Abstract
A method and apparatus are disclosed from the perspective of a UE (User Equipment). In one embodiment, the method includes the UE receiving and/or monitoring a first control region via a first link. The method further includes the UE transmitting a first request if the first link fails. The method also includes the UE receiving and/or monitoring a second control region for a response via a second link within a time window associated with the first request. In addition, the method includes the UE receiving and/or monitoring the first control region after the time window associated with the first request is over.
Claims16
A method of a UE (User Equipment), comprising:
- the UE receives and/or monitors a first control region via a first link, wherein the first control region is a search space or a CORESET (Control Resource Set) configured to monitor downlink control signaling which indicates one or more DL (Downlink) assignments and/or one or more UL (Uplink) grants;
- the UE transmits a first request if the first link fails;
- the UE receives and/or monitors a second control region for a response via a second link within a time window associated with the first request;
- when the UE does not receive the response successfully within the time window associated with the first request, the UE transmits a second request and receives and/or monitors the second control region, for a response via a second link within a time window associated with the second request, wherein there is a time gap between a last time unit of the time window associated with the first request and a starting time unit of the time window associated with the second request;
- and
- the UE receives and/or monitors downlink control signaling in the same time domain resources and/or in the same frequency domain resources of the first control region during the time gap after the time window associated with the first request is over.

A method of a network, comprising:
- the network transmits downlink control signaling to a UE (User Equipment) in a first control region via a first link, wherein the first control region is a search space or a CORESET (Control Resource Set) configured to transmit downlink control signaling which indicates one or more DL (Downlink) assignments and/or one or more UL (Uplink) grants;
- the network receives a first request from the UE;
- the network transmits a response to the UE in a second control region via a second link within a time window associated with the first request;
- and
- the network transmits at least downlink control signaling in the same frequency domain resources and/or the same time domain resources as that of the first control region and does not transmit the response in the second control region until reception of a second request or until starting time of a time window associated with a received second request, after the time window associated with the first request is over, wherein the network does not receive an acknowledgement successfully.

A method of UE (User Equipment) monitoring, comprising:
- monitoring at the UE a first control region via a first link, wherein the first control region is a search space or a CORESET (Control Resource Set) configured to monitor downlink control signaling which indicates one or more DL (Downlink) assignments and/or one or more UL (Uplink) grants;
- transmitting from the UE a first request if the first link fails;
- initiating a time window;
- monitoring at the UE a second control region for a network response via a second link within the time window associated with the first request;
- transmitting from the UE a second request if the network response is not received before the time window expires, with a time gap existing between the expiration of the time window associated with the first request and starting time of a time window associated with the second request or between the expiration of the time window associated with the first request and transmission time of the second request;
- continuing monitoring at the UE for downlink control signaling in the same time domain resources and/or in the same frequency domain resources of the first control region during the time gap;
- and
- monitoring at the UE the second control region for a second network response after the time gap.
