Radio network node, user equipment (UE) and methods performed in a wireless communication network
Embodiments herein disclose e.g. a method performed by user equipment, UE, ( 10 ) for handling uplink, UL, communications in a wireless communication network. The UE ( 10 ) receives from a radio network node ( 12 ), an indication with an uplink grant, wherein the indication indicates that a radio resource scheduled by the UL grant for UL transmission is for a type of data. The UE ( 10 ) uses the radio resource for transmission of that type of data.
1. A method performed by user equipment, UE, for handling uplink, UL, communications in a wireless communication network, the method comprising:
receiving from a radio network node, an indication with an uplink grant, wherein the indication indicates that a radio resource scheduled by the uplink grant is for UL transmission of a type of data, wherein the indication is dynamic according to the uplink grant, wherein the uplink grant is considered de-prioritized when the indication indicates that the uplink grant is cancelled; and
using the radio resource for transmission of that type of data.
2. The method according to claim 1 , wherein the indication indicates indirectly that the radio resource scheduled for UL transmission is for the type of data by indicating that high priority data should not be transmitted on the radio resource scheduled for UL transmission and the UE avoids transmitting high priority data on the radio resource.
3. The method according to claim 1 , wherein the indication is indicating the radio resource not to be used for high priority data transmissions and/or the radio resource that is not robust.
4. The method according to claim 1 , wherein using is under a restriction whereby pre-emption of transmissions is not allowed for a logical channel, and wherein data of such logical channel is not allowed to be transmitted on the resource of the UL grant when the indication is received and indicates the resource of the UL grant is subject to pre-emption.
5. The method according to claim 1 , wherein using comprises transmitting data on the radio resource subject to pre-emption, if pre-emption probability is less than x %.
6. The method according to claim 1 , wherein the indication is a warning message transmitted on a higher-layer, to indicate a time-frequency resource that is subject to pre-emption.
7. The method according to claim 1 , wherein the indication includes a time duration for which the indication is valid.
8. A method performed by a radio network node for handling communications in a wireless communication network, the method comprising:
scheduling a user equipment, UE, with a radio resource for an uplink, UL, data transmission, wherein a first radio resource is more reliable in transmission than a second radio resource, wherein the first radio resource and the second radio resource are scheduled for different types of data traffic; and
sending an indication with an uplink grant to a user equipment, UE, when scheduling the radio resource for the UL data transmission, wherein the indication indicates that the scheduled radio resource for UL data transmission is for a type of data, wherein the indication is dynamic according to the uplink grant, wherein the uplink grant is considered de-prioritized when the indication indicates that the uplink grant is cancelled.
9. A user equipment, UE, for handling uplink, UL, communications in a wireless communication network, wherein the UE is configured to:
receive from a radio network node, an indication with an uplink grant, wherein the indication indicates that a radio resource scheduled by the uplink grant for UL transmission is for a type of data, wherein the indication is dynamic according to the uplink grant, wherein the uplink grant is considered de-prioritized when the indication indicates that the uplink grant is cancelled; and
use the radio resource for transmission of that type of data.
10. The UE according to claim 9 , wherein the indication indicates indirectly that the radio resource scheduled for UL transmission is for the type of data by indicating that high priority data should not be transmitted on the radio resource scheduled for UL transmission and the UE is configured to avoid transmitting high priority data on the radio resource.
11. The UE according to claim 9 , wherein the indication is indicating the radio resource not to be used for high priority data transmissions and/or the radio resource that is not robust.
12. The UE according to claim 9 , wherein the UE is configured to use the radio resource under a restriction indicating that pre-emption of transmissions is not allowed for a logical channel, and wherein data of such logical channel is not allowed to be transmitted when the indication is received and pointing at the radio resource of the UL grant.
13. The UE according to claim 9 , wherein the UE is configured to use the radio resource by transmitting data on the radio resource subject to pre-emption, if pre-emption probability is less than x %.
14. The UE according to claim 9 , wherein the indication is a warning message transmitted on a higher-layer, to indicate a time-frequency resource that is subject to pre-emption of transmissions.
15. The UE according to claim 9 , wherein the indication includes a time duration for which the indication is valid.
16. The UE according to claim 9 , wherein the UE is configured to use the radio resource in that the UE is configured to avoid multiplexing high priority uplink control information onto a best-effort physical uplink shared channel, PUSCH, transmission.
17. The UE according to claim 9 , wherein the indication indicates the radio resource to be subject to pre-emption.
18. A radio network node for handling communications in a wireless communication network, wherein the radio network node is configured to:
schedule a user equipment, UE, with a radio resource for an uplink, UL, data transmission, wherein a first radio resource is more reliable in transmission than a second radio resource, wherein the first radio resource and the second radio resource are scheduled for different types of data traffic; and
send an indication with an uplink grant to the UE, when scheduling the radio resource for the UL data transmission, wherein the indication indicates that the scheduled radio resource for the UL data transmission is for a type of data, wherein the indication is dynamic according to the uplink grant, wherein the uplink grant is considered de-prioritized when the indication indicates that the uplink grant is cancelled.
19. The radio network node according to claim 18 , wherein the indication indicates indirectly that the radio resource scheduled for the UL transmission is for the type of data by indicating that high priority data should not be transmitted on the radio resource scheduled for UL transmission and the UE avoids transmitting high priority data on the radio resource.
20. The radio network node according to claim 18 , wherein the indication is indicating the radio resource subject to pre-emption and/or the radio resource that is not robust.
21. The radio network node according to claim 18 , configured with a restriction indicating that pre-emption of transmissions is not allowed for a logical channel, and wherein data of such logical channel is not allowed to be transmitted when the indication is received pointing at the radio resource of the UL grant.
22. The radio network node according to claim 21 , wherein the radio network node is further configured to
receive data on the radio resource to be pre-empted if pre-emption probability is less than x %.
23. The radio network node according to claim 18 , wherein the indication is a warning message transmitted on a higher-layer, to indicate a time-frequency resource that is subject to pre-emption of transmissions.
24. The radio network node according to claim 18 , wherein the indication includes a time duration for which the indication is valid.
25. The radio network node according to claim 18 , wherein the indication indicates that the UE avoids multiplexing high priority uplink control information onto best-effort physical uplink shared channel, PUSCH, transmission.
