Abstract

A wireless device receives one or more radio resource control messages. The one or more radio resource control messages comprise configuration parameters of semi-persistent channel state information (CSI) reports for transmission via a physical uplink shared channel (PUSCH) of a first cell in a timing advance group. A downlink control information (DCI) indicating activation of semi-persistent CSI is received via PUSCH resources of the PUSCH of the first cell. In response to a time alignment timer of the timing advance group expiring, first PUSCH resources of the PUSCH resources are cleared. The first PUSCH resources occur after the time alignment timer expires.

Claims (51)

1. A method comprising:

receiving, by a wireless device, one or more radio resource control (RRC) messages comprising configuration parameters of semi-persistent channel state information (CSI) reports for transmission via a physical uplink shared channel (PUSCH) of a first cell in a timing advance group;

receiving a downlink control information (DCI) indicating activation of semi-persistent CSI via PUSCH resources of the PUSCH of the first cell; and

in response to a time alignment timer associated with the timing advance group expiring, clearing first PUSCH resources of the PUSCH resources and maintaining RRC configuration parameters of the semi-persistent CSI reports, wherein the first PUSCH resources occur after the time alignment timer expires.

2. The method of claim 1 , further comprising transmitting a first semi-persistent CSI report, of the semi-persistent CSI reports, via second PUSCH resources of the PUSCH resources wherein the second PUSCH resources occur before the time alignment timer expires.

3. The method of claim 2 , wherein the second PUSCH resources are available for uplink scheduling by a base station in response to the clearing of the second PUSCH resources.

4. The method of claim 1 , wherein the one or more radio resource control messages further comprise:

first configuration parameters of one or more cells grouped into the timing advance group; and

second configuration parameters of the time alignment timer for the timing advance group.

5. The method of claim 1 , wherein the PUSCH resources of the first cell are determined based on:

the DCI; and

the configuration parameters of the semi-persistent CSI reports.

6. The method of claim 1 , wherein the one or more radio resource control messages are one or more radio resource control messages comprising the configuration parameters of the semi-persistent CSI reports.

7. The method of claim 1 , further comprising:

receiving a second DCI indicating activation of second PUSCH resources, wherein the second PUSCH resources are determined based on:

the second DCI; and

the configuration parameters of the semi-persistent CSI reports; and

transmitting a second semi-persistent CSI report, of the semi-persistent CSI reports, via resources of the second PUSCH resources.

8. The method of claim 1 , further comprising starting the time alignment timer in response to receiving a timing advance control element.

9. The method of claim 1 , wherein the timing advance group is a primary timing advance group comprising a primary cell and one or more secondary cells.

10. The method of claim 1 , wherein the timing advance group is a secondary timing advance group comprising one or more secondary cells.

11. A wireless device comprising:

one or more processors; and

memory storing instructions that, when executed by the one or more processors, cause the wireless device to:

receive one or more radio resource control (RRC) messages comprising configuration parameters of semi-persistent channel state information (CSI) reports for transmission via a physical uplink shared channel (PUSCH) of a first cell in a timing advance group;

receive a downlink control information (DCI) indicating activation of semi-persistent CSI via PUSCH resources of the PUSCH of the first cell; and

in response to a time alignment timer associated with the timing advance group expiring, clear first PUSCH resources of the PUSCH resources and maintain RRC configuration parameters of the semi-persistent CSI reports, wherein the first PUSCH resources occur after the time alignment timer expires.

12. The wireless device of claim 11 , wherein the instructions, when executed by the one or more processors, further cause the wireless device to transmit a first semi-persistent CSI report, of the semi-persistent CSI reports, via second PUSCH resources of the PUSCH resources wherein the second PUSCH resources occur before the time alignment timer expires.

13. The wireless device of claim 12 , wherein the second PUSCH resources are available for uplink scheduling by a base station in response to the clearing of the second PUSCH resources.

14. The wireless device of claim 11 , wherein the one or more radio resource control messages further comprise:

first configuration parameters of one or more cells grouped into the timing advance group; and

second configuration parameters of the time alignment timer for the timing advance group.

15. The wireless device of claim 11 , wherein the PUSCH resources of the first cell are determined based on:

the DCI; and

the configuration parameters of the semi-persistent CSI reports.

16. The wireless device of claim 11 , wherein the one or more radio resource control messages are one or more radio resource control messages comprising the configuration parameters of the semi-persistent CSI reports.

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 a second DCI indicating activation of second PUSCH resources, wherein the second PUSCH resources are determined based on:

the second DCI; and

the configuration parameters of the semi-persistent CSI reports; and

transmit a second semi-persistent CSI report, of the semi-persistent CSI reports, via resources of the second PUSCH resources.

18. The wireless device of claim 11 , wherein the instructions, when executed by the one or more processors, further cause the wireless device to start the time alignment timer in response to receiving a timing advance control element.

19. The wireless device of claim 11 , wherein the timing advance group is a primary timing advance group comprising a primary cell and one or more secondary cells.

20. The system comprising:

a base station; and

a wireless device comprising:

one or more processors; and

memory storing instructions that, when executed by the one or more processors, cause the wireless device to:

receive, from the base station, one or more radio resource control (RRC) messages comprising configuration parameters of semi-persistent channel state information (CSI) reports for transmission via a physical uplink shared channel (PUSCH) of a first cell in a timing advance group;

receive a downlink control information (DCI) indicating activation of semi-persistent CSI via PUSCH resources of the PUSCH of the first cell; and

in response to a time alignment timer associated with the timing advance group expiring, clear first PUSCH resources of the PUSCH resources and maintain RRC configuration parameters of the semi-persistent CSI reports, wherein the first PUSCH resources occur after the time alignment timer expires.
