Abstract

Apparatuses, methods, and systems are disclosed for hybrid automatic repeat request acknowledgment (HARQ-ACK) codebook construction. One method includes constructing a first HARQ-ACK codebook based on first HARQ-ACK information. The first HARQ-ACK codebook is scheduled to be transmitted on a first uplink transmission occasion. The method includes determining at least part of the first HARQ-ACK information to be transmitted together with second HARQ-ACK information in response to the first uplink transmission occasion not being available for transmission. The second HARQ-ACK information is scheduled to be transmitted later than the first uplink transmission occasion. The method includes transmitting a second HARQ-ACK codebook on a second uplink transmission occasion. The second HARQ-ACK codebook is based on at least the part of the first HARQ-ACK information and the second HARQ-ACK information, and the first uplink transmission occasion starts earlier than the second uplink transmission occasion.

Claims (46)

1 . A method of a user equipment (UE), the method comprising:

constructing a first hybrid automatic repeat request acknowledgement (HARQ-ACK) codebook based on first HARQ-ACK information, wherein the first HARQ-ACK codebook is scheduled to be transmitted on a first uplink transmission occasion;

determining at least part of the first HARQ-ACK information to be transmitted together with second HARQ-ACK information in response to the first uplink transmission occasion not being available for transmission, wherein the second HARQ-ACK information is scheduled to be transmitted later than the first uplink transmission occasion; and

transmitting a second HARQ-ACK codebook on a second uplink transmission occasion, wherein the second HARQ-ACK codebook is based on at least the part of the first HARQ-ACK information and the second HARQ-ACK information, and the first uplink transmission occasion starts earlier than the second uplink transmission occasion.

2 . The method of claim 1 , further comprising detecting a downlink control information (DCI) format requesting a transmission of the first HARQ-ACK codebook on the second uplink transmission occasion, wherein transmitting the second HARQ-ACK codebook comprises transmitting the second HARQ-ACK codebook in response to detecting the DCI format.

3 . The method of claim 2 , wherein:

the first HARQ-ACK information comprises high-priority HARQ-ACK information and low-priority HARQ-ACK information;

at least the part of the first HARQ-ACK information to be transmitted together with the second HARQ-ACK information is determined based on the detected DCI format; and

the second HARQ-ACK codebook comprises the high-priority HARQ-ACK information and the second HARQ-ACK information.

4 . The method of claim 1 , further comprising constructing the second HARQ-ACK codebook by appending the first HARQ-ACK codebook to a third HARQ-ACK codebook, wherein the third HARQ-ACK codebook is based on the second HARQ-ACK information.

5 . The method of claim 1 , wherein the first uplink transmission occasion is semi-statically configured.

6 . The method of claim 1 , wherein:

the first HARQ-ACK information comprises HARQ-ACK information of at least one semi-persistent scheduling (SPS) physical downlink shared channel (PDSCH); and

the at least one SPS PDSCH is semi-persistently scheduled on at least one slot of at least one serving cell based on at least one SPS configuration.

7 . The method of claim 6 , further comprising:

receiving at least one deferring indication for a subset of SPS configurations of the at least one SPS configuration that HARQ-ACK information of the subset of SPS configurations can be deferred;

wherein at least the part of the first HARQ-ACK information is determined based on the at least one deferring indication and comprises HARQ-ACK information of a subset of SPS PDSCHs of the at least one SPS PDSCH, the subset of SPS PDSCHs corresponding to the subset of SPS configurations.

8 . The method of claim 1 , further comprising detecting a downlink control information (DCI) format requesting a transmission of a part of HARQ-ACK information that the UE maintains on a third uplink transmission occasion, wherein the DCI format includes an indication of the part of the HARQ-ACK information.

9 . The method of claim 8 , wherein the part of the HARQ-ACK information corresponds to HARQ-ACK information of a subset of serving cells.

10 . An apparatus comprising:

a processor; and

a memory coupled to the processor, the memory comprising instructions executable by the processor to cause the apparatus to:

construct a first hybrid automatic repeat request acknowledgement (HARQ-ACK) codebook based on first HARQ-ACK information, wherein the first HARQ-ACK codebook is scheduled to be transmitted on a first uplink transmission occasion;

determine at least part of the first HARQ-ACK information to be transmitted together with second HARQ-ACK information in response to the first uplink transmission occasion not being available for transmission, wherein the second HARQ-ACK information is scheduled to be transmitted later than the first uplink transmission occasion; and

transmit a second HARQ-ACK codebook on a second uplink transmission occasion, wherein the second HARQ-ACK codebook is based on at least the part of the first HARQ-ACK information and the second HARQ-ACK information, and the first uplink transmission occasion starts earlier than the second uplink transmission occasion.

11 . The apparatus of claim 10 , wherein the instructions are further executable by the processor to cause the apparatus to detect a downlink control information (DCI) format requesting a transmission of the first HARQ-ACK codebook on the second uplink transmission occasion, wherein transmitting the second HARQ-ACK codebook comprises transmitting the second HARQ-ACK codebook in response to detecting the DCI format.

12 . The apparatus of claim 11 , wherein:

the first HARQ-ACK information comprises high-priority HARQ-ACK information and low-priority HARQ-ACK information;

at least the part of the first HARQ-ACK information to be transmitted together with the second HARQ-ACK information is determined based on the detected DCI format; and

the second HARQ-ACK codebook comprises the high-priority HARQ-ACK information and the second HARQ-ACK information.

13 . The apparatus of claim 10 , wherein the instructions are further executable by the processor to cause the apparatus to construct processor constructs the second HARQ-ACK codebook by appending the first HARQ-ACK codebook to a third HARQ-ACK codebook, wherein the third HARQ-ACK codebook is based on the second HARQ-ACK information.

14 . An apparatus comprising:

a processor; and

a memory coupled to the processor, the memory comprising instructions executable by the processor to cause the apparatus to:

transmit scheduling information for a first hybrid automatic repeat request acknowledgement (HARQ-ACK) codebook to a user equipment (UE), wherein the first HARQ-ACK codebook is based on first HARQ-ACK information and is scheduled on a first uplink transmission occasion; and

receive a second HARQ-ACK codebook on a second uplink transmission occasion, wherein the second HARQ-ACK codebook is based on at least part of the first HARQ-ACK information and second HARQ-ACK information, the first uplink transmission occasion starts earlier than the second uplink transmission occasion, at least the part of the first HARQ-ACK information is determined to be received together with second HARQ-ACK information in response to the first uplink transmission occasion not being available for transmission by the UE user equipment, and the second HARQ-ACK information is scheduled to be received later than the first uplink transmission occasion.

15 . The apparatus of claim 14 , wherein the first uplink transmission occasion is semi-statically configured.
