Abstract
Apparatuses, methods, and systems are disclosed for determining linked bandwidth parts. One method includes determining that a plurality of bandwidth parts is activated. The method includes determining that a scheduling resource is configured on the plurality of bandwidth parts, semi-persistent scheduling is configured on the plurality of bandwidth parts, or a combination thereof. The method includes determining a bandwidth part of the plurality of bandwidth parts to use for an uplink transmission.
Claims4
A method comprising:
- determining, at a user equipment, that each bandwidth part of a plurality of bandwidth parts for uplink transmission is activated;
- determining, at the user equipment, that a scheduling resource is configured on each bandwidth part of the plurality of bandwidth parts, semi-persistent scheduling is configured on each bandwidth part of the plurality of bandwidth parts, or a combination thereof;
- and
- determining, at the user equipment, a bandwidth part of the plurality of bandwidth parts to be selected to use for a specific uplink transmission by:
- determining the bandwidth part of the plurality of bandwidth parts that is the earliest available in a time domain;
- and
- determining the bandwidth part of the plurality of bandwidth parts that has channel resources having a higher priority than channel resources of other bandwidth parts of the plurality of bandwidth parts.
An apparatus comprising a user equipment, the apparatus further comprising:
- a processor that:
- determines that each bandwidth part of a plurality of bandwidth parts for uplink transmission is activated;
- determines that a scheduling resource is configured on each bandwidth part of the plurality of bandwidth parts, semi-persistent scheduling is configured on each bandwidth part of the plurality of bandwidth parts, or a combination thereof;
- and
- determines a bandwidth part of the plurality of bandwidth parts to be selected to use for a specific uplink transmission by:
- determining the bandwidth part of the plurality of bandwidth parts that is the earliest available in a time domain;
- and
- determining the bandwidth part of the plurality of bandwidth parts that has channel resources having a higher priority than channel resources of other bandwidth parts of the plurality of bandwidth parts.
