Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communication are described that support dynamic transient period configurations for shortened transmission time intervals (sTTIs).

For example, a user equipment (UE) may receive a resource grant from a base station for an uplink transmission, where the uplink transmission includes at least a first reference signal and a transmission time interval (TTI) that includes data and a second reference signal. The UE may identify a type of the reference signals and data, and may determine a priority based on the identified types of reference signals and data. The UE may then configure a transient period that overlaps with the first reference signal, the TTI, or both, based on the priority.

Abstract: In one embodiment, a particular device along a path in a deterministic network receives a first packet sent from a source towards a destination via the path. The particular device sends the first packet to a next hop device along the path, according to a deterministic schedule associated with the first packet. The particular device determines, after sending the first packet, an action to be performed on the first packet. The particular device then sends a second packet to the next hop device indicative of the determined action. The second packet causes another device along the path to perform the action on the first packet.

Abstract: Disclosed are a data transmission method, device, and system, which are used for resolving the problem of large overhead if an existing manner of sending a public message periodically is used in an ultra-dense network. The method comprises: user equipment sends an uplink request message, the uplink request message being used for requesting for obtaining public information of a first access node in an area in which the user equipment is located; and the user equipment receives the public information sent by the first access node. Because an access node in an area in which user equipment is located does not need to broadcast and send public information periodically, the access node can send, based on an uplink request of the user equipment, the public information, thereby improving the resource utilization and reducing the energy consumption.
