Abstract

Uplink transmission in shorted transmission time intervals is provided herein. A method can comprise receiving, by a device comprising a processor, a first downlink control information related to scheduling a first uplink data transmission via a first transmission time interval. The method can also comprise receiving, by the device, a second downlink control information related to scheduling a second uplink data transmission via a second transmission time interval, wherein the second uplink data transmission overlaps at least a symbol with the first uplink data transmission. The method can also transmitting, by the device, the first uplink data transmission or the second uplink data transmission based on prioritization determined based on a first length of the first transmission time interval and a second length of the second transmission time interval.

First claim

What is claimed is:

1. A method, comprising:
determining, by a device comprising a processor, a first priority level of a first uplink data transmission based on first downlink control information related to scheduling the first uplink data transmission via a first transmission time interval;
determining, by the device, a second priority level of a second uplink data transmission based on second downlink control information related to scheduling the second uplink data transmission via a second transmission time interval, wherein the second uplink data transmission overlaps at least a symbol with the first uplink data transmission; and
transmitting, by the device, the first uplink data transmission or the second uplink data transmission based on a prioritization determined based on the first priority level and the second priority level, wherein the prioritization includes a first length of the first transmission time interval and a second length of the second transmission time interval.

2. The method of claim 1 , wherein the transmitting the first uplink data transmission or the second uplink data transmission comprises transmitting the second uplink data transmission to override a scheduling of the first uplink data transmission based on a determination that the second priority level is prioritized before the first priority level.

3. The method of claim 1 , wherein the transmitting the first uplink data transmission or the second uplink data transmission comprises transmitting the first uplink data transmission to override a scheduling of the second uplink data transmission based on a determination that the first priority level is prioritized before the second priority level.

4. The method of claim 1 , wherein the prioritization is based on the first length and the second length, and wherein the transmitting the first uplink data transmission or the second uplink data transmission comprises transmitting the second uplink data transmission to override a scheduling of the first uplink data transmission based on a determination that the second length is shorter than the first length.

5. The method of claim 4 , wherein the device does not transmit the first uplink data transmission that is overridden by the second uplink data transmission.

6. The method of claim 1 , wherein the prioritization is based on the first length and the second length, and wherein the transmitting the first uplink data transmission or the second uplink data transmission comprises transmitting the first uplink data transmission to override a scheduling of the second uplink data transmission based on a determination that the first length is shorter than the second length.

7. A method, comprising:
receiving, by a device comprising a processor, a first downlink control information related to scheduling a first uplink data transmission via a first transmission time interval;
receiving, by the device, a second downlink control information related to scheduling a second uplink data transmission via a second transmission time interval, wherein the second uplink data transmission overlaps at least a symbol with the first uplink data transmission; and
transmitting, by the device, the first uplink data transmission or the second uplink data transmission based on a prioritization determined based on a first length of the first transmission time interval and a second length of the second transmission time interval.

8. The method of claim 7 , wherein the prioritization is based on the first length and the second length, and wherein the transmitting the first uplink data transmission or the second uplink data transmission comprises transmitting the second uplink data transmission to override a scheduling of the first uplink data transmission based on a determination that the second length is shorter than the first length.

9. The method of claim 8 , wherein the device does not transmit the first uplink data transmission that is overridden by the second uplink data transmission.

10. The method of claim 7 , wherein the prioritization is based on the first length and the second length, and wherein the transmitting the first uplink data transmission or the second uplink data transmission comprises transmitting the first uplink data transmission to override a scheduling of the second uplink data transmission based on a determination that the first length is shorter than the second length.

11. A method, comprising:
receiving, by a mobile device comprising a processor, a first scheduling of a first uplink data transmission via a first transmission time interval based on a first downlink control information;
receiving, by the mobile device, a second scheduling of a second uplink data transmission via a second transmission time interval based on a second downlink control information, wherein the second uplink data transmission overlaps at least a symbol with the first uplink data transmission; and
transmitting, by the mobile device, the second uplink data transmission, wherein the second uplink data transmission overrides the first uplink data transmission.

12. The method of claim 11 , wherein the second downlink control information is received after a receipt of the first downlink control information.

13. The method of claim 11 , wherein the mobile device does not transmit the first uplink data transmission that is overridden by the second uplink data transmission.

14. The method of claim 11 , further comprising transmitting, by the mobile device, a third uplink data transmission in at least one non-overlapped symbol of the first uplink data transmission that is overridden by the second uplink data transmission.

15. The method of claim 14 , wherein the third uplink data transmission is punctured from the first uplink data transmission that is overridden by the second uplink data transmission.

16. The method of claim 14 , wherein a transmission parameter of the third uplink data transmission is derived from the first uplink data transmission that is overridden by the second uplink data transmission.

17. The method of claim 14 , wherein the first uplink data transmission comprises a first modulation and coding scheme and the third uplink data transmission comprises a second modulation and coding scheme, wherein the first modulation and coding scheme and the second modulation and coding scheme are a same modulation and coding scheme.

18. The method of claim 14 , wherein the first uplink data transmission comprises a first hybrid automatic repeat request process and the third uplink data transmission comprises a second hybrid automatic repeat request process, wherein the first hybrid automatic repeat request process and the second hybrid automatic repeat request process are a same hybrid automatic repeat request process.

19. The method of claim 14 , wherein the first uplink data transmission comprises a first transport block size and the third uplink data transmission comprises a second transport block size, wherein the first transport block size and the second transport block size are a same transport block size.
