Abstract
A method and apparatus are disclosed from the perspective of a network node. In one embodiment, the method includes configuring a UE (User Equipment) with a bandwidth part. The method further includes configuring the UE to use a bandwidth part timer for the bandwidth part. The method also includes configuring the UE with SPS resource on the bandwidth part. In addition, the method includes configuring the UE not to use the bandwidth part timer if length of the bandwidth part timer is shorter than SPS (Semi-Persistent Scheduling) interval for the SPS resource.
Claims17
A method of a network node, comprising:
- configuring a UE (User Equipment) with a bandwidth part;
- configuring the UE to use a bandwidth part timer for the bandwidth part;
- configuring the UE with SPS resource on the bandwidth part;
- and
- configuring the UE not to use the bandwidth part timer if length of the bandwidth part timer is shorter than SPS (Semi-Persistent Scheduling) interval for the SPS resource.
A method of a network node, comprising:
- configuring a UE (User Equipment) with a bandwidth part;
- configuring the UE to use a bandwidth part timer with a first value for the bandwidth part;
- configuring the UE with SPS resource on the bandwidth part;
- and
- configuring the UE to use the bandwidth part timer with a second value if the first value is shorter than SPS (Semi-Persistent Scheduling) interval for the SPS resource,
- wherein the second value is larger than or equal to the SPS interval of the SPS resource and wherein the SPS interval is an interval between two UL (Uplink) transmissions or DL (Downlink) receptions performed by the UE based on the SPS resource.
