Abstract

A wireless device receives from a base station, message(s) comprising: first configuration parameters of cell(s) and second configuration parameters of logical channel(s). Uplink grant(s) indicating radio resources are received on the cell(s) where the uplink grant(s) are received in different transmission time intervals; and the radio resources comprise resource block(s). First uplink grant(s) are selected in response to the first uplink grant(s) being received during coinciding time durations that the wireless device is configured to monitor a control channel on the cell(s). Data from logical channel(s) are multiplexed into transport blocks by processing together the first uplink grant(s). Transport block(s) are transmitted via resource blocks corresponding to the first uplink grant(s).

First claim

What is claimed is:

1. A method comprising:
receiving, by a wireless device from a base station, at least one message comprising:
first configuration parameters of a plurality of cells; and
second configuration parameters of a plurality of logical channels;

receiving a plurality of uplink grants indicating radio resources on the plurality of cells, wherein:
the plurality of uplink grants are received in different transmission time intervals; and
the radio resources comprise one or more resource blocks;

selecting a first plurality of uplink grants of the plurality of uplink grants in response to the first plurality of uplink grants being received during one or more coinciding time durations that the wireless device is configured to monitor a control channel on the plurality of cells;
multiplexing data from one or more logical channels in the plurality of logical channels into one or more transport blocks by processing together the first plurality of uplink grants of the plurality of uplink grants; and
transmitting, via the one or more resource blocks, the one or more transport blocks corresponding to the first plurality of uplink grants.

2. The method of claim 1 , wherein an uplink grant, in the plurality of uplink grants, comprises a field indicating a transmission time for uplink transmission.

3. The method of claim 1 , wherein the processing together the first plurality of uplink grants comprises performing a logical channel prioritization procedure based on a sum of capacities of a second plurality of uplink grants in the first plurality of uplink grants.

4. The method of claim 1 , wherein the second configuration parameters indicate one or more priorities of the one or more logical channels.

5. The method of claim 4 , wherein the multiplexing data from the one or more logical channels comprises performing a logical channel prioritization procedure based on the one or more priorities.

6. The method of claim 1 , wherein the second configuration parameters indicate that each of the one or more logical channels are mapped to one or more corresponding transmission durations.

7. The method of claim 6 , wherein the multiplexing the data from the one or more logical channels is based on the one or more corresponding transmission durations.

8. The method of claim 1 , wherein the second configuration parameters indicate a prioritized bit rate corresponding to a logical channel in the one or more logical channels.

9. The method of claim 1 , wherein the first plurality of uplink grants comprise a plurality of transmission parameters for the one or more transport blocks.

10. The method of claim 1 , wherein a third plurality of uplink grants in the first plurality of uplink grants indicate resources with one or more same transmission durations.

11. A wireless device comprising:
one or more processors; and
memory storing instructions that, when executed by the one or more processors, cause the wireless device to:
receive, from a base station, at least one message comprising:
first configuration parameters of a plurality of cells; and
second configuration parameters of a plurality of logical channels;

receive a plurality of uplink grants indicating radio resources on the plurality of cells, wherein:
the plurality of uplink grants are received in different transmission time intervals; and
the radio resources comprise one or more resource blocks;

select a first plurality of uplink grants of the plurality of uplink grants in response to the first plurality of uplink grants being received during one or more coinciding time durations that the wireless device is configured to monitor a control channel on the plurality of cells;
multiplex data from one or more logical channels in the plurality of logical channels into one or more transport blocks by processing together the first plurality of uplink grants of the plurality of uplink grants; and
transmit, via the one or more resource blocks, the one or more transport blocks corresponding to the first plurality of uplink grants.

12. The wireless device of claim 11 , wherein an uplink grant, in the plurality of uplink grants, comprises a field indicating a transmission time for uplink transmission.

13. The wireless device of claim 11 , wherein the processing together the first plurality of uplink grants comprises performing a logical channel prioritization procedure based on a sum of capacities of a second plurality of uplink grants in the first plurality of uplink grants.

14. The wireless device of claim 11 , wherein the second configuration parameters indicate one or more priorities of the one or more logical channels.

15. The wireless device of claim 14 , the multiplexing data from the one or more logical channels comprises performing a logical channel prioritization procedure based on the one or more priorities.

16. The wireless device of claim 11 , wherein the processing together the first plurality of uplink grants comprises performing a logical channel prioritization procedure based on the one or more priorities.

17. The wireless device of claim 16 , wherein the multiplexing the data from the one or more logical channels is based on the one or more coinciding transmission durations.

18. The wireless device of claim 11 , wherein the second configuration parameters indicate a prioritized bit rate corresponding to a logical channel in the one or more logical channels.

19. The wireless device of claim 11 , wherein the first plurality of uplink grants comprise a plurality of transmission parameters for the one or more transport blocks.

20. The wireless device of claim 11 , wherein a third plurality of uplink grants in the first plurality of uplink grants indicate resources with one or more same transmission durations.
