Abstract

A wireless device receives one or more radio resource control (RRC) messages that indicate uplink transmission configuration indicator (TCI) states associated with cancellation indications (CIs). The wireless device receives a first DCI scheduling a transmission via uplink resources and indicating a first uplink TCI state. The wireless device receives a second DCI that includes a cancellation indication (CI) indicating cancellation resources that overlaps with the uplink resources. The wireless device drops the transmission via the uplink resources in response to the uplink TCI states including the first uplink TCI state of the transmission.

Claims (57)

1. A method comprising:

receiving, by a wireless device, one or more radio resource control (RRC) messages indicating uplink transmission configuration indicator (TCI) states associated with cancellation indications (CIs);

receiving a first DCI scheduling a transmission via uplink resources and indicating a first uplink TCI state;

receiving a second DCI comprising a cancellation indication (CI) indicating cancellation resources that overlaps with the uplink resources; and

dropping the scheduled transmission via the uplink resources before the scheduled transmission is performed, in response to the uplink TCI states comprising the first uplink TCI state.

2. The method of claim 1 , wherein the one or more RRC messages indicate that the uplink TCI states are associated with a first control resource set (coreset) pool of a transmission and reception point (TRP).

3. The method of claim 2 , wherein the second DCI is received via a coreset of the first coreset pool.

4. The method of claim 3 , wherein:

the one or more RRC messages are one or more first RRC messages;

the uplink TCI states are first TCI states;

the CIs are first CIs; and

the method further comprises receiving one or more second RRC messages indicating second uplink TCI states for second CIs of a second coreset pool.

5. The method of claim 4 , wherein:

the CI included in the second DCI is a first CI;

the cancellation resources indicated by the first CI are first cancellation resources; and

the method further comprises receiving, via the second coreset pool, a third DCI comprising a second CI indicating second cancellation resources that overlaps with the uplink resources.

6. The method of claim 5 , further comprising determining, based on the third DCI, not to drop the scheduled transmission in response to the second uplink TCI states not comprising the first uplink TCI state.

7. The method of claim 6 , wherein the second DCI indicates a downlink TCI state for the first CI.

8. The method of claim 7 , further comprising determining the uplink TCI states based on the downlink TCI state of the second DCI.

9. The method of claim 8 , wherein:

the downlink TCI state is a TCI state of the coreset of the first coreset pool; and

the wireless device receives the second DCI via the coreset of the first coreset pool.

10. The method of claim 9 , wherein the uplink TCI states are associated with the first coreset pool.

11. A wireless device comprising:

one or more processors; and

memory storing instructions that, when executed by the one or more processors, cause the wireless device to:

receive one or more radio resource control (RRC) messages indicating uplink transmission configuration indicator (TCI) states associated with cancellation indications (CIs);

receive a first DCI scheduling a transmission via uplink resources and indicating a first uplink TCI state;

receive a second DCI comprising a cancellation indication (CI) indicating cancellation resources that overlaps with the uplink resources; and

drop the scheduled transmission via the uplink resources before the scheduled transmission is performed, in response to the uplink TCI states comprising the first uplink TCI state.

12. The wireless device of claim 11 , wherein the one or more RRC messages indicate that the uplink TCI states are associated with a first control resource set (coreset) pool of a transmission and reception point (TRP).

13. The wireless device of claim 12 , wherein the second DCI is received via a coreset of the first coreset pool.

14. The wireless device of claim 13 , wherein:

the one or more RRC messages are one or more first RRC messages;

the uplink TCI states are first TCI states;

the CIs are first CIs; and

the instructions, when executed by the one or more processors, further cause the wireless device to receive one or more second RRC messages indicating second uplink TCI states for second CIs of a second coreset pool.

15. The wireless device of claim 14 , wherein:

the CI included in the second DCI is a first CI;

the cancellation resources indicated by the first CI are first cancellation resources; and

the instructions, when executed by the one or more processors, further cause the wireless device to receive, via the second coreset pool, a third DCI comprising a second CI indicating second cancellation resources that overlaps with the uplink resources.

16. The wireless device of claim 15 , wherein the instructions, when executed by the one or more processors, further cause the wireless device to determine, based on the third DCI, not to drop the scheduled transmission in response to the second uplink TCI states not comprising the first uplink TCI state.

17. The wireless device of claim 16 , wherein the second DCI indicates a downlink TCI state for the first CI.

18. The wireless device of claim 17 , wherein the instructions, when executed by the one or more processors, further cause the wireless device to determine the uplink TCI states based on the downlink TCI state of the second DCI.

19. The wireless device of claim 18 , wherein:

the downlink TCI state is a TCI state of the coreset of the first coreset pool;

the wireless device receives the second DCI via the coreset of the first coreset pool; and

the uplink TCI states are associated with the first coreset pool.

20. A system comprising:

a base station; and

a wireless device comprising:

one or more processors; and

memory storing instructions that, when executed by the one or more processors, cause the wireless device to:

receive, from the base station, one or more radio resource control (RRC) messages indicating uplink transmission configuration indicator (TCI) states associated with cancellation indications (Cis);

receive a first DCI scheduling a transmission via uplink resources and indicating a first uplink TCI state;

receive a second DCI comprising a cancellation indication (CI) indicating cancellation resources that overlaps with the uplink resources; and

drop the scheduled transmission via the uplink resources before the scheduled transmission is performed, in response to the uplink TCI states comprising the first uplink TCI state.
