Abstract
The disclosure relates to an apparatus configured to: transmit, to a base station, uplink control information indicating successful completion of a random access procedure and a capability or request to perform a physical uplink shared channel transmission with repetitions following the successful completion of the random access procedure; receive, from the base station, downlink control information scheduling the physical uplink shared channel transmission with repetitions; and perform (904) the physical uplink shared channel transmission with repetitions.
Claims20
An apparatus comprising:
- a processor;
- and
- a non-transitory computer-readable medium comprising computer-executable instructions that, when executed by the processor, cause the apparatus at least to:
- transmit, to a base station, uplink control information indicating successful completion of a random access procedure and a capability or request to perform a physical uplink shared channel transmission with repetitions following a successful completion of the random access procedure, wherein the uplink control information comprises:
- a hybrid automatic repeat request acknowledgement bit set to indicate a match between a contention resolution identifier received from the base station and a contention resolution identifier transmitted by the apparatus, wherein the hybrid automatic repeat request acknowledgement bit is set to value ‘zero’;
- and
- another bit set to indicate a capability or request to perform a physical uplink shared channel transmission with repetitions following the successful completion of the random access procedure;
- receive, from the base station, downlink control information scheduling the physical uplink shared channel transmission with repetitions comprises downlink control information format 0_0 with a cyclic redundancy check scrambled by:
- a cell radio network temporary identifier;
- a configured scheduling radio network temporary identifier;
- and
- a modulation and coding scheme cell radio network temporary identifier;
- and
- perform the physical uplink shared channel transmission with repetitions, wherein the physical uplink shared channel transmission with repetitions conveys the following:
- a radio resource control setup complete message;
- a capability information message;
- and
- an uplink data message;
- and
- wherein the uplink control information is transmitted using a physical uplink control channel format 1 with repetitions and comprises:
- a hybrid automatic repeat request acknowledgement bit set to indicate a match between a contention resolution identifier received from the base station and a contention resolution identifier transmitted by the apparatus and modulated into a complex-valued symbol d(0) conveyed in a physical uplink control channel transmission with repetitions;
- and
- wherein a capability or request to perform a physical uplink shared channel transmission with repetitions following the successful completion of the random access procedure is indicated using a specific pattern for the complex-valued symbol d(0) throughout the physical uplink control channel transmission with repetitions.
A system comprising:
- an apparatus;
- a processor;
- and
- a non-transitory computer-readable medium comprising computer-executable instructions that, when executed by the processor, cause the apparatus at least to:
- transmit, to a base station, uplink control information indicating successful completion of a random access procedure and a capability or request to perform a physical uplink shared channel transmission with repetitions following the successful completion of the random access procedure, wherein the uplink control information comprises:
- a hybrid automatic repeat request acknowledgement bit set to indicate a match between a contention resolution identifier received from the base station and a contention resolution identifier transmitted by the apparatus, wherein the hybrid automatic repeat request acknowledgement bit is set to value ‘zero’;
- and
- another bit set to indicate a capability or request to perform a physical uplink shared channel transmission with repetitions following a successful completion of the random access procedure;
- receive, from the base station, downlink control information scheduling the physical uplink shared channel transmission with repetitions comprises downlink control information format 0_0 with a cyclic redundancy check scrambled by:
- a cell radio network temporary identifier;
- a configured scheduling radio network temporary identifier;
- and
- a modulation and coding scheme cell radio network temporary identifier;
- and
- perform the physical uplink shared channel transmission with repetitions, wherein the physical uplink shared channel transmission with repetitions conveys the following:
- a radio resource control setup complete message;
- a capability information message;
- and
- an uplink data message;
- and
- wherein the uplink control information is transmitted using a physical uplink control channel format 1 with repetitions and comprises:
- a hybrid automatic repeat request acknowledgement bit set to indicate a match between a contention resolution identifier received from the base station and a contention resolution identifier transmitted by the apparatus and modulated into a complex-valued symbol d(0) conveyed in a physical uplink control channel transmission with repetitions;
- and
- wherein a capability or request to perform a physical uplink shared channel transmission with repetitions following the successful completion of the random access procedure is indicated using a specific pattern for the complex-valued symbol d(0) throughout the physical uplink control channel transmission with repetitions.
A method comprising:
- transmitting, by a user equipment to a base station, uplink control information indicating successful completion of a random access procedure and a capability or request to perform a physical uplink shared channel transmission with repetitions following the successful completion of the random access procedure, wherein the uplink control information comprises:
- a hybrid automatic repeat request acknowledgement bit set to indicate a match between a contention resolution identifier received from the base station and a contention resolution identifier transmitted by the use equipment, wherein the hybrid automatic repeat request acknowledgement bit is set to value ‘zero’;
- and
- another bit set to indicate a capability or request to perform a physical uplink shared channel transmission with repetitions following the successful completion of the random access procedure;
- receiving, by the user equipment from the base station, downlink control information scheduling the physical uplink shared channel transmission with repetitions comprises downlink control information format 0_0 with a cyclic redundancy check scrambled by:
- a cell radio network temporary identifier;
- a configured scheduling radio network temporary identifier;
- and
- a modulation and coding scheme cell radio network temporary identifier;
- and
- performing, by the user equipment, the physical uplink shared channel transmission with repetitions, wherein the physical uplink shared channel transmission with repetitions conveys the following:
- a radio resource control setup complete message;
- a capability information message;
- and
- an uplink data message;
- and
- wherein the uplink control information is transmitted using a physical uplink control channel format 1 with repetitions and comprises:
- a hybrid automatic repeat request acknowledgement bit set to indicate a match between a contention resolution identifier received from the base station and a contention resolution identifier transmitted by the user equipment and modulated into a complex-valued symbol d(0) conveyed in a physical uplink control channel transmission with repetitions;
- and
- wherein a capability or request to perform a physical uplink shared channel transmission with repetitions following the successful completion of the random access procedure is indicated using a specific pattern for the complex-valued symbol d(0) throughout the physical uplink control channel transmission with repetitions.
