Abstract

An apparatus of a user equipment (UE) comprises one or more baseband processors to process payload size comprising a number of feedback bits for a hybrid automatic repeat request-acknowledgement (HARQ-ACK) configuration received from a New Radio (NR) NodeB (gNB) for physical uplink shared channel (PUSCH) transmission without grant, and to determine a size of reserved resource elements (REs) and mapping pattern in accordance with the configured HARQ-ACK payload size, and to transmit uplink shared channel on PUSCH without grant which is rate-matched around the reserved REs. The UE alternatively comprises one or more baseband processors to process a downlink control information (DCI) grant received from a to schedule a PUSCH transmission, wherein the one or more baseband processors are configured for dynamic DCI grant overwriting to process a dynamic indication to interrupt the scheduled PUSCH transmission.

Claims

exact text as granted — not AI-modified
1 . (canceled) 
     
     
         2 . An apparatus of a user equipment (UE), comprising:
 one or more baseband processors to process downlink control information (DCI) received from a next generation NodeB (gNB) to schedule physical uplink shared channel (PUSCH) transmission without grant, wherein the DCI includes a downlink assignment index (DAI) that indicates a number of feedback bits for a hybrid automatic repeat request-acknowledgement (HARQ-ACK); and   a memory to store the DAI.   
     
     
         3 . The apparatus of  claim 2 , wherein the DAI for a first transmission comprises 1 bit for a semi-static HARQ-ACK codebook. 
     
     
         4 . The apparatus of  claim 2 , wherein the DAI for a first transmission comprises 2 bits for a dynamic HARQ-ACK codebook. 
     
     
         5 . The apparatus of  claim 2 , wherein the DAI for a second transmission comprises 2 bits for a dynamic HARQ-ACK codebook with two HARQ-ACK sub-codebooks. 
     
     
         6 . The apparatus of  claim 2 , wherein the DAI for a second transmission comprises 0 bits. 
     
     
         7 . An apparatus of a New Radio (NR) NodeB (gNB), comprising:
 one or more baseband processors to generate downlink control information (DCI) for a user equipment (UE) to schedule physical uplink shared channel (PUSCH) transmission without grant, wherein the DCI includes a downlink assignment index (DAI) that indicates a number of feedback bits for a hybrid automatic repeat request-acknowledgement (HARQ-ACK); and   a memory to store the DAI.   
     
     
         8 . The apparatus of  claim 7 , wherein the DAI for a first transmission comprises 1 bit for a semi-static HARQ-ACK codebook. 
     
     
         9 . The apparatus of  claim 7 , wherein the DAI for a first transmission comprises 2 bits for a dynamic HARQ-ACK codebook. 
     
     
         10 . The apparatus of  claim 7 , wherein the DAI for a second transmission comprises 2 bits for a dynamic HARQ-ACK codebook with two HARQ-ACK sub-codebooks. 
     
     
         11 . The apparatus of  claim 7 , wherein the DAI for a second transmission comprises 0 bits. 
     
     
         12 . One or more non-transitory machine readable media having instructions stored thereon that, when executed by an apparatus of a user equipment (UE), result in:
 processing downlink control information (DCI) received from a next generation NodeB (gNB) to schedule physical uplink shared channel (PUSCH) transmission without grant, wherein the DCI includes a downlink assignment index (DAI) that indicates a number of feedback bits for a hybrid automatic repeat request-acknowledgement (HARQ-ACK); and   configuring HARQ-ACK feedback according to the DAI.   
     
     
         13 . The one or more non-transitory machine readable media of  claim 12 , wherein the DAI for a first transmission comprises 1 bit for a semi-static HARQ-ACK codebook. 
     
     
         14 . The one or more non-transitory machine readable media of  claim 12 , wherein the DAI for a first transmission comprises 2 bits for a dynamic HARQ-ACK codebook. 
     
     
         15 . The one or more non-transitory machine readable media of  claim 12 , wherein the DAI for a second transmission comprises 2 bits for a dynamic HARQ-ACK codebook with two HARQ-ACK sub-codebooks. 
     
     
         16 . The one or more non-transitory machine readable media of  claim 12 , wherein the DAI for a second transmission comprises 0 bits. 
     
     
         17 . One or more non-transitory machine readable media having instructions stored thereon that, when executed by an apparatus of a New Radio (NR) NodeB (gNB), result in:
 generating downlink control information (DCI) for a user equipment (UE) to schedule physical uplink shared channel (PUSCH) transmission without grant, wherein the DCI includes a downlink assignment index (DAI) that indicates a number of feedback bits for a hybrid automatic repeat request-acknowledgement (HARQ-ACK); and   configuring HARQ-ACK feedback according to the DAI.   
     
     
         18 . The one or more non-transitory machine readable media of  claim 17 , wherein the DAI for a first transmission comprises 1 bit for a semi-static HARQ-ACK codebook. 
     
     
         19 . The one or more non-transitory machine readable media of  claim 17 , wherein the DAI for a first transmission comprises 2 bits for a dynamic HARQ-ACK codebook. 
     
     
         20 . The one or more non-transitory machine readable media of  claim 17 , wherein the DAI for a second transmission comprises 2 bits for a dynamic HARQ-ACK codebook with two HARQ-ACK sub-codebooks. 
     
     
         21 . The one or more non-transitory machine readable media of  claim 16 , wherein the DAI for a second transmission comprises 0 bits.
