Consecutive data packet feedback
Apparatuses, methods, and systems are disclosed for consecutive data packet feedback. One method includes receiving a first set of consecutive data packets. The method includes transmitting feedback corresponding to the first set of consecutive data packets, wherein the feedback comprises: an error indication in response each data packet in the first set of consecutive data packets failing to be received correctly; a non-error indication in response to at least one data packet in the first set of consecutive data packets being received correctly; a counter value that indicates a consecutive number of data packet failures; or some combination thereof.
1. A method comprising:
receiving a first set of consecutive data packets;
transmitting first feedback corresponding to the first set of consecutive data packets prior to receiving additional data packets, wherein the first feedback comprises a counter value, wherein the counter value indicates a last consecutive number of data packet failures;
receiving a second set of consecutive data packets; and
transmitting second feedback corresponding to the second set of consecutive data packets, wherein a second length of the second set of consecutive data packets is different than a first length of the first set of consecutive data packets, and the second length is determined based on a loss tolerance and the first feedback.
2. The method of claim 1 , further comprising receiving the second set of consecutive data packets after receiving the first set of consecutive data packets, wherein the second set of consecutive data packets are transmitted from a second number of transmission points in response to:
the counter value being greater than a predetermined threshold; and
the first set of consecutive data packets being transmitted from a single transmission point, wherein the second number of transmission points is greater than a first number of transmission points corresponding to the first set of consecutive data packets.
3. The method of claim 1 , further comprising receiving the second set of consecutive data packets after receiving the first set of consecutive data packets, wherein the second set of consecutive data packets are repeatedly transmitted from a single transmission point in response to the counter value being greater than a predetermined threshold.
4. The method of claim 1 , further comprising receiving the second set of consecutive data packets after receiving the first set of consecutive data packets, wherein the second set of consecutive data packets are repeatedly transmitted from a plurality of transmission points in response to:
the counter value being greater than a predetermined threshold; and
the first set of consecutive data packets being transmitted from the plurality of transmission points.
5. The method of claim 1 , further comprising receiving the second set of consecutive data packets after receiving the first set of consecutive data packets, wherein the second set of consecutive data packets are repeatedly transmitted from a plurality of transmission points in response to the counter value being greater than a predetermined threshold.
6. The method of claim 1 , further comprising reducing or maintaining a number of retransmissions of the second set of consecutive data packets in response to the counter value being less than a predetermined threshold.
7. An apparatus comprising:
a receiver that receives a first set of consecutive data packets; and
a transmitter that transmits feedback corresponding to the first set of consecutive data packets, wherein the feedback comprises a counter value, wherein the counter value indicates a last consecutive number of data packet failures; wherein:
the receiver receives a second set of consecutive data packets; and
the transmitter transmits second feedback corresponding to the second set of consecutive data packets, wherein a second length of the second set of consecutive data packets is different than a first length of the first set of consecutive data packets, and the second length is determined based on a loss tolerance and the first feedback.
8. The apparatus of claim 7 , wherein the receiver receives the second set of consecutive data packets after receiving the first set of consecutive data packets, and the second set of consecutive data packets are transmitted from a second number of transmission points in response to:
the counter value being greater than a predetermined threshold; and
the first set of consecutive data packets being transmitted from a single transmission point, wherein the second number of transmission points is greater than a first number of transmission points corresponding to the first set of consecutive data packets.
9. The apparatus of claim 7 , wherein the receiver receives the second set of consecutive data packets after receiving the first set of consecutive data packets, and the second set of consecutive data packets are repeatedly transmitted from a single transmission point in response to the counter value being greater than a predetermined threshold.
10. The apparatus of claim 7 , wherein the receiver receives the second set of consecutive data packets after receiving the first set of consecutive data packets, and the second set of consecutive data packets are repeatedly transmitted from a plurality of transmission points in response to:
the counter value being greater than a predetermined threshold; and
the first set of consecutive data packets being transmitted from the plurality of transmission points.
11. The apparatus of claim 7 , wherein the receiver receives the second set of consecutive data packets after receiving the first set of consecutive data packets, and the second set of consecutive data packets are repeatedly transmitted from a plurality of transmission points in response to the counter value being greater than a predetermined threshold.
12. The apparatus of claim 7 , further comprising a processor that reduces or maintains a number of retransmissions of the second set of consecutive data packets in response to the counter value being less than a predetermined threshold.
13. A method comprising:
configuring a first plurality of uplink data packets consecutively;
counting a number of consecutive data packets of the first plurality of uplink data packets lost from a user equipment;
in response to the number of consecutive data packets reaching a predetermined threshold greater than one, configuring repetition of subsequent uplink data packets transmitted from the user equipment, wherein a second length of the subsequent uplink data packets is different than a first length of the first plurality of uplink data packets, and the second length is determined based on a loss tolerance; and
configuring a second plurality of uplink data packets consecutively.
14. The method of claim 13 , wherein the first plurality of uplink data packets is configured in a configured grant resource or using downlink control information.
15. The method of claim 13 , wherein the repetition of subsequent uplink data packets is transmitted from multiple panels of the user equipment in response to the number of consecutive data packets reaching the predetermined threshold.
16. The method of claim 13 , wherein a second plurality of uplink data packets is transmitted from multiple panels of the user equipment in response to the number of consecutive data packets reaching the predetermined threshold.
17. A method comprising:
configuring a first plurality of data packets to be transmitted consecutively;
determining a number of consecutive data packets of the first plurality of data packets lost;
in response to the number of consecutive data packets being less than a predetermined threshold that is greater than one, feedback corresponding to previous data packets, or a combination thereof, reducing a number of subsequent data packets to be transmitted consecutively, wherein a second length of the subsequent uplink data packets is different than a first length of the first plurality of data packets, and the second length is determined based on a loss tolerance; and
