A device for communicating in a wireless communication network to transmit transmission information by transmitting a wireless signal in a random access channel of wireless communication network includes a wireless interface configured for transmitting the wireless signal and a control unit configured for providing the wireless signals so as to include a random access preamble. The control unit is configured for selecting the random access preamble/that the random access preamble is associated with the transmission information.

Data-centric event-based random access procedure

A user device, UE, for one or more wireless communication systems, includes one or more transceiver chains. The UE shares at least one transceiver chain with at least two connections to the one or more wireless communication systems. The UE is connected to one or more network entities, like a gNB or another UE, with the connections, and perform one or more operations on the connections at respective operation occasions. When the UE transmits or receives on a current one of the connections, it does not to transmit or receive on the other connections.

Enhanced multi-connection operations

A user device, UE, for a wireless communication system is described. The wireless communication system includes a plurality of user devices, UEs. The UE communicates with one or more transmitting UEs using a sidelink, supports a certain number of HARQ processes, and buffers one or more transmissions for each HARQ process. During a unicast communication with a transmitting UE using the sidelink, the UE receives from the transmitting UE a transmission during a transmission time interval, the transmission associated to control data, e.g. SCI, including a HARQ process ID, buffers the received transmission for the HARQ process, and combines the buffered transmissions prior to decoding. In case a successfully identified transmission is not buffered, the UE indicates to the transmitting UE that the transmission is not buffered at the UE.

V2X HARQ process management

A user equipment, UE, for a wireless communication network including one or more base stations, performs a transmission to a base station using a grant-free, GF, transmission scheme. The transmission being performed in accordance with a GF transmission configuration. The UE receives from the base station a certain signaling. The certain signaling indicates that the base station failed to identify the UE from the transmission. Responsive to the certain signaling from the base station, the UE retransmits the transmission in accordance with a GF retransmission configuration. The GF retransmission configuration is different from the GF transmission configuration.

ARQ/HARQ-related procedure for grant-free random access

Communication devices are provided that facilitate receiving information units and providing feedback to other communication devices.

Embodiments provide an apparatus, wherein the apparatus includes

HARQ process / entity based uplink multiplexing

A wireless communication system includes a plurality of user devices, UEs, and at least one logical group defined in accordance with one or more logical group criteria. The logical group includes a plurality of member UEs to be connected via sidelink for sidelink communication with each other, and all member UEs of the logical group have assigned the same destination identification, ID, the destination ID being unique for the logical group.

Groupcast procedures for V2X

According to embodiments (main aspect), a wireless communication system includes one or more base stations and a plurality of user equipment UEs. The plurality of user equipment is configured for a sidelink communication (e.g., a sidelink transmission), wherein a sidelink communication includes one or more sidelink frames each having a control region and a data region wherein the control region includes a first control region and a second control region, wherein the first control region including basic information regarding a sidelink transmission of a packet, the second control region including information regarding data transmission resource location or data transmission resource locations of the packet. Here, a transmission of the packet uses more than a single data transmission resource location in a single sidelink frame, and/or wherein the packet is to be transmitted in data transmission resource locations across one or more subsequent sidelink frames, or wherein multiple versions of the packet are to be transmitted in data transmission resource locations across one or more subsequent sidelink frames.

Wireless communication system having a specific sidelink frame structure

A transceiver configured for communicating in a wireless communication network being operated so as to schedule communication in a communication channel being organized in a plurality of resources; is configured for performing long-term sensing an utilization of the channel by decoding a data traffic; for estimating a usability of resources of the channel for an own transmission based on the decoding; and for scheduling the own transmission based on the usability of the resources.

Transceivers and methods for operating the same

A wireless communication system includes one or more base stations, and one or more user devices, UEs. The base station is configured to transmit data to a UE being served by the base station, the data including control data and user data, the user data including at least first user data and second user data, the first user data associated with a first service and second data associated with second service, the first and second services having one or more different transmission requirements. Responsive to receiving in the control data a grant for a feedback transmission, the UE is configured to send a feedback to the base station, the feedback indicating for one or more data blocks of the data a successful or non-successful reception at the UE. The control data includes a first downlink assignment index, DAI, associated with the first data, and a second DAI associated with the second data.

URLLC DAI and LTI

An apparatus for a wireless communication system is describes. The wireless communication system includes one or more base stations and a plurality of user devices, UEs. The apparatus is configured to be connected to one or more UEs via a sidelink for a sidelink communication with the one or more UEs, the apparatus and the one or more UEs forming a group of UEs and using a set of group resources to be used for the sidelink communication within the group of UEs. In case a base station does not provide resource allocation configuration or assistance, the apparatus is configured to select resources from a set of resources provided by the wireless communication system so as to alter or completely change the set of group resources to be used for the sidelink communication within the group of UEs.
