Abstract

Methods and systems for operation in a wireless communication system are provided. A first transmission may be initiated using at least a first portion of physical layer resources. A second transmission may be initiated using at least a second portion of the same physical layer resources. The first transmission may be any one of a puncturing transmission, interfering transmission, delay-sensitive transmission, or short transmission. The second transmission may be an on-going transmission or a long transmission.

Claims (17)

1. A method implemented in a wireless transmit/receive unit (WTRU), the method comprising:

receiving control information, wherein the control information includes code block group feedback for a first uplink transmission sent by the WTRU, and wherein the control information includes an indication that at least one code block group of a second uplink transmission is combinable with at least one code block group from the first uplink transmission; and

sending the second uplink transmission, wherein the second uplink transmission includes a retransmission of at least part of data from the first uplink transmission based on the code block group feedback.

2. A wireless transmit receive unit (WTRU), the WTRU comprising:

a receiver operatively coupled to a processor, the receiver and processor configured to receive control information, wherein the control information includes code block group feedback for a first uplink transmission sent by the WTRU, and wherein the control information includes an indication that at least one code block group of a second uplink transmission is combinable with at least one code block group from the first uplink transmission; and

a transmitter operatively coupled to the processor, the transmitter and processor configured to send the second uplink transmission, wherein the second uplink transmission includes a retransmission of at least part of data from the first uplink transmission based on the code block group feedback.

3. A method implemented by a wireless transmit/receive unit (WTRU), the method comprising:

receiving a first transmission of a code block group, wherein one or more code blocks of the code block group is unsuccessfully decoded;

sending a bitmap with code block group feedback based on the one or more unsuccessfully decoded code blocks;

receiving control information, on a control channel, wherein the control information includes an indication that a code block group of a second transmission is a retransmission of the code block group from the first transmission, and wherein the control information includes an indication of whether the code block group of the second transmission is combinable with the code block group from the first transmission; and

receiving the second transmission including the retransmission of the code block group from the first transmission.

4. A wireless transmit/receive unit (WTRU), the WTRU comprising:

a transceiver operatively connected to a processor, the transceiver and processor configured to receive a first transmission of a code block group, wherein one or more code blocks of the code block group is unsuccessfully decoded;

the transceiver and processor further configured to send a bitmap with code block group feedback based on the one or more unsuccessfully decoded code blocks; and

the transceiver and processor further configured to receive control information on a control channel and receive a second transmission including a retransmission of the code block group from the first transmission, wherein the control information includes an indication that a code block group of the second transmission is the retransmission of the code block group from the first transmission, and wherein the control information includes an indication of whether the code block group of the second transmission is combinable with the code block group from the first transmission.

5. The method of claim 1 , wherein the control information indicates a transmission structure to be used for the second uplink transmission.

6. The WTRU of claim 2 , wherein the control information indicates a transmission structure to be used for the second uplink transmission.
