  • Publication number: 20240163762
    Abstract: A wireless communication device (10, 10A) includes a first wireless communication unit (111), a second wireless communication unit (112), and a control unit (130). The first wireless communication unit (111) performs communication by connecting to a first communication network that permits connection in a predetermined area. The second wireless communication unit (112) performs communication by connecting to a second communication network different from the first communication network. The control unit (130) predicts communication quality of communication by the first wireless communication unit (111), and determines whether or not to perform communication by the second wireless communication unit (112) based on whether or not the predicted communication quality satisfies a desired communication quality.

  • Patent number: 11115960
    Abstract: A terminal apparatus includes a transmitter configured to transmit PUSCH data and a receiver configured to receive RRC information. The transmitter transmits the PUSCH data by using a resource associated with an HARQ process ID determined by symbol information for transmission of the PUSCH data, a period, and the number of HARQ processes. In a case that the receiver receives no response to the transmission of the PUSCH data with the HARQ process ID after the transmission of the PUSCH data is performed and before a timer included in the RRC information expires, the transmitter transmits new PUSCH data by using the resource associated with the HARQ process ID determined by the symbol information for the transmission of the PUSCH data, the period, and the number of HARQ processes.
