4. A method comprising:
receiving one or more scheduling configurations for a specific logical channel, wherein each scheduling configuration comprises an offset for hybrid automatic repeat request process identity and the one or more scheduling configurations comprise a plurality of periodicities; and
reserving resource for receiving data according to a plurality of configured grants based on the one or more scheduling configurations, the plurality of configured grants comprising two adjacent configured grants, wherein a spacing between the two adjacent configured grants is determined based at least in part on a sum of the plurality of periodicities of the one or more scheduling configurations,
wherein the offset for the hybrid automatic repeat request process identity is configured for the logical channel and is common to each scheduling configuration of the one or more scheduling configurations.
5. The method of claim 4 , wherein the one or more scheduling configurations comprise more than one scheduling configurations and the plurality of periodicities comprise at least two different periodicities.
6. The method of claim 4 , wherein:
the one or more scheduling configurations comprise only one scheduling configuration.
7. The method of claim 6 , wherein factor for configured grant is included in the only one scheduling configuration for indicating how many grants are configured a periodicity of the plurality of periodicities.
8. The method of claim 4 , further comprising receiving one or more control information which determines occasions of the plurality configured grants.
9. The method of claim 8 , wherein a number of the control information equals to a value of a factor for configured grant, and each control information indicates a starting occasion of a plurality of first configured grants for a scheduling configuration of the one or more scheduling configurations.
10. The method of claim 9 , wherein each scheduling configuration of the one or more scheduling configurations further comprises a periodicity of the plurality of periodicities and a spacing between any two adjacent first configured grants equals to the periodicity of the scheduling configuration.
11. The method of claim 8 , wherein if only one control information is received, the control information indicating a starting occasion of the plurality of configured grants.
12. The method of claim 11 , wherein the spacing between the two adjacent configured grants is further determined based at least in part on a factor for configured grant.
13. The method of claim 4 , wherein each of the one or more scheduling configurations further comprises a quality of service flow identity, a radio bearer identity, a logical channel identity, or some combination thereof.
14. The method of claim 4 , wherein the offset for the hybrid automatic repeat request process identity is configured per quality of service flow, per radio bearer, or per scheduling configuration group.
15. The method of claim 14 , wherein the one or more scheduling configurations for the specific logical channel have the same offset for the hybrid automatic repeat request process identity.
16. The method of claim 4 , wherein the one or more scheduling configurations are semi-persistent scheduling or configured grant configurations.
17. The method of claim 4 , wherein the one or more scheduling configurations comprise only one scheduling configuration and a factor for configured grant is included in the scheduling configuration for indicating multiple grants are configured in a periodicity of the plurality of periodicities.
18. The method of claim 4 , wherein the one or more scheduling configurations comprise more than one scheduling configurations, more than one control information each indicating a starting occasion of a plurality of first configured grants for the scheduling configuration are received, the configured grants are determined according to each scheduling configuration and control information, and the configured grants are enabled according to a predefined regulation or an indication.
19. The method of claim 18 , wherein:
the first configured grant is enabled with a periodicity of the sum of the plurality of periodicities of the one or more scheduling configurations;
the first configured grant is enabled every Z configured grants, and Z is a configured integer;
or a combination thereof.
20. An apparatus comprising:
a receiver that receives one or more scheduling configurations for a specific logical channel, wherein each scheduling configuration comprises an offset for hybrid automatic repeat request process identity and the one or more scheduling configurations comprise a plurality of periodicities; and
a processor that reserves resource for receiving data according to a plurality of configured grants based on the one or more scheduling configurations, the plurality of configured grants comprising two adjacent configured grants, wherein a spacing between the two adjacent configured grants is determined based at least in part on a sum of the plurality of periodicities of the one or more scheduling configurations,
wherein the offset for the hybrid automatic repeat request process identity is configured for the logical channel and is common to each scheduling configuration of the one or more scheduling configurations.
