Abstract
A user equipment may receive a configuration that configures the user equipment with a resource that is to repeat in time according to an interval. The user equipment may further receive control signalling indicating a parameter N. This parameter N indicates a number of repetitions of the resource that are to occur before the configuration is to be deactivated. The user equipment may also transmit or receive data on one or more repetitions of the resource according to the configuration. The user equipment may then deactivate the configuration upon occurrence of the number of repetitions of the resource indicated by the parameter N.
Claims17
A method performed by a user equipment, comprising:
- receiving a configuration that configures the user equipment with a resource that is to repeat in time according to an interval;
- receiving control signaling indicating a parameter N, wherein the parameter N indicates a number of repetitions of the resource that are to occur before the configuration is to be deactivated, wherein the control signaling is included in downlink control information;
- transmitting or receiving data on one or more repetitions of the resource according to the configuration;
- and
- deactivating the configuration upon occurrence of the number of repetitions of the resource indicated by the parameter N,
- wherein one or more bits in the downlink control information indicate whether the downlink control information includes the control signaling.
A method performed by a network node, comprising:
- transmitting, to a user equipment, a configuration that configures the user equipment with a resource that is to repeat in time according to an interval;
- transmitting, to the user equipment, control signaling indicating a parameter N,
- wherein the parameter N indicates a number of repetitions of the resource that are to occur before the configuration is to be deactivated,
- wherein the control signaling is included in downlink control information;
- transmitting or receiving data on one or more repetitions of the resource according to the configuration;
- and
- deactivating the configuration upon occurrence of the number of repetitions of the resource indicated by the parameter N,
- wherein one or more bits in the downlink control information indicate whether the downlink control information includes the control signaling.
A user equipment, comprising:
- communication circuitry;
- and
- processing circuitry configured to:
- receive a configuration that configures the user equipment with a resource that is to repeat in time according to an interval;
- receive control signaling indicating a parameter N, wherein the parameter N indicates a number of repetitions of the resource that are to occur before the configuration is to be deactivated, wherein the control signaling is included in downlink control information;
- transmit or receive data on one or more repetitions of the resource according to the configuration;
- and
- deactivate the configuration upon occurrence of the number of repetitions of the resource indicated by the parameter N,
- wherein one or more bits in the downlink control information indicate whether the downlink control information includes the control signaling.
