Abstract
A wireless device receives a radio resource control message comprising uplink periodic resource allocation configuration parameters. The uplink periodic resource allocation configuration parameters indicate: a hybrid automatic repeat request (HARQ) process identifier offset; and a number of uplink semi-persistent HARQ processes. Aa HARQ process identifier for a current transmission time interval is determined as a sum of the HARQ process identifier offset and a value determined based on: the current transmission time interval; and the number of uplink semi-persistent HARQ processes. A transport block associated with a HARQ process identified by the HARQ process identifier is transmitted.
Claims20
A method comprising:
- receiving, by a wireless device, a radio resource control message comprising uplink periodic resource allocation configuration parameters indicating:
- a hybrid automatic repeat request (HARQ) process identifier offset;
- and
- a number of uplink periodic resource allocation HARQ processes;
- determining a HARQ process identifier for a current transmission time interval as a sum of the HARQ process identifier offset and a value determined based on:
- the current transmission time interval;
- and
- the number of uplink periodic resource allocation HARQ processes;
- and
- transmitting a transport block associated with a HARQ process identified by the HARQ process identifier.
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 a radio resource control message comprising uplink periodic resource allocation configuration parameters indicating:
- a hybrid automatic repeat request (HARQ) process identifier offset;
- and
- a number of uplink periodic resource allocation HARQ processes;
- determine a HARQ process identifier for a current transmission time interval as a sum of the HARQ process identifier offset and a value determined based on:
- the current transmission time interval;
- and
- the number of uplink periodic resource allocation HARQ processes;
- and
- transmitting a transport block associated with a HARQ process identified by the HARQ process identifier.
