  • Retransmission protocol feedback handling with multiple feedback times
    Patent number: 11750337
    Abstract: In a mobile network, the transmission of downlink data blocks to one or more terminal devices is accomplished on the basis of a retransmission protocol with a first feedback time defining a time interval between transmission of a first data block and transmission of a first feedback message being different from a second feedback time defining a time interval between transmission of a second data block and transmission of a second feedback message. The first feedback message indicates whether the first data block was successfully received, and the second feedback message indicates whether the second data block was successfully received. A base station of the mobile network controls the terminal device to send the second feedback message on other resources than used for transmission of the first feedback message.

  • Methods and apparatus for synchronizing critical data transmission
    Patent number: 11729732
    Abstract: The present disclosure provides techniques for reducing latency of periodic URLLC transmission and other critical data transmission with low latency requirements. To support periodic URLLC traffic, SPS with repetition is used. Before synchronization is achieved, the base station sends to the UE an SPS configuration for a periodic uplink data transmission. When the starting time of the data transmission is not known, the base station over-provisions SPS resources for the periodic data transmission. Based on the timing of the data transmissions, the base station adjusts the timing of the SPS configuration.
