Abstract

A wireless device receives uplink grants indicating resources of cells. First uplink grants of the uplink grants are processed as a group according to an order. The group is based on the first uplink grants being received during one or more coinciding time durations that the wireless device is configured to monitor at least one control channel for the cells. The processing comprises multiplexing data of one or more logical channels into transport blocks based on the first uplink grants. The transport blocks are transmitted based on the first uplink grants.

Claims (29)

1. A method comprising:

receiving, by a wireless device, uplink grants indicating resources of cells;

processing as a group, according to an order, first uplink grants of the uplink grants,

wherein the group is based on the first uplink grants being received during one or more coinciding time durations that the wireless device is configured to monitor at least one control channel for the cells, and wherein the processing comprises multiplexing data of one or more logical channels into transport blocks based on the first uplink grants; and

transmitting, based on the first uplink grants, the transport blocks.

2. The method of claim 1 , wherein an uplink grant, in the uplink grants, comprises a field indicating a transmission time of an uplink transmission.

3. The method of claim 1 , wherein the multiplexing is based on a sum of capacities of second uplink grants in the first uplink grants.

4. The method of claim 3 , further comprising receiving configuration parameters indicating one or more priorities of the one or more logical channels.

5. The method of claim 4 , wherein the multiplexing is based on the one or more priorities.

6. The method of claim 1 , further comprising receiving configuration parameters indicating that the one or more logical channels are mapped to one or more transmission durations.

7. The method of claim 6 , wherein the multiplexing the data of the one or more logical channels is based on the one or more transmission durations.

8. The method of claim 7 , wherein each of the one or more logical channels is mapped to at least one first transmission duration.

9. The method of claim 1 , further comprising receiving configuration parameters indicating a prioritized bit rate corresponding to a logical channel in the one or more logical channels, wherein the multiplexing is based on the prioritized bit rate.

10. The method of claim 1 , wherein a second uplink grant, of the first uplink grants, and a third uplink grant, of the first uplink grants, indicate uplink transmissions at different times.

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:

receive uplink grants indicating resources of cells;

process as a group, according to an order, first uplink grants of the uplink grants, wherein the group is based on the first uplink grants being received during one or more coinciding time durations that the wireless device is configured to monitor at least one control channel for the cells, and wherein the processing comprises multiplexing data of one or more logical channels into transport blocks based on the first uplink grants; and

transmit, based on the first uplink grants, the transport blocks.

12. The wireless device of claim 11 , wherein an uplink grant, in the uplink grants, comprises a field indicating a transmission time of an uplink transmission.

13. The wireless device of claim 11 , wherein the multiplexing is based on a sum of capacities of second uplink grants in the first uplink grants.

14. The wireless device of claim 13 , wherein the instructions further cause the wireless device to receive configuration parameters indicating one or more priorities of the one or more logical channels.

15. The wireless device of claim 14 , wherein the multiplexing is based on the one or more priorities.

16. The wireless device of claim 11 , wherein the instructions further cause the wireless device to receive configuration parameters indicating that the one or more logical channels are mapped to one or more transmission durations.

17. The wireless device of claim 16 , wherein the multiplexing the data of the one or more logical channels is based on the one or more transmission durations.

18. The wireless device of claim 17 , wherein each of the one or more logical channels is mapped to at least one first transmission duration.

19. The wireless device of claim 11 , wherein the instructions further cause the wireless device to receive configuration parameters indicating a prioritized bit rate corresponding to a logical channel in the one or more logical channels, wherein the multiplexing is based on the prioritized bit rate.

20. The wireless device of claim 11 , wherein a second uplink grant, of the first uplink grants, and a third uplink grant, of the first uplink grants, indicate uplink transmissions at different times.
