Abstract
Methods, systems, and storage media are described for multi-transmission time interval (TTI) physical uplink shared channel (PUSCH) transmissions. In particular, some embodiments relate to downlink control information (DCI) enhancements to support dynamic switching between single-TTI scheduling and multi-TTI scheduling. Other embodiments may be described and/or claimed.
Claims16
An apparatus comprising:
- memory to store information regarding one or more transport blocks (TBs) of a physical uplink shared channel (PUSCH);
- and
- processor circuitry, coupled with the memory, to:
- retrieve the information regarding the one or more TBs from the memory;
- determine a respective one or more new data indicators (NDIs) for the respective one or more TBs based on the information regarding the one or more TBs;
- and
- encode a downlink control information (DCI) message for transmission to a user equipment (UE) to schedule transmission of one or more TBs in a plurality of transmission time intervals (TTIs), wherein the DCI includes:
- the one or more NDIs, an indication of a number of the plurality of TTIs, and a respective indication of a redundancy version (RV) associated with each respective TB from the one or more TBs, and wherein the respective indication of the RV is two bits if the number of one or more TBs is one and is one bit if the number of one or more TBs is two or more.
One or more non-transitory computer-readable media storing instructions that, when executed by one or more processors, are to cause a next-generation NodeB (gNB) to:
- determine one or more new data indicators (NDIs) associated with one or more transport blocks (TBs);
- and
- encode a downlink control information (DCI) message for transmission to a user equipment (UE) that includes an indication of the one or more NDIs and an indication of a number of a plurality of scheduled transmission time intervals (TTIs) for a physical uplink shared channel (PUSCH), wherein the DCI further includes a respective indication of a redundancy version (RV) associated with each respective TB from the one or more TBs, and wherein the indication of the RV is two bits if the number of one or more TBs is one and is one bit if the number of one or more TBs is two or more.
One or more non-transitory computer-readable media storing instructions that, when executed by one or more processors, cause a user equipment (UE) to:
- receive a downlink control information (DCI) message that includes an indication of one or more new data indicators (NDIs) associated with a respective one or more transport block (TBs) for transmission of a physical uplink shared channel (PUSCH) in a respective number of a plurality of scheduled transmission time intervals (TTIs) for the PUSCH, wherein the DCI further includes a respective indication of a redundancy version (RV) associated with each respective TB from the one or more TBs, and wherein the respective indication of the RV is two bits if the number of one or more TBs is one and is one bit if the number of one or more TBs is two or more;
- and
- encode the PUSCH for transmission based on the DCI.
