Systems and methods of the present disclosure are directed to a method performed by a wireless communication device. The method includes receiving, from a network node, information that configures the wireless communication device for a Configured Grant (CG) based Physical Uplink Shared Channel (PUSCH) transmission with PUSCH repetitions towards two or more transmissions/reception points (TRPs). The method includes performing the CG based PUSCH transmission with PUSCH repetitions towards the multiple TRPs in accordance with the received information.

Configured grant based PUSCH transmission to multiple TRPs

A method of producing a set of coded bits from a set of information bits for transmission between a first node and a second node in a wireless communications system, the method comprises generating a codeword vector by encoding the set of information bits with a low-density parity-check code, wherein the codeword vector is composed of systematic bits and parity bits. The method comprises performing circular buffer-based rate matching on the generated codeword vector to produce the coded bits for transmission, wherein the circular buffer-based rate matching comprises puncturing a first plurality of systematic bits.

Rate matching methods for LDPC codes

According to some embodiments, a wireless device is operating in communication with two or more serving cells wherein at least one serving cell of the two or more serving cells is configured for release 16 reporting of physical downlink control channel (PDCCH) monitoring capabilities. The wireless device performs a method comprising transmitting a first parameter representing a release 16 PDCCH monitoring capability of the wireless device to a network node and determining a maximum number of PDCCH candidates and a maximum number of non-overlapped control channel elements (CCEs) based on a maximum number of release 16 capable serving cells, which is determined based on the transmitted first parameter.

CA limit for different PDCCH monitoring capabilities

A User Equipment (UE) () configured for operation in a wireless communication network () ignores a received preemption indicator responsive to determining that the involved data transmission by the UE () will carry Uplink Control Information (UCI) from the UE (), at least when the UCI is of a certain type or priority. For example, the UE () ignores the preemption indicator if the UCI is of the certain type or priority, and otherwise follows the preemption indicator by skipping the uplink data transmission. Correspondingly, a radio network node () configured for operation in the wireless communication network () determines whether an uplink data transmission by a UE () on certain radio resources will include UCI, and the radio network node () transmits or does not transmit a preemption indicator preempting use by the UE () of the certain radio resources for the uplink data transmission, in dependence on the determination.

Methods and apparatuses for controlling preemption of uplink transmissions in a communication network

Systems and methods are disclosed herein for determining and indicating antenna ports in Downlink Control Information (DCI). In one embodiment, a method performed by a wireless communication device comprises receiving a configuration comprising a Demodulation Reference Signal (DMRS) configuration and an antenna port field configuration for an antenna port field in a Downlink Control Information (DCI) format. The method further comprises receiving a DCI of the DCI format and determining a size of an antenna port field and a DMRS port table for interpreting a value comprised in the antenna port field based on the DMRS and antenna port field configurations, the determined DMRS port table being a subset of a master DMRS port table. The method further comprises determining a DMRS port(s) used for a corresponding physical channel based on the size of the antenna port field, the DMRS port table, and/or the value of the antenna port field.

Systems and methods for determining and indicating antenna ports with configurable antenna port field in DCI

A method by a wireless device includes determining a value of a Sounding Reference Signal (SRS) request field size. The wireless device receives downlink control information (DCI) from a network node. The DCI is received according to a format. The wireless device selects a SRS resource set based on the format of the DCI and the value of the SRS request field size.

Configuration of downlink control information formats

A method for use in a transmitter includes sending a transmission comprising a transport block (TB) comprising a plurality of code blocks (CBs) arranged in one or more code block groups (CBGs). Each code block group includes one or more code blocks and each code block includes a plurality of coded bits. The transmission is sent to a receiver configured to use multi-bit hybrid automatic repeat request (HARQ) feedback per transport block. The method further includes receiving HARQ ACK or NACK feedback from the receiver one or more of the one or more code block groups of the transport block. The method further includes determining a number of code blocks or code block groups to send to the receiver in a retransmission based on at least the received HARQ ACK or NACK feedback.

HARQ handling for nodes with variable processing times

According to some embodiments, a method of operation of a wireless transmitter in a wireless communication network comprises: encoding a set of information carrying data bits u of length K with a linear outer code to generate a set of outer parity bits p along with the data bits u; interleaving the set of outer parity bits p and the data bits u using a predetermined interleaving mapping function that depends on the number of data bits K and is operable to distribute some bits of the set of parity bits p in front of some data bits u; and encoding the interleaved bits using a Polar encoder to generate a set of encoded bits x. Various interleaving mapping functions are disclosed.

CRC interleaving pattern for polar codes

The present disclosure described systems and methods for providing OTT services to a UE. An exemplary OTT-providing host computer includes a transceiver, a processor, and memory collective configured to provide the OTT service by initiating transmission of user data to the UE. To transmit the user data from the host computer to the wireless device, a network node sends a first control message for assigning a PDSCH, the first control message comprising a first MCS indication as described. The network node sends to the wireless device a second control message for assigning a PDSCH, the second control message comprising a second MCS indication as described. The network node transmits the user data thereafter.

Methods and systems for performance enhancement of downlink shared channels

A set of resources, e.g. time and frequency resources, used for configured grants for a group of user equipments (UEs) is signalled to a second group of UEs. The second group of UEs consider the signalled set of resources to be reserved, and, therefore, avoid transmitting anything on the set of resources even if they are scheduled to do so.

Methods of signaling reserved resources for ultra-reliable low latency communication (URLLC) traffic

Systems and methods for adapting a timer(s) for a satellite-based radio access network are disclosed. Embodiments of a method performed by a user equipment or a base station and corresponding embodiments of a user equipment or a base station are disclosed. In some embodiments, a method performed by a user equipment or a bases station comprises obtaining an amount of resources elements available and determining a transport block size based on the amount of resources elements available. In some embodiments, repetitions are used. In some embodiments, obtaining the available resource elements amount is based on at least one of: one or more explicit calculations and/or one or more signaled scaling factor(s). In some embodiments, the method further comprises determining (or selecting) a modulation and code rate (MCS) based on the amount of resources elements available.

Transport block size determination for repetition

A wireless device is configured to receive control signaling from a radio network node. The control signaling configures an uplink grant or downlink assignment to periodically recur. The control signaling also configures a number of redundant transmissions of a transport block that are transmittable within a bundle of the configured uplink grant or downlink assignment, where the number is greater than or equal to one. The control signaling may also configure different sets of transmission occasions within which the number of redundant transmissions are transmittable during, or starting during, a period of the configured uplink grant or downlink assignment.

Bundling for a configured grant or assignment in a wireless communication system

A method, system and apparatus are disclosed for priority indication. In one embodiment, a wireless device is configured to receive a priority indicator associated with a downlink control information, DCI, message, the DCI message being associated with one of an uplink-configured grant, UL-CG, configuration and a downlink-semipersistent assignment, DL-SPS, configuration; and determine a use of the priority indicator associated with the DCI message. In another embodiment, a network node is configured to determine a use of a priority indicator associated with a downlink control information, DCI, message; and send the priority indicator associated with the DCI message according to the determined use, the DCI message being associated with one of an uplink-configured grant, UL-CG, configuration and a downlink-semipersistent assignment, DL-SPS, configuration.

Methods for use of priority indication associated with CG/SPS transmission

Apparatuses and methods are disclosed for pre-emption priority level for Uplink Control Information (UCI) and/or Physical Uplink Shared Channel (PUSCH) conflict resolution. In one embodiment, a method implemented in a network node includes indicating to a wireless device (WD) a priority associated with at least one uplink (UL) channel; and receiving at least one UL signal based at least in part on the indicated priority. In another embodiment, a method implemented in a WD includes determining a priority associated with at least one of at least two uplink (UL) channels; and resolving a conflict between the at least two uplink channels based at least in part on the determined priority.
