Abstract

The present invention relates to a method of transmitting a scheduling request (SR) by a user equipment (UE) in a wireless communication system. In particular, the method includes the steps of: receiving an uplink shared channel (UL-SCH) resource; based on the UL-SCH resource being overlapped with another resource and the UL-SCH resource being deprioritized, triggering an SR for informing that the UL-SCH resource is deprioritized while having data available for transmission on the UL-SCH resource; and transmitting the SR to a network.

Claims (31)

1. A method for transmitting a scheduling request (SR) by a user equipment (UE) in a wireless communication system, the method comprising:

receiving an uplink grant including an uplink shared channel (UL-SCH) resource;

based on data being available for transmission on the UL-SCH resource and based on the UL-SCH resource being overlapped with another uplink resource of which priority is higher than a priority of the UL-SCH resource, triggering an SR for requesting a retransmission uplink grant related to the data; and

transmitting the SR to a network.

2. The method according to claim 1 , further comprising:

generating a data unit for transmission on the UL-SCH resource.

3. The method according to claim 2 , wherein the triggered SR is related to a logical channel having a highest priority, among at least one logical channel belonging to the data unit.

4. The method according to claim 2 , further comprising:

storing the data unit in a buffer related with the UL-SCH resource.

5. A user equipment (UE) in a wireless communication system, the UE comprising:

at least one transceiver;

at least one processor; and

at least one computer memory operably connectable to the at least one processor and storing instructions that, when executed, cause the at least one processor to perform operations comprising:

receiving an uplink grant including an uplink shared channel (UL-SCH) resource;

based on data being available for transmission on the UL-SCH resource and based on the UL-SCH resource being overlapped with another uplink resource of which priority is higher than a priority of the UL-SCH resource, triggering a scheduling request (SR) for requesting a retransmission uplink grant related to the data; and

transmitting the SR to a network.

6. The UE according to claim 5 , wherein the operations further comprise:

generating a data unit for transmission on the UL-SCH resource.

7. The UE according to claim 6 , wherein the triggered SR is related to a logical channel having a highest priority, among at least one logical channel belonging to the data unit.

8. The UE according to claim 6 , wherein the operations further comprise:

storing the data unit in a buffer related with the UL-SCH resource.

9. An apparatus for a user equipment (UE), the apparatus comprising:

at least one processor; and

at least one computer memory operably connectable to the at least one processor and storing instructions that, when executed, cause the at least one processor to perform operations comprising:

receiving an uplink grant including an uplink shared channel (UL-SCH) resource;

based on data being available for transmission on the UL-SCH resource and based on the UL-SCH resource being overlapped with another uplink resource of which priority is higher than a priority of the UL-SCH resource, triggering a scheduling request (SR) for requesting a retransmission uplink grant related to the data; and

transmitting the SR to a network.

10. A non-transitory computer readable storage medium storing at least one computer program comprising instructions that, when executed by at least one processor, cause the at least one processor to perform operations for a user equipment (UE), the operations comprising:

receiving information on an uplink shared channel (UL-SCH) resource;

based on data being available for transmission on the UL-SCH resource and based on the UL-SCH resource being overlapped with another uplink resource of which priority is higher than a priority of the UL-SCH resource, triggering a scheduling request (SR) for requesting a retransmission uplink grant related to the data; and

transmitting the SR to a network.
