Abstract

Claims (39)

1. A wireless device, comprising:

one or more processors; and

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

receive downlink control information (DCI) comprising a first hybrid automatic repeat request (HARQ) process identifier and a resource assignment, wherein the first HARQ process identifier indicates a first HARQ process of HARQ processes; and

transmit, using the resource assignment and based on a second HARQ process identifier, a transport block associated with a second HARQ process, of the HARQ processes, wherein the second HARQ process identifier:

indicates the second HARQ process; and

is based on the first HARQ process identifier and a HARQ process identifier offset.

2. The wireless device of claim 1 , wherein the second HARQ process identifier is further based on a summation of the first HARQ process identifier and the HARQ process identifier offset.

3. The wireless device of claim 1 , wherein the instructions further cause the wireless device to receive one or more configuration parameters indicating the HARQ processes.

4. The wireless device of claim 3 , wherein the one or more configuration parameters further indicate a parameter of a size of a DCI field, indicating the first HARQ process identifier, of a DCI format, wherein the DCI is based on the DCI format.

5. The wireless device of claim 1 , wherein the instructions further cause the wireless device to receive a second DCI comprising a third HARQ process identifier and a second resource assignment, wherein the third HARQ process identifier indicates the third HARQ process of the HARQ processes, and wherein the second DCI indicates to retransmit the transport block.

6. The wireless device of claim 5 , wherein the instructions further cause the wireless device to retransmit, using the second resource assignment and based on the third HARQ process identifier, the transport block based on the third HARQ process.

7. The wireless device of claim 5 , wherein the second DCI further indicates transmission of the transport block is based on a configured grant resource.

8. The wireless device of claim 1 , wherein the DCI corresponds to a first type of service.

9. The wireless device of claim 8 , wherein the instructions further cause the wireless device to determine the first type of service based on at least one of:

a radio network temporary identifier associated with the DCI;

a format of the DCI; or

a size of the DCI.

10. The wireless device of claim 8 , wherein the first type of service comprises ultra reliable low latency communications.

11. A base station, comprising:

one or more processors; and

memory coupled to the one or more processors and storing instructions that, when executed by the one or more processors, cause the base station to:

transmit downlink control information (DCI) comprising a first hybrid automatic repeat request (HARQ) process identifier and a resource assignment, wherein the first HARQ process identifier indicates a first HARQ process of HARQ processes; and

receive, based on the resource assignment and a second HARQ process identifier, a transport block associated with a second HARQ process, of the HARQ processes, wherein the second HARQ process identifier:

indicates the second HARQ process; and

is based on the first HARQ process identifier and a HARQ process identifier offset.

12. The base station of claim 11 , wherein the second HARQ process identifier is further based on a summation of the first HARQ process identifier and the HARQ process identifier offset.

13. The base station of claim 11 , wherein the instructions further cause the base station to transmit one or more configuration parameters indicating the HARQ processes.

14. The base station of claim 13 , wherein the one or more configuration parameters further indicate a parameter of a size of a DCI field, indicating the first HARQ process identifier, of a DCI format, wherein the DCI is based on the DCI format.

15. The base station of claim 11 , wherein the instructions further cause the base station to transmit a second DCI comprising a third HARQ process identifier and a second resource assignment, wherein the third HARQ process identifier indicates the third HARQ process of the HARQ processes, and wherein the second DCI indicates to retransmit the transport block.

16. The base station of claim 15 , wherein the instructions further cause the base station to transmit, using the second resource assignment and based on the third HARQ process identifier, the transport block based on the third HARQ process.

17. The base station of claim 15 , wherein the second DCI further indicates transmission of the transport block is based on a configured grant resource.

18. The base station of claim 11 , wherein the DCI corresponds to a first type of service.

19. A non-transitory computer-readable medium comprising instructions that, when executed by one or more processors of a wireless device, cause the wireless device to:

receive downlink control information (DCI) comprising a first hybrid automatic repeat request (HARQ) process identifier and a resource assignment, wherein the first HARQ process identifier indicates a first HARQ process of HARQ processes; and

transmit, using the resource assignment and based on a second HARQ process identifier, a transport block associated with a second HARQ process, of the HARQ processes, wherein the second HARQ process identifier:

indicates the second HARQ process; and

is based on the first HARQ process identifier and a HARQ process identifier offset.

20. The non-transitory computer-readable medium of claim 19 , wherein the second HARQ process identifier is further based on a summation of the first HARQ process identifier and the HARQ process identifier offset.
