US 2026/0213898 A1 · SCHEDULING MULTIPLE DATA MESSAGES WITH LIGHT ADAPTATION BETWEEN SUBBANDS OF AN ACTIVE BANDWIDTH PART USING A SINGLE DOWNLINK CONTROL INFORMATION MESSAGE

Abstract

Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communication are described. Various aspects generally relate to scheduling multiple data messages with light adaptation between subbands of an active bandwidth part (BWP) using a single downlink control information (DCI) message. Some aspects more specifically relate to one or more signaling- or configuration-based mechanisms according to which a user equipment (UE) and a network entity may use a single DCI message to schedule multiple data messages in systems in which an active BWP includes multiple subbands, each subband associated with different valid quantities of physical resource blocks (PRBs). In some aspects, the DCI message may include an explicit indication of which subband the UE is to use to communicate each data message of the multiple data messages. In some other aspects, the DCI message may implicitly indicate which subband the UE is to use to communicate each data message of the multiple data messages.

Dependent claims

An apparatus for wireless communication at a user equipment (UE), comprising:

a processing system that includes processor circuitry and memory circuitry that stores code, the processing system configured to cause the apparatus to:
receive first configuration information indicative of a set of parameters associated with an active bandwidth part of the UE and, as part of the first configuration information, second configuration information indicative of a plurality of subbands within the active bandwidth part, the plurality of subbands comprising different valid quantities of physical resource blocks;
receive a downlink control information message that comprises resource allocation information associated with a plurality of data messages and comprises subband information indicative of which subband of the plurality of subbands the UE is to use to communicate each data message of the plurality of data messages;
and
communicate the plurality of data messages using at least one subband of the plurality of subbands in accordance with the resource allocation information and the subband information.
