 5 , wherein the second DCI corresponds to a pre-defined radio network temporary identifier (RNTI).
7. The method of claim 6 , wherein the second DCI comprises:
a subframe format field indicating a subframe format; and
a subframe field indicating a subframe offset.
8. The method of claim 7 , wherein the first DCI further comprises a resource block assignment field indicating a resource block assignment for uplink transmission on a cell.
9. The method of claim 8 , wherein the third DCI comprises:
a second NDI field; and
a second resource block assignment field indicating a second resource block assignment.
10. The method of claim 2 , further comprising monitoring for the second DCI on a common search space of a control channel.
11. A method comprising:
receiving, by a wireless device, a first downlink control information (DCI) configured to be triggered in response to a second DCI;
creating, by a medium access control (MAC) entity, one or more first transport blocks (TBs) in response to the first DCI; and
in response to not detecting the second DCI during a validation duration:
invalidating the first DCI;
dropping transmission of the one or more first TBs; and
considering, by the MAC entity, that the transmission of the one or more first TBs to have been performed anyway.
12. The method of claim 11 , wherein the first DCI comprises:
a hybrid retransmission request (HARM) identifier; and
a new data identifier (NDI) field.
13. The method of claim 12 , wherein the first DCI further comprises:
a first trigger field indicating that an uplink grant of the first DCI is triggered in response to the second DCI, the second DCI comprising a second trigger; and
a validation field indicating the validation duration for receiving the second DCI validating the first DCI.
14. The method of claim 13 , further comprising monitoring for the second DCI during at least a portion of the validation duration.
15. The method of claim 14 , wherein the monitoring for the second DCI is performed on a common search space of a control channel.
16. The method of claim 15 , wherein the second DCI corresponds to a pre-defined radio network temporary identifier (RNTI).
17. The method of claim 16 , wherein the second DCI comprises:
a subframe format field indicating a subframe format; and
a subframe field indicating a subframe offset.
18. The method of claim 17 , wherein the first DCI further comprises a resource block assignment field indicating a resource block assignment for uplink transmission on a cell.
19. The method of claim 18 , further comprising, based on the MAC entity considering that the transmission of the one or more first TBs to have been performed:
storing the HARQ identifier and the NDI; and
storing the one or more first TBs in a HARQ buffer.
20. The method of claim 19 , further comprising:
receiving a third DCI indicating a same value of the HARQ identifier; and
transmitting uplink signals in response to the third DCI, wherein the wireless device employs the stored NDI to determine an adaptive-retransmission of the one or more first TBs or a new transmission of one or more second TBs.
