Abstract
The present disclosure relates to a transceiver device, comprising circuitry, which in operation, determined that a transmission of small data is to be performed by the transceiver device to a scheduling device. The transceiver device is in an inactive state out of a connected state, an idle state and the inactive state. The circuitry, in operation, obtains a characteristic relating to the small data. The transceiver device further comprises a transceiver, which in operation, performs the transmission of the small data and a characteristic indicator indicating the characteristic relating to the small data to the scheduling device.
Claims15
A transceiver device, comprising:
- circuitry, which in operation,
- determines that a transmission of small data is to be performed by the transceiver device to a scheduling device, wherein the transceiver device is in an inactive state out of a connected state, an idle state and the inactive state;
- obtains a characteristic relating to the small data;
- and
- a transceiver, which in operation, performs the transmission of the small data and a characteristic indicator indicating the characteristic relating to the small data to the scheduling device.
A method performed by a transceiver device, comprising:
- determining that a transmission of small data is to be performed by the transceiver device to a scheduling device, wherein the transceiver device is in an inactive state out of a connected state, an idle state and the inactive state;
- obtaining a characteristic relating to the small data;
- and
- performing the transmission of the small data and a characteristic indicator indicating the characteristic relating to the small data.
A scheduling device, comprising
- a transceiver, which in operation, receives a transmission of small data and a characteristic indicator indicating a characteristic relating to the small data from a transceiver device, wherein the transceiver device is in an inactive state out of a connected state, an idle state and the inactive state;
- and
- circuitry, which in operation, determines resources to be used by the transceiver device for subsequent transmissions of the small data, based on the characteristic relating to the small data, wherein
- the transceiver, in operation, transmits a resource indicator indicating the resources to be used by the transceiver device for subsequent transmissions of the small data.
