Uplink scheduling in a wireless device and wireless network
A wireless device receives at least one message comprising configuration parameters of a secondary cell configured with scheduling request (SR) resources. The wireless device receives an activation command indicating activation of the secondary cell. The wireless device determines that the secondary cell has an invalid SR resource when in a subframe: an SR process is pending; the SR resources are configured in the subframe; and a time alignment timer of the sTAG comprising the secondary cell is not running in the subframe.
1. A method comprising:
receiving, by a wireless device, at least one radio resource control (RRC) message comprising configuration parameters of a plurality of cells, the plurality of cells grouped into a plurality of timing advance groups (TAGs) comprising:
a primary TAG comprising a primary cell; and
a secondary TAG (sTAG) comprising a secondary cell, the secondary cell configured with scheduling request (SR) resources;
receiving a media access control (MAC) activation command indicating activation of the secondary cell; and
determining that the secondary cell has an invalid SR resource when in a subframe:
an SR process is pending;
the SR resources are configured in the subframe; and
a time alignment timer of the sTAG is not running in the subframe.
2. The method of claim 1 , wherein the plurality of cells grouped into a plurality of physical uplink control channel (PUCCH) groups comprising:
a primary PUCCH group comprising the primary cell with a primary PUCCH transmitted to a base station; and
a secondary PUCCH group comprising the secondary cell with a secondary PUCCH transmitted to the base station.
3. The method of claim 1 , wherein the secondary cell is in an activated state in the subframe.
4. The method of claim 1 , wherein the SR resources are configured on the secondary cell in the subframe.
5. The method of claim 1 , wherein the at least one message comprises a time alignment timer parameter for the sTAG.
6. The method of claim 1 , wherein the at least one message comprises:
first configuration parameters of a primary PUCCH for the primary cell; and
second configuration parameters of a secondary PUCCH for the secondary cell.
7. The method of claim 1 , further comprising initiating the SR process when the wireless device has one or more uplink packets for transmission.
8. The method of claim 1 , wherein no uplink data channel resources are available for transmission in the subframe.
9. The method of claim 1 , further comprising initiating a random access process on the primary cell when no uplink data channel resources are available for transmission in the subframe.
10. A wireless device comprising:
one or more processors; and
memory storing instructions that, when executed by the one or more processors, cause the wireless device to:
receive at least one radio resource control (RRC) message comprising configuration parameters of a plurality of cells, the plurality of cells grouped into a plurality of timing advance groups (TAGs) comprising:
a primary TAG comprising a primary cell; and
a secondary TAG (sTAG) comprising a secondary cell, the secondary cell configured with scheduling request (SR) resources;
receive a media access control (MAC) activation command indicating activation of the secondary cell; and
determine that the secondary cell has an invalid SR resource when in a subframe:
an SR process is pending;
the SR resources are configured in the subframe; and
a time alignment timer of the sTAG is not running in the subframe.
11. The wireless device of claim 10 , wherein the plurality of cells grouped into a plurality of physical uplink control channel (PUCCH) groups comprising:
a primary PUCCH group comprising the primary cell with a primary PUCCH transmitted to a base station; and
a secondary PUCCH group comprising the secondary cell with a secondary PUCCH transmitted to the base station.
12. The wireless device of claim 10 , wherein the secondary cell is in an activated state in the subframe.
13. The wireless device of claim 10 , wherein the SR resources are configured on the secondary cell in the subframe.
14. The wireless device of claim 10 , wherein the at least one message comprises a time alignment timer parameter for the sTAG.
15. The wireless device of claim 10 , wherein the at least one message comprises:
first configuration parameters of the primary PUCCH for a primary cell; and
second configuration parameters of a secondary PUCCH for the secondary cell.
16. The wireless device of claim 10 , wherein the instructions, when executed, further cause the wireless device to initiate the SR process when the wireless device has one or more uplink packets for transmission.
17. The wireless device of claim 10 , wherein no uplink data channel resources are available for transmission in the subframe.
18. The wireless device of claim 10 , wherein the instructions, when executed, further cause the wireless device to initiate a random access process on the primary cell when no uplink data channel resources are available for transmission in the subframe.
