  • Publication number: 20220224406
    Abstract: In an aspect, a satellite-based non-terrestrial network configures multiple preconfigured uplink resources (PURs) for a user equipment (UE). The PURs may be configured one PUR per beam, one PUR per cell, or one PUR for multiple cells. A serving cell of the UE and one or more cells adjacent to the serving cell may each have an associated PUR. The UE selects one of the multiple PURs and sends a transmission using the selected PUR without the UE have a connection to the network. The network sends an ACK in response to the transmission. Either the UE or the network can specify that the UE is to transmit using a first PUR and receive the ACK on a second PUR. The UE can specify when and which PUR to use in the transmission and the network can specify when and which PUR to use in the ACK.

  • Publication number: 20220217712
    Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. Generally, a user equipment (UE) may communicate with a network device in an idle or disconnected state using preconfigured uplink resources (PURs). The UE may transmit uplink data, and may begin to monitor for a PUR response message corresponding to the uplink data after a configurable time offset. The Base station may indicate the configurable time offset in an RRC release message, another message, or the UE may select the configurable time offset from a set of configurable time offsets based on one or more system parameter values. Additionally, the UE may not monitor for PUR response messages after every PUR occasion during which it transmits uplink data.
