Uplink scheduling grant for a plurality of physical uplink shared channels
A method performed by a wireless device 410 is provided for receiving an uplink scheduling grant for a plurality of physical uplink shared channels (PUSCHs). The method includes receiving, from a network node 460 , downlink control information (DCI). The DCI includes an indication corresponding to at least a time domain resource for each of the plurality of PUSCHs. Based on the indication, uplink scheduling grant resources are determined for the plurality of PUSCHs. At least one transmission is sent according to the determined uplink scheduling grant resources.
1. A method performed by a wireless device for receiving an uplink scheduling grant for a plurality of physical uplink shared channels (PUSCHS), the method comprising:
receiving, from a network node, a Radio Resource Control (RRC) message comprising a plurality of RRC patterns for use in sending the PUSCHs, each RRC pattern indicating a start and an end of each of the plurality of PUSCHs;
receiving, from the network node, downlink control information (DCI), the DCI comprising an indication corresponding to an RRC pattern to be used for uplink transmission;
based on the indication, determining uplink scheduling grant resources for the plurality of PUSCHs; and
sending at least one uplink transmission according to the determined uplink scheduling grant resources.
2. The method of claim 1 , wherein the plurality of PUSCHs comprise a plurality of partial slots or mini-slots, each partial slot or mini-slot being less than a full slot.
3. The method of claim 2 , further comprising:
receiving, from a network node, a periodicity identifying a number of symbols in each of the plurality of partial slots or mini-slots.
4. The method of claim 2 , wherein a particular partial slot within the plurality of partial slots begins at a first enabled PUSCH starting position within the subset of the plurality of PUSCH starting positions and ends at a next enabled PUSCH starting position within the subset of the plurality of PUSCH starting positions.
5. The method of claim 2 , wherein the DCI indicates implicitly at which mini-slot within the RRC pattern the uplink transmission should start and end.
6. A wireless device for receiving scheduling for a plurality of physical uplink shared channels (PUSCHs), the wireless device comprising:
memory operable to store instructions; and
processing circuitry operable to execute the instructions to cause the wireless device to:
receive, from a network node, a Radio Resource Control (RRC) message comprising a plurality of RRC patterns for use in sending the PUSCHs, each RRC pattern indicating a start and an end of each of the plurality of PUSCHs;
receive, from the network node, downlink control information (DCI), the DCI comprising an indication corresponding to an RRC pattern to be used for uplink transmission;
based on the indication, determine uplink scheduling grant resources for the plurality of PUSCHs; and
send at least one uplink transmission according to the determined uplink scheduling grant resources.
7. A method performed by a network node for scheduling a wireless device for transmission in a plurality of physical uplink shared channels (PUSCHs), the method comprising:
transmitting, to the wireless device, a Radio Resource Control (RRC) message comprising a plurality of RRC patterns for use in sending the PUSCHs, each RRC pattern indicating a start and an end of each of the plurality of PUSCHs;
transmitting, to the wireless device, an uplink grant comprising downlink control information (DCI) indicating the pattern to be used by the wireless device for uplink transmissions
based on the uplink grant, receiving at least one uplink transmission for the plurality of PUSCHs.
8. The method of claim 7 , wherein the plurality of PUSCHs comprise a plurality of partial slots or mini-slots, each partial slot or mini-slot being less than a full slot.
9. The method of claim 8 , further comprising:
transmitting, to the wireless device, a periodicity identifying a number of symbols in each of the plurality of partial slots.
10. The method of claim 8 , wherein the DCI indicates implicitly at which mini-slot within the RRC pattern the uplink transmission should start and end.
11. A network node for scheduling a wireless device for transmission in a plurality of physical uplink shared channels (PUSCHs), the network node comprising:
memory operable to store instructions; and
processing circuitry operable to execute the instructions to cause the network node to:
transmit, to the wireless device, a Radio Resource Control (RRC) message comprising a plurality of RRC patterns for use in sending the PUSCHs, each RRC pattern indicating a start and an end of each of the plurality of PUSCHs;
transmit, to the wireless device, an uplink grant comprising downlink control information (DCI) indicating an RRC pattern to be used by the wireless device for uplink transmissions;
based on the uplink grant, receive at least one uplink transmission for the plurality of PUSCHs.
