Communication channel failure detection and recovery
A wireless device may perform a listen-before transmit (LBT) procedure for an uplink transmission. An LBT failure recovery procedure may be initiated based on a failure of one or more LBT procedures. The LBT failure recovery procedure may be aborted and/or canceled based on one or more conditions, such as receiving configuration (or reconfiguration) parameters, receiving an indication of a bandwidth part switching, deactivating a cell, and/or receiving a request to set (or reset) a communication layer of the wireless device.
1. A method comprising:
determining, by a wireless device, a quantity of listen-before-talk (LBT) failures for an active uplink bandwidth part (BWP) of a cell;
sending, based on the quantity satisfying a threshold, an uplink signal associated with an LBT failure recovery procedure for the active uplink BWP of the cell; and
cancelling the LBT failure recovery procedure based on at least one of:
receiving, by the wireless device and during the LBT failure recovery procedure, LBT failure recovery reconfiguration parameters for the cell;
receiving, by the wireless device and during the LBT failure recovery procedure, downlink information indicating BWP switching for the cell;
deactivating the cell during the LBT failure recovery procedure; or
receiving, by a medium access control (MAC) layer of the wireless device from a radio resource control (RRC) layer of the wireless device and during the LBT failure recovery procedure, a request to reset the MAC layer.
2. The method of claim 1 , further comprising:
setting, based on the cancelling the LBT failure recovery procedure, the quantity of LBT failures to zero.
3. The method of claim 1 , wherein the determining the quantity of LBT failures comprises determining the quantity during a random access procedure associated with the cell.
4. The method of claim 1 , further comprising: cancelling, based on the quantity of LBT failures, a random access procedure associated with the cell, wherein the sending the uplink signal is based on the cancelling the random access procedure.
5. The method of claim 1 , further comprising:
initiating a beam failure recovery procedure for the cell;
causing transmission of:
an LBT MAC control element (LBT MAC CE) for the LBT failure recovery procedure; and
a beam failure recovery MAC control element (BFR MAC CE) for the beam failure recovery procedure; and
sending a MAC protocol data unit (MAC PDU) comprising a logical channel of the BFR MAC CE preceding a logical channel of the LBT MAC CE.
6. The method of claim 1 , wherein the sending the uplink signal comprises sending the uplink signal via a second cell different from the cell.
7. The method of claim 1 , wherein the uplink signal comprises at least one of:
a random access preamble;
a scheduling request; or
an LBT MAC control element.
8. A method comprising:
determining, by a wireless device, a quantity of listen-before-talk (LBT) failures for an active uplink bandwidth part (BWP) of a cell;
sending, based on the quantity satisfying a threshold, an uplink signal associated with an LBT failure recovery procedure for the active uplink BWP of the cell; and
cancelling the LBT failure recovery procedure based on receiving, by the wireless device and during the LBT failure recovery procedure, reconfiguration parameters for the cell.
9. The method of claim 8 , wherein cancelling the LBT failure recovery procedure is further based on at least one of:
receiving, during the LBT failure recovery procedure, downlink information indicating BWP switching for the cell;
deactivating the cell during the LBT failure recovery procedure; or
receiving, by a medium access control (MAC) layer of the wireless device from a radio resource control (RRC) layer of the wireless device and during the LBT failure recovery procedure, a request to reset the MAC layer.
10. The method of claim 8 , wherein the reconfiguration parameters for the cell comprise LBT failure recovery reconfiguration parameters for the cell.
11. The method of claim 8 , wherein cancelling the LBT failure recovery procedure comprises dropping a configured transmission associated with the LBT failure recovery procedure.
12. The method of claim 8 , further comprising: cancelling, based on the quantity of LBT failures, a random access procedure associated with the cell, wherein the sending the uplink signal is based on the cancelling the random access procedure.
13. The method of claim 8 , further comprising:
initiating a beam failure recovery procedure for the cell;
causing transmission of:
an LBT MAC control element (LBT MAC CE) for the LBT failure recovery procedure; and
a beam failure recovery MAC control element (BFR MAC CE) for the beam failure recovery procedure; and
sending a MAC protocol data unit (MAC PDU) comprising a logical channel of the BFR MAC CE preceding a logical channel of the LBT MAC CE.
14. The method of claim 8 , wherein the sending the uplink signal comprises sending the uplink signal via a second cell different from the cell.
15. A method comprising:
sending, by a wireless device and based on a determination of one or more listen-before-talk (LBT) failures for an active uplink bandwidth part (BWP) of a cell, an uplink signal associated with an LBT failure recovery procedure for the active uplink BWP of the cell; and
cancelling the LBT failure recovery procedure based on receiving, by the wireless device and during the LBT failure recovery procedure, downlink information indicating BWP switching for the cell.
16. The method of claim 15 , wherein the sending the uplink signal is based on a quantity of the one or more LBT failures exceeding a threshold.
17. The method of claim 15 , wherein cancelling the LBT failure recovery procedure is further based on at least one of:
receiving, during the LBT failure recovery procedure, LBT failure recovery reconfiguration parameters for the cell;
deactivating the cell during the LBT failure recovery procedure; or
receiving, by a medium access control (MAC) layer of the wireless device from a radio resource control (RRC) layer of the wireless device and during the LBT failure recovery procedure, a request to reset the MAC layer.
18. The method of claim 15 , wherein cancelling the LBT failure recovery procedure comprises dropping a configured transmission associated with the LBT failure recovery procedure.
19. The method of claim 15 , further comprising: cancelling, based on the one or more LBT failures, a random access procedure associated with the cell, wherein the sending the uplink signal is based on the cancelling the random access procedure.
20. The method of claim 15 , further comprising:
initiating a beam failure recovery procedure for the cell;
