Abstract

A user equipment (UE) device including an antenna, a memory, an RF circuitry commutatively coupled to the antenna, and a processor configured to perform operations is described. In an exemplary embodiment, the operations include receiving the one or more pre-configured grant (pre-CG) configurations for an RRC_INACTIVE state from a network node. The one or more pre-CG configurations are for an initial data transmission when the UE is in the RRC_INACTIVE state. The operations also include performing, while the UE is in the RRC_INACTIVE state, the initial data transmission using a pre-CG resource based on the received one or more pre-CG configurations. Each of the one or more pre-CG configurations includes a configuration of the pre-CG resource and one or more conditions to use the pre-CG resource. The one or more conditions to use the pre-CG resource include one or more of an access type, a transmission priority, a mapped Logical Channel (LCH)/Dedicated Radio Bearer (DRB)/Quality of Service (QoS) flow, and a valid timing advance (TA).
