Abstract

Various aspects of the present disclosure generally relate to wireless communication. In some aspects, a user equipment may identify, when using carrier aggregation and a plurality of component carrier groups, first traffic associated with a first service type and second traffic associated with a second service type for concurrent transmission. The user equipment may transmit, concurrently, the first traffic associated with the first service type using a first component carrier group of the plurality of component carrier groups, and the second traffic associated with the second service type using a second component carrier group of the plurality of component carrier groups. Numerous other aspects are provided.

wherein the first traffic is associated with a first service type, and

wherein the second traffic is associated with a second service type.

2. The user equipment of claim 1 ,

wherein the first PUCCH group includes one or more first component carriers,

wherein the one or more first component carriers include a first PUCCH component carrier,

wherein the second PUCCH group includes one or more second component carriers, and

3. The user equipment of claim 2 ,

wherein the one or more first component carriers further include a first non-PUCCH component carrier, and

wherein the one or more second component carriers further include a second non-PUCCH component carrier.

4. The user equipment of claim 3 ,

wherein the carrier traffic is transmitted via the first PUCCH component carrier or the first non-PUCCH component carrier, and

wherein the second traffic is transmitted via the second PUCCH component carrier or the second non-PUCCH component carrier.

5. The user equipment of claim 1 , wherein the first traffic is associated with a physical uplink shared channel (PUSCH),

wherein the PUSCH is conveyable using a PUCCH component carrier or using a non-PUCCH component carrier, and

wherein the first traffic is transmitted via the PUCCH component carrier or the non-PUCCH component carrier.

6. The user equipment of claim 1 , wherein the first traffic is associated with a PUCCH, and

wherein the PUCCH is conveyable using only PUCCH component carriers.

7. The user equipment of claim 1 , wherein the first service type is enhanced mobile broadband (eMBB), and

wherein the second service type is ultra-reliable low latency communication (URLLC).

8. The user equipment of claim 1 , wherein the first traffic is associated with a PUCCH, and

wherein the second traffic is associated with a physical uplink shared channel (PUSCH).

9. The user equipment of claim 1 , wherein different component carriers are required to schedule the concurrent transmissions of the first traffic and the second traffic.

10. The user equipment of claim 1 , wherein the first PUCCH group includes a PUCCH component carrier and a non-PUCCH component carrier, and

wherein the first traffic is transmitted via the PUCCH component carrier or the non-PUCCH component carrier.

11. The UE of claim 1 ,

wherein the first PUCCH group includes a first component carrier group, and

wherein the second PUCCH group includes a second component carrier group.

12. The UE of claim 11 ,

wherein the first traffic is a PUCCH traffic that is transmitted via the first component carrier group, and

wherein the first component carrier group is a PUCCH component carrier group.

13. The UE of claim 11 ,

wherein the second traffic is a non-PUCCH traffic that is transmitted via the second component carrier group, and

wherein the second component carrier group is a non-PUCCH component carrier group.

14. The UE of claim 11 ,

wherein the first traffic is a PUCCH traffic that is transmitted via the first component carrier group, and

wherein the first component carrier group is a PUCCH component carrier group,

wherein the second traffic is a non-PUCCH traffic that is transmitted via the second component carrier group, and

wherein the second component carrier group is a non-PUCCH component carrier group.

15. The UE of claim 11 ,

wherein the first component carrier group is a PUCCH component carrier group, and

wherein the PUCCH component carrier group is configured to convey a PUCCH traffic and a non-PUCCH traffic.

16. A method of wireless communication performed at a user equipment, comprising:

transmitting first traffic using a first physical uplink control channel (PUCCH) group; and

transmitting second traffic using a second PUCCH group concurrently with transmitting the first traffic using the first PUCCH group,

wherein the first traffic is associated with a first service type, and

wherein the second traffic is associated with a second service type.

17. The method of claim 16 ,

wherein the first PUCCH group includes one or more first plurality of component carriers,

wherein the one or more first component carriers include a first PUCCH component carrier,

wherein the second PUCCH group includes one or more second component carriers, and

wherein the one or more second component carriers include a second PUCCH component carrier.

18. The method of claim 17 ,

wherein the one or more first component carriers further include a first non-PUCCH component carrier, and

wherein the one or more second component carriers further include a second non-PUCCH component carrier.

19. The method of claim 18 ,

wherein the PUSCH is conveyable using a PUCCH component carrier or using a non-PUCCH component carrier.

21. The method of claim 16 , wherein the first traffic is associated with a PUCCH,

wherein the PUCCH is conveyable using only PUCCH component carriers.

22. The method of claim 16 , wherein the first service type is enhanced mobile broadband (eMBB), and

wherein the second service type is ultra-reliable low latency communication (URLLC).

23. The method of claim 16 , wherein the first traffic is associated with a PUCCH, and

wherein the second traffic is associated with a physical uplink shared channel (PUSCH).

24. The method of claim 16 , wherein different component carriers are required to schedule the concurrent transmissions of the first traffic and the second traffic.
