Expiration handling of two-stage grant validity duration
Embodiments of the present disclosure may include monitoring, at a physical layer, for a physical uplink shared channel (PUSCH) trigger for a PUSCH transmission, determining, at the physical layer, the PUSCH trigger is not received, wherein a wireless communication device is not to perform the PUSCH transmission based on the determination that the PUSCH trigger is not received, and considering, at a medium access control (MAC) entity, the PUSCH transmission to have been performed. Other embodiments may be described and/or claimed.
1. At least one non-transitory computer-readable medium comprising instructions stored thereon that, in response to execution of the instructions by one or more processors cause a user equipment (UE) to:
receive a physical uplink shared channel (PUSCH) trigger A;
monitor, at a physical layer of the wireless communications device, for a PUSCH trigger B for a PUSCH transmission;
determine, at the physical layer, the PUSCH trigger B has not been received prior to expiration of a PUSCH validity timer, wherein the wireless communication device is not to perform the PUSCH transmission based on the determination; and
start, at a medium access control (MAC) entity, one or more discontinuous reception (DRX) timers based on the determination that the PUSCH trigger B has not been received prior to the expiration of the PUSCH validity timer.
2. The at least one non-transitory computer-readable medium of claim 1 , wherein the PUSCH trigger B is a one bit trigger in a physical downlink control channel (PDCCH) downlink control information (DCI) scrambled with a common control radio network temporary identifier (CC-RNTI).
3. The at least one non-transitory computer-readable medium of claim 1 , wherein the instructions, in response to execution, are further to cause the MAC entity to monitor a physical downlink control channel (PDCCH) for the PUSCH trigger B until the PUSCH validity timer expires.
4. The at least one non-transitory computer-readable medium of claim 1 , wherein the instructions, in response to execution, are to cause the UE to identify a duration of the PUSCH validity timer in a downlink control information (DCI) transmission.
5. The at least one non-transitory computer-readable medium of claim 1 , wherein the instructions are to cause the UE to wait for retransmission of the PUSCH transmission at the MAC entity.
6. A wireless communication apparatus comprising: processing circuitry to:
obtain a physical uplink shared channel (PUSCH) trigger A;
monitor, at a physical layer, of the wireless communications apparatus, for a PUSCH trigger B for a PUSCH transmission before expiration of a PUSCH validity timer;
determine, at the physical layer, the PUSCH trigger B has not been received, wherein the wireless communication apparatus is not to perform the PUSCH transmission based on the determination that the PUSCH trigger B has not been received; and
consider, at a medium access control (MAC) entity, the PUSCH transmission to have been performed; and
memory, coupled with the processing circuitry, to store an indication of a duration of the PUSCH validity timer.
7. The wireless communication apparatus of claim 6 , wherein the processing circuitry is also to identify the duration of the PUSCH validity timer in a downlink control information (DCI) transmission.
8. The wireless communication apparatus of claim 6 , wherein the PUSCH trigger B is a one bit trigger in a physical downlink control channel (PDCCH) downlink control information (DCI) scrambled with a common control radio network temporary identifier (CC-RNTI).
9. The wireless communication apparatus of claim 6 , wherein the processing circuitry is also to start, at the MAC entity, one or more discontinuous reception (DRX) timers upon an expiration of the PUSCH validity timer.
10. The wireless communication apparatus of claim 6 , wherein the processing circuitry is also to: monitor, at the MAC entity, a physical downlink control channel (PDCCH) for the PUSCH trigger B until expiration of the PUSCH validity timer.
11. The wireless communication apparatus of claim 6 , wherein the processing circuitry is to signal expiration of the PUSCH validity timer from the physical layer to a MAC layer.
12. The wireless communication apparatus of claim 11 , wherein the processing circuitry is to process the PUSCH transmission at the MAC layer based at least in part on the expiration of the PUSCH validity timer signaled by the physical layer.
13. The wireless communication apparatus of claim 6 , wherein the wireless communication apparatus is a user equipment or a portion thereof.
14. A wireless communication apparatus comprising:
means for receiving a physical uplink shared channel (PUSCH) trigger A;
means for monitoring for a PUSCH trigger B for a PUSCH transmission;
means for determining the PUSCH trigger B has not been received prior to expiration of a PUSCH validity timer, wherein the wireless communication apparatus is not to perform the PUSCH transmission based on the determination; and
means for starting, at a medium access control (MAC) entity, one or more discontinuous reception (DRX) timers based on the determination that the PUSCH trigger B has not been received prior to the expiration of the PUSCH validity timer.
15. The wireless communication apparatus of claim 14 , wherein the means for monitoring for the PUSCH trigger B includes means for monitoring for the PUSCH trigger B by a physical layer.
16. The wireless communication apparatus of claim 14 , wherein the PUSCH trigger B is a one bit trigger in a physical downlink control channel (PDCCH) downlink control information (DCI) scrambled with a common control radio network temporary identifier (CC-RNTI).
17. The wireless communication apparatus of claim 14 , further comprising:
means for identifying a duration of the PUSCH validity timer, wherein the means for starting the one or more DRX timers is to start the one or more DRX timers upon expiration of the PUSCH validity timer.
18. The wireless communication apparatus of claim 17 , wherein the means for monitoring for the PUSCH trigger B includes means for monitoring, at the MAC entity, a physical downlink control channel (PDCCH) for the PUSCH trigger B until expiration of the PUS CH validity timer.
19. The wireless communication apparatus of claim 17 , wherein the means for identifying the duration of the PUSCH validity timer is to identify the duration of the PUSCH validity timer in a downlink control information (DCI) transmission.
20. The wireless communication apparatus of claim 14 , further comprising means for waiting for retransmission of the PUSCH transmission at the MAC entity in response to the determination that the PUSCH trigger B has not been received.
21. The wireless communication apparatus of claim 14 , wherein the wireless communication apparatus is a user equipment or a portion thereof.
