Configured grants based on channel quality or repetition level
A method and apparatus for configured grants based on channel quality and/or repetition level in a wireless communication system is provided. A wireless device receives a configured grant which is mapped to a channel quality, determines the channel quality of the wireless device, and performs data transmission based on the configured grant.
1. A method performed by a wireless device operating in a wireless communication system, the method comprising:
receiving, from a network via dedicated signaling upon leaving a connected state, a configuration of a configured grant which is mapped to a specific coverage extension (CE) level;
determining the specific CE level as a current CE level; and
performing, while leaving the connected state, data transmission to the network based on the configured grant mapped to the current CE level,
wherein multiple configured grants including the configured grant are mapped to multiple CE levels, respectively.
2. The method of claim 1 , further comprising activating the configured grant.
3. The method of claim 2 , further comprising transmitting information for the activated configured grant to a network.
4. The method of claim 1 , further comprising transmitting a request for activation of the configured grant to a network; and
receiving an activation command for the configured grant from the network.
5. The method of claim 1 , further comprising detecting that the current CE level changes.
6. The method of claim 5 , further comprising deactivating the configured grant.
7. The method of claim 6 , further comprising transmitting information that the current CE level changes and/or the configured grant is deactivated.
8. The method of claim 6 , further comprising activating a second configured grant mapped to the changed current CE level.
9. The method of claim 8 , further comprising transmitting information for the second configured grant mapped to the changed current CE level to a network.
10. The method of claim 6 , further comprising transmitting a request for activation of a second configured grant mapped to the changed current CE level grant to a network; and
receiving an activation command for the second configured grant mapped to the changed current CE level from the network.
11. The method of claim 1 , wherein the wireless device is in communication with at least one of a mobile device, a network, and/or autonomous vehicles other than the wireless device.
12. A wireless device operating in a wireless communication system, the wireless device comprising:
at least one transceiver;
at least one processor; and
at least one computer memory operably connectable to the at least one processor and storing instructions that, based on being executed by the at least one processor, perform operations comprising:
receiving, from a network via dedicated signaling upon leaving a connected state, a configuration of a configured grant which is mapped to a specific coverage extension (CE) level;
determining the specific CE level as a current CE level; and
performing, while leaving the connected state, data transmission to the network based on the configured grant mapped to the current CE level,
wherein multiple configured grants including the configured grant are mapped to multiple CE levels, respectively.
13. An apparatus configured operating in a wireless communication system, the apparatus comprising:
at least one processor; and
at least one memory coupled to the at least one processor,
wherein the at least one processor is configured to perform operations comprising:
obtaining, upon leaving a connected state, a configuration of a configured grant which is mapped to a specific coverage extension (CE) level;
determining the specific CE level as a current CE level; and
controlling, while leaving the connected state, data transmission network based on the configured grant mapped to the current CE level,
wherein multiple configured grants including the configured grant are mapped to multiple CE levels, respectively.
