Abstract: Systems and methods related to conveying Time Sensitive Networking (TSN) synchronization information within a cellular communication system (e.g., a Fifth Generation System (5GS)) are disclosed. In one embodiment, a method performed by a User Equipment (UE) in a cellular communications system or a TSN Translator (TT) associated with the UE comprises receiving, from a TSN end station, a Precision Time Protocol (PTP) or generalized PTP (gPTP) announce message comprising information that identifies one or more clock domains for which the TSN end station desires to receive PTP or gPTP messages. The method further comprises sending, to a core network node in the cellular communications system, either: (a) the information that identifies the one or more clock domains extracted from the PTP or gPTP announce message or (b) the PTP or gPTP announce message. Using this information, UE specific PTP or gPTP message filtering may be applied.

Abstract: A method by a wireless device (110) includes receiving a first Downlink Semi-Persistent Scheduling (DL SPS) assignment and a second DL SPS assignment from a network node (160). At least one resource associated with the first DL SPS assignment and at least one resource associated with the second DL SPS assignment are at least partially overlapping. The wireless device compares priority information associated with each of the first DL SPS assignment and the second DL SPS assignment and selects a one of the first DL SPS assignment and the second DL SPS assignment that has a higher priority based on the priority information. The wireless device attempts to decode the Physical Downlink Shared Channel (PDSCH) according to the selected one of the first DL SPS assignment and the second DL SPS assignment that has the higher priority.

Abstract: A method performed by a wireless device includes receiving a first grant of resources from a network node. The first grant of resources is associated with first prioritization information.

The wireless device determines whether to pre-empt transmission of the constructed MAC PDU based on comparing the first prioritization information and second prioritization information and pre-empts the transmission of the constructed MAC PDU if the second prioritization information indicates a higher priority than indicated by the first prioritization information.
