Abstract
Methods, systems, and a non-transitory computer-readable medium for optimizing uplink configured grants in a network. The method begins with establishing, by at least one user device, a network connection to a primary cell in a carrier aggregation network. The primary cell has a first multiplexing scheme with a first latency. Next, the method continues with configuring the uplink configured grant on a secondary cell in the carrier aggregation network. The secondary cell has a second multiplexing scheme with a second latency, the second latency lower than the first latency. The method then moves at least one traffic stream from the primary cell to the secondary cell, based on the second latency.

A method for optimizing uplink configured grants in a network, the method comprising:
- establishing, by at least one user device, a network connection to a primary cell in a carrier aggregation network, the primary cell having a first multiplexing scheme with a first latency;
- configuring the uplink configured grant on a secondary cell in the carrier aggregation network, the secondary cell having a second multiplexing scheme with a second latency, wherein the second latency is lower than the first latency;
- and
- moving at least one traffic stream from the primary cell to the secondary cell based on the second latency being lower than the first latency, wherein after moving the at least one traffic stream, the primary cell carries only uplink signaling traffic and the secondary cell carries uplink data traffic via the uplink configured grant, and wherein no data traffic is transmitted on the primary cell.
A method for optimizing uplink configured grants in a network, the method comprising:
- establishing, by a user device, a network connection to a primary cell in a carrier aggregation network, the primary cell having a first multiplexing scheme with a first latency;
- configuring, at the user device, the uplink configured grant on a secondary cell in the carrier aggregation network, the secondary cell having a second multiplexing scheme with a second latency, wherein the second latency is lower than the first latency;
- and
- receiving, at the user device, an instruction to move at least one traffic stream from the primary cell to the secondary cell based on the second latency being lower than the first latency, wherein after moving the at least one traffic stream in response to the instruction, the primary cell carries only uplink signaling traffic and the secondary cell carries uplink data traffic via the uplink configured grant, and wherein no data traffic is transmitted on the primary cell.
A non-transitory computer storage media storing computer-usable instructions that, when used by one or more processors, cause the processor to:
- establish a network connection to a primary cell in a carrier aggregation network, the primary cell having a first multiplexing scheme with a first latency;
- configure the uplink configured grant on a secondary cell in the carrier aggregation network, the secondary cell having a second multiplexing scheme with a second latency, wherein the second latency is lower than the first latency;
- and
- move at least one traffic stream from the primary cell to the secondary cell based on the second latency being lower than the first latency, wherein after moving the at least one traffic stream, the primary cell carries only uplink signaling traffic and the secondary cell carries uplink data traffic via the uplink configured grant, and wherein no data traffic is transmitted on the primary cell.
