Apparatuses and methods for priority transmission scheme

A controller of an end node, comprising:

• one or more memories including instructions;
• and
• one or more processors communicatively coupled with the one or more memories and configured to execute the instructions to:
• provide a first queue having a first plurality of transmission opportunities for a plurality of end nodes to transmit first information of a first priority;
• grant a first permission to at least a first subset of the plurality of end nodes to transmit at least a first portion of the first information of the first priority;
• and
• replace, after the transmitting the first information, a second queue having a second plurality of transmission opportunities for the plurality of end nodes to transmit second information of a second priority with a third queue having a third plurality of transmission opportunities for the plurality of end nodes to transmit third information of a third priority, the third priority being higher than the second priority.

A non-transitory computer readable medium having instructions stored therein that, when executed by one or more processors of a controller of an end node, cause the one or more processors to:

• provide a first queue having a first plurality of transmission opportunities for a plurality of end nodes to transmit first information of a first priority;
• grant a first permission to at least a first subset of the plurality of end nodes to transmit at least a first portion of the first information of the first priority;
• and
• replace, after the transmitting the first information, a second queue having a second plurality of transmission opportunities for the plurality of end nodes to transmit second information of a second priority with a third queue having a third plurality of transmission opportunities for the plurality of end nodes to transmit third information of a third priority, the third priority being higher than the second priority.
