User equipments, base stations and methods for a priority of uplink transmission(s)
A user equipment (UE) is described. The UE includes receiving circuitry configured to receive on a physical downlink control channel (PDCCH), a downlink control information (DCI) format used for scheduling of a physical downlink shared channel (PDSCH). The UE further includes transmitting circuitry configured to perform hybrid automatic repeat request-acknowledgment (HARQ-ACK) transmission which is identified as a high priority. The transmitting circuitry is further configured to perform HARQ-ACK transmission corresponding to the PDSCH scheduled by using a PDCCH for the DCI format which is detected in a common search space associated with a control resource set #0 (a CORESET #0).
1. A user equipment (UE) comprising:
receiving circuitry configured to receive a first downlink control information (DCI) format used for scheduling a physical downlink shared channel (PDSCH), and receive a second DCI format used for scheduling a physical uplink shared channel (PUSCH);
processing circuitry configured to identify a priority of a hybrid automatic repeat request-acknowledgment (HARQ-ACK) transmission and a priority of the PUSCH based on the first DCI format and the second DCI format, respectively, wherein
the priority of the HARQ-ACK transmission is identified by a first priority indicator included in the first DCI format,
the priority of the PUSCH is identified by a second priority indicator included in the second DCI format,
the first priority indicator indicates whether the priority of the HARQ-ACK transmission is a high priority or a low priority, and
the second priority indicator indicates whether the priority of the PUSCH is the high priority or the low priority; and
transmitting circuitry configured to perform a transmission of the PUSCH and drop a transmission of a physical uplink control channel (PUCCH) for the HARQ-ACK transmission, wherein
in response to determining that a) the PUSCH overlaps with the PUCCH for the HARQ-ACK transmission, b) the priority of the PUSCH is identified as the high priority by the second priority indicator, and c) the priority of the HARQ-ACK transmission is identified as the low priority by the first priority indicator, the transmission of the PUSCH is performed and the transmission of the PUCCH is dropped.
2. The UE of claim 1 , wherein
regardless of DCI in the first DCI format being a time domain resource assignment for the PDSCH, the first priority indicator indicates whether the priority of the HARQ-ACK transmission is the high priority or the low priority.
3. A method performed by a user equipment (UE) comprising:
receiving a first downlink control information (DCI) format used for scheduling a physical downlink shared channel (PDSCH);
receiving a second DCI format used for scheduling a physical uplink shared channel (PUSCH);
identifying a priority of a hybrid automatic repeat request-acknowledgment (HARQ-ACK) transmission and a priority of the PUSCH based on the first DCI format and the second DCI format, respectively, wherein
the priority of the HARQ-ACK transmission is identified by a first priority indicator included in the first DCI format,
the priority of the PUSCH is identified by a second priority indicator included in the second DCI format,
the first priority indicator indicates whether the priority of the HARQ-ACK transmission is a high priority or a low priority, and
the second priority indicator indicates whether the priority of the PUSCH is the high priority or the low priority; and
performing a transmission of the PUSCH and dropping a transmission of a physical uplink control channel (PUCCH) for the HARQ-ACK transmission, wherein
in response to determining that a) the PUSCH overlaps with the PUCCH for the HARQ-ACK transmission, b) the priority of the PUSCH is identified as the high priority by the second priority indicator, and c) the priority of the HARQ-ACK transmission is identified as the low priority by the first priority indicator, the transmission of the PUSCH is performed and the transmission of the PUCCH is dropped.
4. A base station comprising:
transmitting circuitry configured to transmit a first downlink control information (DCI) format used for scheduling a physical downlink shared channel (PDSCH), and transmit a second DCI format used for scheduling a physical uplink shared channel (PUSCH); and
receiving circuitry configured to receive a transmission of the PUSCH without receiving a transmission of a physical uplink control channel (PUCCH) for a hybrid automatic repeat request-acknowledgment (HARQ-ACK) transmission, wherein
the PUSCH overlaps with the PUCCH for the HARQ-ACK transmission, a priority of the PUSCH is identified as a high priority by a second priority indicator included in the second DCI format, and a priority of the HARQ-ACK transmission is identified as a low priority by a first priority indicator included in the first DCI format.
5. The base station of claim 4 , wherein
regardless of DCI in the first DCI format being a time domain resource assignment for the PDSCH, the first priority indicator indicates whether the priority of the HARQ-ACK transmission is the high priority or the low priority.
