Abstract
Various solutions for transport block size (TBS) determination with respect to user equipment and network apparatus in mobile communications are described. An apparatus may determine an intermediate number of information bits. The apparatus may quantize the intermediate number of information bits. The apparatus may determine a TBS according to the quantized intermediate number of information bits. The apparatus may transmit the information bits according to the TBS.
Claims16
A method, comprising:
- determining, by a processor of an apparatus, an intermediate number of information bits;
- quantizing, by the processor, the intermediate number of information bits;
- determining, by the processor, a transport block size (TBS) according to the quantized intermediate number of information bits;
- transmitting, by the processor, the information bits according to the TBS;
- and
- determining, by the processor, a step size by a power of 2,
- wherein the intermediate number is proportional to a modulation order and a coding rate,
- wherein the information bits comprise data bits, control bits, or a combination thereof,
- wherein the quantizing comprises quantizing the intermediate number of information bits by the step size,
- wherein the step size is configurable and comprises a minimum value, and
- wherein an exponent of 2 is determined according to a logarithm function of the intermediate number of information bits.
