US 12,114,309 B2 · Handling user plane in wireless systems

Abstract

Systems, methods and instrumentalities may be provided for handling a user plane in a wireless communication system. The wireless communication system may be characterized by a flexible air interface. One aspect of the flexible air interface is that transmissions by a wireless transmit/receive unit (WTRU) in the system may have different quality of service (QoS) requirements, such as different latency requirements. The WTRU may adjust its behaviors based on the QoS requirements, e.g., by utilizing preconfigured resources, resource requests, self-scheduling, and/or the like, such that the transmissions may be performed in accordance with their respective QoS requirements.

Claims18

Dependent claims

A wireless transmit/receive unit (WTRU), comprising:

a processor configured to:
receive information indicating an uplink transmission grant for the WTRU and a priority associated with the uplink transmission grant;
determine that data associated with a first logical channel is available for transmission;
determine that the priority associated with the uplink transmission grant matches a priority associated with the first logical channel;
determine, based on the priority associated with the uplink transmission grant matching priority associated with the first logical channel, the data associated with the first logical channel is to be transmitted using the uplink transmission grant;
and
transmit the data associated with the first logical channel using the uplink transmission grant.
