Device and method for handling a hybrid automatic repeat request transmission
A communication device for handling a hybrid automatic repeat request (HARQ) transmission, comprises at least one storage device; and at least one processing circuit, coupled to the at least one storage device, wherein the at least one storage device stores instructions, and the at least one processing circuit is configured to execute the instructions of: receiving a configuration from a network, wherein the configuration comprises a time domain resource allocation (TDRA) table and a set of a plurality of timing values; and receiving a downlink (DL) control information (DCI) from the network, wherein the DCI indicates a row of the TDRA table for at least one physical DL shared channel (PDSCH) reception and indicates a timing value of the set of the plurality of timing values for the HARQ transmission corresponding to the at least one PDSCH reception.
1. A communication device for handling a hybrid automatic repeat request (HARQ) transmission, comprising:
at least one storage device; and
at least one processing circuit, coupled to the at least one storage device, wherein the at least one storage device stores instructions, and the at least one processing circuit is configured to execute the instructions of:
receiving a configuration from a network, wherein the configuration comprises a time domain resource allocation (TDRA) table and a set of a plurality of timing values, wherein the TDRA table has a row that comprises a plurality of entries, wherein each of the plurality of entries has a start and length indicator value (SLIV), a mapping type and a scheduling offset; and
receiving a downlink (DL) control information (DCI) from the network, wherein the DCI indicates the row of the TDRA table for a plurality of physical DL shared channel (PDSCH) receptions and indicates a timing value of the set of the plurality of timing values for the HARQ transmission corresponding to the plurality of PDSCH receptions.
2. The communication device of claim 1 , wherein the plurality of PDSCH receptions does not overlap with an uplink (UL) symbol.
3. The communication device of claim 1 , further comprising:
receiving a grouping factor from the network to determine the HARQ transmission.
4. The communication device of claim 3 , wherein the grouping factor is received via a radio resource control (RRC) message, the DCI or a media access control control element (MAC CE).
5. The communication device of claim 3 , wherein the grouping factor is predefined.
6. The communication device of claim 3 , wherein the grouping factor is user equipment (UE)-specific.
7. The communication device of claim 3 , wherein a plurality of information bits of the plurality of PDSCH receptions are jointly operated for the HARQ transmission, if the grouping factor is received.
8. The communication device of claim 7 , wherein the plurality of information bits of the plurality of PDSCH receptions are jointly operated for the HARQ transmission according to a AND operation.
9. The communication device of claim 1 , wherein the timing value of the set of the plurality of timing values is applied to a slot for the last PDSCH reception of the plurality of PDSCH receptions scheduled by the DCI.
10. A method of handling a hybrid automatic repeat request (HARQ) transmission, comprising:
receiving a configuration from a network, wherein the configuration comprises a time domain resource allocation (TDRA) table and a set of a plurality of timing values, wherein the TDRA table has a row that comprises a plurality of entries, wherein each of the plurality of entries has a start and length indicator value (SLIV), a mapping type and a scheduling offset; and
