Abstract
A sequence of connected messages is transmitted using Semi-Persistent Scheduling (SPS) of a predefined period. A random value for a 1-shot duration timer is set, the random value being chosen as being between a minimum and a maximum multiple of the predefined period. Responsive to expiration of the 1-shot duration timer, 1-shot resources are allocated for a 1-shot transmission, independent of SPS-allocated resources of the SPS, and a next packet of the sequence of connected messages is transmitted as a 1-shot message using the 1-shot resources instead of using the SPS-allocated resources of the SPS.
