Abstract
A transmitting node (110) transmits a message (210) instructing a radio node (105) that data will be transmitted to the radio node (105) according to the same Downlink Control Information (DCI) each period (250). The message (210) includes a duration of the period (250). The transmitting node (110) further transmits the DCI to the radio node (105) for the periodic transmission (260). The radio node (105) receives the message (210) and the DCI from the transmitting node (110), and decodes each of a plurality of transmissions of the periodic transmission (260) according to the DCI.

A method of transmission scheduling implemented by a transmitting node, the method comprising the transmitting node:
- transmitting a message instructing a radio node that data will be transmitted to the radio node according to the same Downlink Control Information (DCI) each period, the message comprising a duration of the period;
- and
- transmitting the DCI to the radio node for the periodic transmission.
A transmitting node, comprising:
- processing circuitry;
- memory containing instructions executable by the processing circuitry whereby the transmitting node is operative to:
- transmit a message instructing a radio node that data will be transmitted to the radio node according to the same Downlink Control Information (DCI) each period, the message comprising a duration of the period;
- and
- transmit, to the radio node, the DCI for the periodic transmission.
A method of transmission scheduling implemented by a radio node, the method comprising the radio node:
- receiving a message, from a transmitting node, instructing the radio node that data will be transmitted from the transmitting node to the radio node according to the same Downlink Control Information (DCI) each period, the message comprising a duration of the period;
- receiving, from the transmitting node, the DCI for the periodic transmission;
- and
- decoding each of a plurality of transmissions of the periodic transmission according to the DCI.
A radio node, comprising:
- processing circuitry;
- memory containing instructions executable by the processing circuitry whereby the radio node is operative to:
- receive a message, from a transmitting node, instructing the radio node that data will be transmitted from the transmitting node to the radio node according to the same Downlink Control Information (DCI) each period, the message comprising a duration of the period;
- receive, from the transmitting node, the DCI for the periodic transmission;
- and
- decode each of a plurality of transmissions of the periodic transmission according to the DCI.
