Abstract

A user equipment (UE) is described. The UE includes circuitry configured to determine that a physical uplink control channel (PUCCH) with low priority (LP) overlaps with a high priority (HP) PUCCH carrying a HP hybrid automatic repeat request-acknowledgement (HARQ-ACK) and a HP PUCCH with a positive HP scheduling request (SR). The HP PUCCH with HP HARQ-ACK does not overlap with the HP PUCCH with the positive HP SR. The circuitry is further configured to multiplex a LP HARQ-ACK only with the HP HARQ-ACK.

Claims (36)

1. A user equipment (UE), comprising:

circuitry configured to:

determine that a physical uplink control channel (PUCCH) with low priority (LP) overlaps with a high priority (HP) PUCCH carrying a HP hybrid automatic repeat request-acknowledgement (HARQ-ACK) and a HP PUCCH with a positive HP scheduling request (SR), wherein the HP PUCCH with HP HARQ-ACK does not overlap with the HP PUCCH with the positive HP SR;

multiplex a LP HARQ-ACK only with the HP HARQ-ACK on a HP PUCCH resource configured for HP HARQ-ACK.

2. A user equipment (UE), comprising:

circuitry configured to:

determine that a physical uplink control channel (PUCCH) with low priority (LP) overlaps with a high priority (HP) PUCCH carrying a HP hybrid automatic repeat request-acknowledgement (HARQ-ACK) and a HP PUCCH with a positive HP scheduling request (SR), wherein the HP PUCCH with HP HARQ-ACK does not overlap with the HP PUCCH with the positive HP SR;

multiplex, based on a timeline, a LP HARQ-ACK with an uplink control information (UCI) of an earliest overlapping HP PUCCH.

3. A user equipment (UE), comprising:

circuitry configured to:

determine that a physical uplink control channel (PUCCH) with low priority (LP) overlaps with a high priority (HP) PUCCH carrying a HP hybrid automatic repeat request-acknowledgement (HARQ-ACK) and a HP PUCCH with a positive HP scheduling request (SR), wherein the HP PUCCH with HP HARQ-ACK does not overlap with the HP PUCCH with the positive HP SR;

multiplex, based on an LP HARQ-ACK payload and a PUCCH format for the positive HP SR, the LP HARQ-ACK on an HP SR PUCCH resource if there is up to 2 bits of LP HARQ-ACK and if multiplexing for a PUCCH combination between LP HARQ-ACK and HP SR is supported;

multiplex the LP HARQ-ACK with the HP HARQ-ACK on an HP PUCCH resource configured for HP HARQ-ACK if there is more than 2 bits of LP HARQ-ACK or if multiplexing for a PUCCH combination between LP HARQ-ACK and HP SR is not supported.

4. A user equipment (UE), comprising:

circuitry configured to:

determine that a physical uplink control channel (PUCCH) with low priority (LP) overlaps with a high priority (HP) PUCCH carrying a HP hybrid automatic repeat request-acknowledgement (HARQ-ACK) and a HP PUCCH with a positive HP scheduling request (SR), wherein the HP PUCCH with HP HARQ-ACK does not overlap with the HP PUCCH with the positive HP SR;

multiplex, if downlink control information (DCI) indicates enabling of multiplexing with a HP HARQ-ACK on an overlapping HP PUCCH for HARQ-ACK, the LP HARQ-ACK with the indicated HP HARQ-ACK on a HP PUCCH resource configured for HP HARQ-ACK;

multiplex, if downlink control information (DCI) does not indicate enabling of multiplexing with a HP HARQ-ACK on an overlapping HP PUCCH for HARQ-ACK, the LP HARQ-ACK with the HP SR.

5. A base station (gNB), comprising:

circuitry configured to:

determine that a physical uplink control channel (PUCCH) with low priority (LP) overlaps with a high priority (HP) PUCCH carrying a HP hybrid automatic repeat request-acknowledgement (HARQ-ACK) and a HP PUCCH with a positive HP scheduling request (SR), wherein the HP PUCCH with HP HARQ-ACK does not overlap with the HP PUCCH with the positive HP SR;

receive the multiplexed LP HARQ-ACK and the HP HARQ-ACK on a HP PUCCH resource configured for HP HARQ-ACK.

6. A base station (gNB), comprising:

circuitry configured to:

determine that a physical uplink control channel (PUCCH) with low priority (LP) overlaps with a high priority (HP) PUCCH carrying a HP hybrid automatic repeat request-acknowledgement (HARQ-ACK) and a HP PUCCH with a positive HP scheduling request (SR), wherein the HP PUCCH with HP HARQ-ACK does not overlap with the HP PUCCH with the positive HP SR;

receive, based on a timeline, a multiplexed LP HARQ-ACK and an uplink control information (UCI) of an earliest overlapping HP PUCCH.

7. A base station (gNB), comprising:

circuitry configured to:

determine that a physical uplink control channel (PUCCH) with low priority (LP) overlaps with a high priority (HP) PUCCH carrying a HP hybrid automatic repeat request-acknowledgement (HARQ-ACK) and a HP PUCCH with a positive HP scheduling request (SR), wherein the HP PUCCH with HP HARQ-ACK does not overlap with the HP PUCCH with the positive HP SR;

receive, based on an LP HARQ-ACK payload and a PUCCH format for the positive HP SR, the multiplexed LP HARQ-ACK on an HP SR PUCCH resource if there is up to 2 bits of LP HARQ-ACK and if multiplexing for a PUCCH combination between LP HARQ-ACK and HP SR is supported;

receive the multiplexed LP HARQ-ACK and the HP HARQ-ACK on an HP PUCCH resource configured for HP HARQ-ACK if there is more than 2 bits of LP HARQ-ACK or if multiplexing for a PUCCH combination between LP HARQ-ACK and HP SR is not supported.

8. A base station (gNB), comprising:

circuitry configured to:

determine that a physical uplink control channel (PUCCH) with low priority (LP) overlaps with a high priority (HP) PUCCH carrying a HP hybrid automatic repeat request-acknowledgement (HARQ-ACK) and a HP PUCCH with a positive HP scheduling request (SR), wherein the HP PUCCH with HP HARQ-ACK does not overlap with the HP PUCCH with the positive HP SR;

receive, if downlink control information (DCI) indicates enabling of multiplexing with a HP HARQ-ACK on an overlapping HP PUCCH for HARQ-ACK, the LP HARQ-ACK with the indicated HP HARQ-ACK on a HP PUCCH resource configured for HP HARQ-ACK;

receive, if downlink control information (DCI) does not indicate enabling of multiplexing with a HP HARQ-ACK on an overlapping HP PUCCH for HARQ-ACK, the LP HARQ-ACK with the HP SR.
