Abstract

Aspects described herein relate to determining a beta offset for determining a number of shared channel resources to be used to transmit uplink control information, where a downlink control information indicating a resource grant for the shared channel resources does not include at least an indication of selection of a dynamic beta offset. A shared data channel including the uplink control information can be generated based at least in part on the beta offset, and transmitted over the shared data channel resources.

Claims (34)

1. A method of wireless communication, comprising:

receiving a configuration indicating a set of multiple possible dynamic beta offsets;

receiving downlink control information indicating a resource grant for shared channel resources, wherein the downlink control information does not include at least an indication of selection of a dynamic beta offset;

generating, based on receiving the downlink control information without the indication of selection of the dynamic beta offset, a shared data channel including uplink control information using a first one in the set of multiple possible dynamic beta offsets; and

transmitting the shared data channel over the shared data channel resources.

2. The method of claim 1 , wherein the set of multiple possible dynamic beta offsets are indicated in a table having associated indices, and wherein generating the shared data channel includes using one in the set of multiple possible dynamic beta offsets having a lowest index in the table.

3. The method of claim 1 , further comprising determining that the downlink control information does not include at least the indication of selection of the dynamic beta offset based at least in part on determining a format of the downlink control information.

4. The method of claim 1 , further comprising receiving a configuration indicating a set of multiple possible dynamic beta offsets and a semi-static beta offset, wherein using the first one in the set of multiple possible dynamic beta offsets is based on determining the semi-static beta offset.

5. A method of wireless communication, comprising:

transmitting, to a user equipment (UE), a configuration indicating a set of multiple possible dynamic beta offsets; and

receiving, from the UE, over shared channel resources, and where a downlink control information indicating a resource grant for the shared channel resources does not include at least an indication of selection of a dynamic beta offset, a shared data channel including uplink control information using a first one in the set of multiple possible dynamic beta offsets.

6. The method of claim 5 , wherein the set of multiple possible dynamic beta offsets are indicated in a table having associated indices, and wherein receiving the shared data channel includes using one in the set of multiple possible dynamic beta offsets having a lowest index in the table.

7. The method of claim 5 , further comprising determining that the downlink control information does not include at least the indication of selection of the dynamic beta offset based at least in part on determining a format of the downlink control information.

8. The method of claim 5 , further comprising transmitting a configuration indicating a set of multiple possible dynamic beta offsets and a semi-static beta offset, wherein using the first one in the set of multiple possible dynamic beta offsets is based on determining the semi-static beta offset.

9. An apparatus for wireless communication, comprising:

a transceiver;

a memory configured to store instructions; and

one or more processors communicatively coupled with the transceiver and the memory, wherein the one or more processors are configured to:

receive a configuration indicating a set of multiple possible dynamic beta offsets;

receive downlink control information indicating a resource grant for shared channel resources, wherein the downlink control information does not include at least an indication of selection of a dynamic beta offset;

generate, based on receiving the downlink control information without the indication of selection of the dynamic beta offset, a shared data channel including uplink control information using a first one in the set of multiple possible dynamic beta offsets; and

transmit the shared data channel over the shared data channel resources.

10. The apparatus of claim 9 , wherein the set of multiple possible dynamic beta offsets are indicated in a table having associated indices, and wherein the one or more processors are configured to generate the shared data channel includes using one in the set of multiple possible dynamic beta offsets having a lowest index in the table.

11. The apparatus of claim 9 , wherein the one or more processors are further configured to determine that the downlink control information does not include at least the indication of selection of the dynamic beta offset based at least in part on determining a format of the downlink control information.

12. The apparatus of claim 9 , wherein the one or more processors are further configured to receive a configuration indicating a set of multiple possible dynamic beta offsets and a semi-static beta offset, wherein the one or more processors are configured to use the first one in the set of multiple possible dynamic beta offsets based on determining the semi-static beta offset.

13. An apparatus for wireless communication, comprising:

a transceiver;

a memory configured to store instructions; and

one or more processors communicatively coupled with the transceiver and the memory, wherein the one or more processors are configured to:

transmit, to a user equipment (UE), a configuration indicating a set of multiple possible dynamic beta offsets; and

receive, from the UE, over shared channel resources, and where a downlink control information indicating a resource grant for the shared channel resources does not include at least an indication of selection of a dynamic beta offset, a shared data channel including uplink control information using a first one in the set of multiple possible dynamic beta offsets.

14. The apparatus of claim 13 , wherein the set of multiple possible dynamic beta offsets are indicated in a table having associated indices, and wherein the one or more processors are configured to receive the shared data channel includes using one in the set of multiple possible dynamic beta offsets having a lowest index in the table.

15. The apparatus of claim 13 , wherein the one or more processors are further configured to determine that the downlink control information does not include at least the indication of selection of the dynamic beta offset based at least in part on determining a format of the downlink control information.

16. The apparatus of claim 13 , wherein the one or more processors are further configured to transmit a configuration indicating a set of multiple possible dynamic beta offsets and a semi-static beta offset, wherein the one or more processors are configured to use the first one in the set of multiple possible dynamic beta offsets based on determining the semi-static beta offset.
