Abstract
A method of wireless communication performed by a first user equipment (UE) includes receiving second data from a remote UE and receiving an uplink transmission grant from a base station. The method also includes generating a payload comprising the second data from the second UE or first data from the first UE. The method additionally transmits the payload to the base station via an uplink resource identified in the uplink transmission grant.
Claims30
A method of wireless communication performed by a first user equipment (UE), comprising:
- receiving second data from a second UE;
- receiving, from a base station, an uplink transmission grant;
- generating a payload comprising the second data from the second UE or first data from the first UE;
- and
- transmitting the payload to the base station via an uplink resource identified in the uplink transmission grant.
An apparatus for wireless communications performed by a first user equipment (UE), comprising:
- a processor,
- memory coupled with the processor;
- and
- instructions stored in the memory and operable, when executed by the processor, to cause the apparatus:
- to receive second data from a second UE;
- to receive, from a base station, an uplink transmission grant;
- to generate a payload comprising the second data from the second UE or first data from the first UE;
- and
- to transmit the payload to the base station via an uplink resource identified in the uplink transmission grant.
A method for wireless communication performed by a base station, comprising:
- receiving a message from a first user equipment (UE) via uplink resources dynamically granted or configured for the first UE;
- decoding uplink control information (UCI) included in the message;
- and
- determining whether a payload of the message comprises first data generated by the first UE or second data generated by a second UE, based on the decoded UCI.
An apparatus for wireless communications performed by a base station, comprising:
- a processor,
