Uplink transmission techniques in low-latency wireless communication
Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described that provide for indicating transmit power control information to a user equipment (UE) for semi-persistent scheduling (SPS) transmissions in short transmission time intervals (TTIs) from the UE, and for configuring reference signal transmissions in SPS transmissions of short TTIs. A UE may be configured with uplink power control information for SPS transmissions that use sTTIs that is separate from uplink power control for longer TTIs. A UE may receive the power control information and apply it in SPS transmissions that use sTTIs. Uplink transmit power for SPS sTTI transmissions may be independent of power control for regular sTTI transmissions and independent of power control for long TTI transmissions. UEs may apply a cyclic shift to reference signals transmitted is SPS transmissions according to a SPS configuration, rather than a cyclic shift indicated in a SPS activation command.
1. A method for wireless communication by a user equipment, comprising:
receiving a semi-persistent scheduling (SPS) activation for a SPS short transmission time interval (sTTI) uplink transmission;
receiving downlink control information (DCI) in a common search space, the DCI comprising transmit power control (TPC) for the SPS sTTI uplink transmission;
receiving a non-SPS TPC for non-SPS sTTI uplink transmissions, the non-SPS TPC being received between receiving the TPC for the SPS sTTI and transmitting the SPS sTTI uplink transmission, the SPS sTTI uplink transmission and the non-SPS TPC being included in a same transmission interval; and
transmitting the SPS sTTI uplink transmission based on the TPC for the SPS sTTI separate from the non-SPS TPC.
2. An apparatus for wireless communication, comprising:
a processor, the processor comprising a combination of computing devices;
memory in electronic communication with the processor; and
instructions stored in the memory and executable by the processor to cause the apparatus to:
receive a semi-persistent scheduling (SPS) activation for a SPS short transmission time interval (sTTI) uplink transmission;
receive downlink control information (DCI) in a common search space, the DCI comprising transmit power control (TPC) for the SPS sTTI uplink transmission;
receive a non-SPS TPC for non-SPS sTTI uplink transmissions, the non-SPS TPC being received between a receipt of the TPC for the SPS sTTI and the SPS sTTI uplink transmission, the SPS sTTI uplink transmission and the non-SPS TPC being included in a same transmission interval; and
transmit the SPS sTTI uplink transmission based on the TPC for the SPS sTTI separate from the non-SPS TPC.
