Abstract

Systems, apparatuses, and methods are described for wireless communications. A base station may determine configuration parameters for a wireless device. The configuration parameters may be based on traffic pattern information received from the wireless device, such as a traffic periodicity, a timing offset, and/or a message size.

sending, by the base station distributed unit to the wireless device, an indication of activation of the at least one resource.

2 . The method of claim 1 , further comprising:

receiving, by the base station distributed unit from the base station central unit, one or more initial parameters; and

modifying, by the base station distributed unit and based on the traffic pattern information, the one or more initial parameters to determine the at least one parameter.

receiving, by the base station distributed unit from the base station central unit, a radio resource control (RRC) message comprising at least one of:

the at least one parameter, or

an updated parameter based on the at least one parameter; and

sending, by the base station distributed unit to the wireless device, the RRC message.

6 . The method of claim 1 , further comprising:

8 . A method comprising:

receiving, by a base station central unit from a wireless device via a base station distributed unit, a radio resource control (RRC) message comprising traffic pattern information, wherein the traffic pattern information is associated with the wireless device;

sending, by the base station central unit to the base station distributed unit, the traffic pattern information; and

receiving, by the base station central unit from the base station distributed unit, at least one parameter associated with at least one resource for the wireless device, wherein the at least one parameter is based on the traffic pattern information.

9 . The method of claim 8 , further comprising:

sending, by the base station central unit to the base station distributed unit, one or more initial parameters, wherein the at least one parameter is further based on the one or more initial parameters.

10 . The method of claim 8 , wherein the at least one parameter comprises a semi-persistent scheduling (SPS) configuration parameter for at least one SPS configuration for the wireless device.

11 . The method of claim 8 , further comprising sending, to the wireless device via the base station distributed unit, a second RRC message comprising at least one of:

the at least one parameter,

an updated parameter based on the at least one parameter,

a configured grant (CG) resource configuration parameter based on the traffic pattern information, or

a configured scheduling (CS) resource configuration parameter based on the traffic pattern information.

12 . The method of claim 8 , wherein the at least one parameter is for at least one of a downlink, an uplink, or a sidelink.

13 . The method of claim 8 , wherein the at least one parameter comprises at least one of: an interval, a configured process, a release time, a two interval configuration, a configuration index, or a logical channel identifier.

14 . The method of claim 8 , wherein the traffic pattern information comprises at least one of:

a traffic periodicity field; or
