Abstract

A wireless device may receive first configuration parameters, of a logical channel, and second configuration parameters for uplink LBT failure recovery. The second configuration parameters may comprise a parameter indicating a first number. The wireless device may receive an uplink grant for transmission of a TB via a cell. The wireless device may multiplex the logical channel in the TB based on an LBT counter, associated with the cell, not reaching the first number. The wireless device may transmit the TB based on the uplink grant.

Claims (52)

1. A method comprising:

receiving, by a wireless device:

first configuration parameters of a first logical channel; and

listen-before-talk (LBT) failure recovery configuration parameters;

receiving a first uplink grant for transmission of a first transport block (TB) via a first cell;

determining, based on an LBT counter not reaching a first number, that consistent LBT failure is not triggered for the first cell;

multiplexing data of the first logical channel in the first TB based on the consistent LBT failure not being triggered; and

transmitting the first TB based on the first uplink grant.

2. The method of claim 1 , wherein the LBT failure recovery configuration parameters comprise a parameter indicating the first number.

3. The method of claim 1 , further comprising:

receiving a second uplink grant for transmission of a second TB via the first cell;

multiplexing data of one or more second logical channels in the second TB; and

wherein, the one or more second logical channels do not comprise the first logical channel based on the LBT counter reaching the first number.

4. The method of claim 1 , further comprising multiplexing a first control element in the first TB based on the LBT counter not reaching the first number.

5. The method of claim 4 , wherein the first control element is a beam failure recovery medium access control (MAC) control element.

6. The method of claim 4 , wherein the first control element is an LBT failure medium access control (MAC) control element.

7. The method of claim 1 , wherein the first number is for determining after how many uplink LBT failure events the wireless device triggers uplink LBT failure recovery.

8. The method of claim 1 , wherein:

the multiplexing data of the first logical channel in the first TB is based on a logical channel prioritization procedure;

the logical channel prioritization procedure comprises selecting one or more logical channels and one or more control elements for an uplink grant of a cell; and

the selecting is based on whether consistent LBT failures is triggered for the cell.

9. The method of claim 1 , wherein the first configuration parameters comprise a first parameter indicating that the first logical channel is mapped to a cell for which the consistent LBT failures is not triggered or indicating that the first logical channel is not mapped to a cell for which the consistent LBT failures is triggered.

10. The method of claim 1 , wherein the first configuration parameters indicate that:

the first logical channel is allowed to be transmitted via an unlicensed cell; and

the first logical channel is not allowed to be transmitted via an unlicensed cell for which consistent LBT failures is triggered.

11. A wireless device comprising:

one or more processors; and

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

receive:

first configuration parameters of a first logical channel; and

listen-before-talk (LBT) failure recovery configuration parameters;

receive a first uplink grant for transmission of a first transport block (TB) via a first cell;

determine, based on an LBT counter not reaching a first number, that consistent LBT failure is not triggered for the first cell;

multiplex data of the first logical channel in the first TB based on the consistent LBT failure not being triggered; and

transmit the first TB based on the first uplink grant.

12. The wireless device of claim 11 , wherein the LBT failure recovery configuration parameters comprise a parameter indicating the first number.

13. The wireless device of claim 11 , wherein the instructions, when executed by the one or more processors, further cause the wireless device to:

receive a second uplink grant for transmission of a second TB via the first cell;

multiplex data of one or more second logical channels in the second TB; and

wherein, the one or more second logical channels do not comprise the first logical channel based on the LBT counter reaching the first number.

14. The wireless device of claim 11 , wherein the instructions, when executed by the one or more processors, further cause the wireless device to multiplex a first control element in the first TB based on the LBT counter not reaching the first number.

15. The wireless device of claim 14 , wherein the first control element is a beam failure recovery medium access control (MAC) control element.

16. The wireless device of claim 14 , wherein the first control element is an LBT failure medium access control (MAC) control element.

17. The wireless device of claim 11 , wherein the first number is for determining after how many uplink LBT failure events the wireless device triggers uplink LBT failure recovery.

18. The wireless device of claim 11 , wherein:

multiplexing data of the first logical channel in the first TB is based on a logical channel prioritization procedure;

the logical channel prioritization procedure comprises selecting one or more logical channels and one or more control elements for an uplink grant of a cell; and

the selecting is based on whether consistent LBT failures is triggered for the cell.

19. The wireless device of claim 11 , wherein the first configuration parameters comprise a first parameter indicating that the first logical channel is mapped to a cell for which the consistent LBT failures is not triggered or indicating that the first logical channel is not mapped to a cell for which the consistent LBT failures is triggered.

20. The wireless device of claim 11 , wherein the first configuration parameters indicate that:

the first logical channel is allowed to be transmitted via an unlicensed cell; and

the first logical channel is not allowed to be transmitted via an unlicensed cell for which consistent LBT failures is triggered.
