Two stage grant for a secondary cell in a wireless device
A wireless device starts a deactivation timer of a secondary cell based on receiving a MAC command indicating activation of the secondary cell. The deactivation timer is restarted in response to receiving a first DCI comprising: a first field indicating an uplink resource block assignment; and a first trigger field indicating that the first DCI is triggered in response to a second trigger of a second DCI. The second DCI is received and comprises: a second trigger field indicating the second trigger; and a second field indicating a subframe offset value. The deactivation timer is restarted in response to receiving the second DCI. In response to the second trigger, transport block(s) are transmitted using the uplink resource block assignment of a subframe. A position of the subframe is determined based on the subframe offset value.
1. A method comprising:
starting, by a wireless device, a deactivation timer of a secondary cell based on receiving a medium access control (MAC) command indicating activation of the secondary cell;
restarting the deactivation timer of the secondary cell in response to receiving a first downlink control information (DCI) comprising:
a first field indicating an uplink resource block assignment; and
a first trigger field indicating that the first DCI is triggered in response to receiving a second DCI indicating a second trigger;
receiving the second DCI comprising:
a second trigger field indicating the second trigger; and
a second field indicating a subframe offset value;
restarting the deactivation timer of the secondary cell in response to receiving the second DCI indicating the second trigger; and
transmitting, in response to the second trigger, one or more transport blocks using the uplink resource block assignment of a subframe, wherein a position of the subframe is determined based on the subframe offset value.
2. The method of claim 1 , wherein the secondary cell is a licensed assisted access (LAA) cell.
3. The method of claim 1 , wherein the second DCI further comprises a third field indicating a subframe format.
4. The method of claim 1 , wherein the first DCI comprises a second field indicating a time interval during which the second DCI is received.
5. The method of claim 1 , further comprising deactivating the secondary cell in response to the deactivation timer expiring.
6. The method of claim 1 , wherein the first DCI further indicates a modulation and coding scheme for transmission of the one or more transport blocks.
7. The method of claim 1 , receiving at least one radio resource control (RRC) message comprising configuration parameters of a plurality of cells, wherein:
the secondary cell is of the plurality of cells; and
the configuration parameters comprising a deactivation timer value for the deactivation timer of the secondary cell.
8. The method of claim 7 , wherein:
the plurality of cells comprise a second cell; and
the at least one RRC message indicates that the second cell carries scheduling information for the secondary cell.
9. The method of claim 8 , wherein the second DCI is received via a common search space of a control channel.
10. The method of claim 9 , wherein the secondary cell is a licensed assisted access (LAA) cell.
11. A wireless device comprising:
one or more processors;
memory storing instructions that, when executed by the one or more processors, cause the wireless device to:
start a deactivation timer of a secondary cell based on receiving a medium access control (MAC) command indicating activation of the secondary cell;
restart the deactivation timer of the secondary cell in response to receiving a first downlink control information (DCI) comprising:
a first field indicating an uplink resource block assignment; and
a first trigger field indicating that the first DCI is triggered in response to receiving a second DCI indicating a second trigger;
receive the second DCI comprising:
a second trigger field indicating the second trigger; and
a second field indicating a subframe offset value;
restart the deactivation timer of the secondary cell in response to receiving the second DCI indicating the second trigger; and
transmit, in response to the second trigger, one or more transport blocks using the uplink resource block assignment of a subframe, wherein a position of the subframe is determined based on the subframe offset value.
12. The wireless device of claim 11 , wherein the secondary cell is a licensed assisted access (LAA) cell.
13. The wireless device of claim 11 , wherein the second DCI further comprises a third field indicating a subframe format.
14. The wireless device of claim 11 , wherein the first DCI comprises a second field indicating a time interval during which the second DCI is received.
15. The wireless device of claim 11 , wherein the instructions, when executed by the one or more processors, further cause the wireless device to deactivate the secondary cell in response to the deactivation timer expiring.
16. The wireless device of claim 11 , the first DCI further indicates a modulation and coding scheme for transmission of the one or more transport blocks.
17. The wireless device of claim 11 , wherein the instructions, when executed by the one or more processors, further cause the wireless device to receive at least one radio resource control (RRC) message comprising configuration parameters of a plurality of cells, wherein:
the secondary cell is of the plurality of cells; and
the configuration parameters comprising a deactivation timer value for the deactivation timer of the secondary cell.
18. The wireless device of claim 17 , wherein:
the plurality of cells comprise a second cell; and
the at least one RRC message indicates that the second cell carries scheduling information for the secondary cell.
19. The wireless device of claim 18 , wherein the second DCI is received via a common search space of a control channel.
20. The wireless device of claim 19 , wherein the secondary cell is a licensed assisted access (LAA) cell.
