Definitions
- TECHNICAL FIELD This embodiments relate generally to wireless communication systems and, more specifically, to employing a pre-scheduling scheme for contention based channels to be used for necessary transmission repetitions.
- SPS semi- persistent scheduling
- the base station or eNB
- SPS resources are UE specific and, if there is available data during the pre-scheduled interval, they may be reserved to the UE for a longer period of time for transmission/reception.
- the scheme reduces signaling overhead and helps to avoid the limitation of the control channel capacity, enabling a higher number of users both in downlink and uplink.
- NACK negative acknowledgement
- the current embodiments combine transmissions on pre-configured dedicated resources with automatic retransmissions on a set of shared contention-based resources.
- This embodiments include autonomous methods for deciding at which radio resources to transmit repetitions.
- the embodiments also include the corresponding UE- and BS-behaviors, as well as the corresponding air interface signaling between those entities.
- FIG. 1 is a block diagram of one possible and non-limiting exemplary system in which the exemplary embodiments may be practiced;
- FIG. 2 is an illustration of an embodiment of the proposed embodiments for the uplink
- FIG. 3 is a logic flow diagram for semi-persistent scheduling of contention based channel for transmission repetitions, and illustrates the operation of an exemplary method, a result of execution of computer program instructions embodied on a computer readable memory, functions performed by logic implemented in hardware, and/or interconnected means for performing functions in accordance with exemplary embodiments;
- FIG. 4 illustrates an embodiment the embodiments with repetitions and contention
- FIG. 5A and FIG. 5B illustrate SPS transmission without the concept of the current embodiments and SPS transmission with the contention based (CB) for repetitions concept of the current embodiments, respectively.
- CB contention based
- This embodiments relate to a fifth generation (5G) concept design, focusing on a new scheme with improved resource utilization and latency reduction, to be applied for Machine Type Communication (MTC).
- the 5G radio access technology is expected to enable a wide range of MTC services, including the support of ultra-reliable and low latency communication (URLLC) to be used in many novel applications.
- the 3GPP group in the technical report TR 38.913, defines stringent targets for reliability, for example 1-10 "5 within 1ms, and average user plane latency of 0.5ms. Meeting such requirements in an efficient way demands new solutions to come in the future mobile wireless technologies.
- exemplary embodiments of the current embodiments look to use a new concept that employs a pre- scheduling scheme for CB channels to be used in case of necessary transmission repetitions, in a low latency and resource efficient way.
- Embodiments of the present embodiments may provide enhanced latency by pre-scheduling resources to be used on necessity of further transmission repetitions for a reliable communication.
- the suggested scheme has improved radio resource utilization, since it proposes occasional use of shared pre-scheduled resources by a group of users.
- the retransmissions procedure specified by 3GPP for NB-IoT [3GPP TR 45.820] has the amount of time- frequency resources, for instance, the number of repetitions and the number of tones, set individually per UE depending on the coverage condition.
- the UEs are dynamically scheduled with up to 2048 repetitions onto a 1ms TTI. This technique can lead to high latency and resource consumption when the number of necessary repetitions is overestimated.
- the word "exemplary” as used herein means “serving as an example, instance, or illustration.” Any embodiment described herein as “exemplary” is not necessarily to be construed as preferred or advantageous over other embodiments. All of the embodiments described in this Detailed Description are exemplary embodiments provided to enable persons skilled in the art to make or use the embodiments and not to limit the scope of the embodiments which is defined by the claims. Therefore, the exemplary embodiments herein describe techniques for semi-persistent scheduling of contention based channel for transmission repetitions.
- the base station (BS) configures the UE to use a pre-scheduled (SPS) dedicated time-frequency resource pattern with a certain periodicity.
- SPS pre-scheduled
- the BS also configures the UE with CB resources (shared by a group of UEs, in order to optimize resources utilization) located among its periodic dedicated resources. The later should be used by the UE only if it needs to perform further retransmissions.
- the BS should reconcile the amount of dedicated and CB resources in order to avoid waste and, at the same time, reduce the probability of collision. This reconciliation can be done by proper allocation of necessary dedicated resources and by grouping the number of users per CB channel according to the target success probability and expected error rate.
- the BS can reconfigure the UEs in order to increase or reduce the number of users sharing a CB resource depending on the conditions and target reliability.
- the BS can configure the decision rules to use the dedicated and the CB channels for continuing retransmissions or for a drop in the information. This can be defined according to the QoS constraints or to a maximum number of allowed repetitions per UE.
- the BS may or may not assign orthogonal reference signals to the UEs sharing the same CB channel so as to be able to differentiate them by their transmitted signal.
- the UE uses its dedicated SPS resources to transmit repetitions of the information (for example, in symbol or TTI level) in order to increase the probability of success.
- the UE does not receive an ACK from the BS, then it continues transmitting the repetitions in the pre-scheduled CB resources. Note, however, that there is the possibility that there may be no repetitions on the dedicated resources, but merely a single transmission per piece of data, which may occur if the reliability on the dedicated resources is adequately high.
- the dedicated SPS resources are used by the BS to transmit the information and may be used by the BS to transmit repetitions of the information (for example, in symbol or TTI level) in order to increase the probability of success.
- the BS does not receive an ACK from the UE, then it continues transmitting the repetitions in the pre-scheduled CB resources. For example, if the BS receives a NACK from the UE, then it continues transmitting the repetitions in the pre-scheduled CB resources.
- BS does not receive an ACK from more than one UE, then it has to choose to which UE it will continue transmitting to on the CB channel (randomly or based on QoS requirements).
- a UE sending a NACK, or a UE not sending an ACK, for data received from the BS in its dedicated SPS resources should monitor its allocated resources on the CB channel and detect whether it is the intended recipient for any data received on these allocated resources on the CB channel.
- a UE which sent an ACK for data received on the dedicated resources may skip the monitoring of its allocated resources on the CB channel.
- Transmitting repetitions or retransmissions could also be implemented in such a manner as to transmit one single repetition or many repetitions of the same information, or different redundant versions of the same information (or portions of it).
- SPS semi-persistent scheduling
- it could also be implemented as a persistent scheduling (e.g., pre-scheduling of a sequence of resource chunks valid until the UE is active or receives another allocation) or as a single pre-scheduling (e.g. without a periodicity, not necessarily persistent).
- the embodiments may be practiced with any form of pre-scheduling, even though (semi-)persistent scheduling implementation may be more applicable for URLLC cases. Additional description of these techniques is presented after a system into which the exemplary embodiments may be used is described.

- FIG. 2 is an illustration of the proposed embodiments for the uplink 200.
- the BS 202 first configures the UE 204 with the semi-persistent scheduling information of its dedicated channels and the contention based channels, where this information can include time- frequency location and periodicity of the resources, as shown in action 206.
- This is an example, but consider also that, instead SPS with certain periodicity, it could simply be a pre-scheduling of dedicated and CB resources.
- the UE awaits for data to be driven in the dedicated resources, shown on the diagram as block 208.
- the UE 204 will be able to regularly use its pre-scheduled resources whenever it has data available for transmission, reducing signaling overhead, latency and error probability on scheduling request and granting messages.
- the UE transmits repetitions of information in symbol or TTI level.
- the UE transmits its available data using repetitions in a proactive way in order to increase the probability of success of reception.
- this action could be merely once or many repetitions.
- the BS may fail to decode the information.
- the UE will not receive an ACK from the BS, so that the UE will have to contend for the CB resources.
- the UE does not get an ACK during its transmission, then it contends for the CB channel and continues its repetitions on it as seen in the figure as action 216.
- a soft combining of the received data will substantially increase the probability of success, resulting in an acknowledgment from the BS, as can be seen from action 218.
- the same type of procedure can basically be implemented in the other direction for the downlink transmission (except for the initial configuration setting that is typically transmitted from the BS to the UE side).
- FIG. 3 depicts a representation of the information and the decision flow of an embodiment of the embodiments. It shows that the information is initially transmitted on the pre-scheduled dedicated resources. A decision to continue retransmitting on the CB resources is taken if an ACK is not received. If there is still no acknowledgement after the transmissions on the CB channel, then a decision should be taken to either continue retransmitting that information or drop it.
- This decision rule can initially be configured by the BS taking into account the QoS requirement and the maximum number of allowed repetitions per user.
- Block 302 represents the BS configuring SPS of dedicated and CB resources to UEs.
- Block 304 represents checking if there is available data to transmit. If there is, then the method proceeds to block 306 which requires a decision as to whether there is data to transmit. If yes, then the process, as shown in block 308 transmits data or any repetitions thereof on dedicated resources. If no, then the process returns to block 304.
- another decision point is reached as to whether an ACK is received. If yes, then the process returns to block 304 to determine if there is still available data to transmit. If no, then the technique calls for continuing to transmit repetitions on CB resources as shown in block 312. Once again, a decision point is reached in block 314 to determine if an ACK has been received. If yes, then he process returns to block 304 to determine if there is still available data to transmit. If no, then the technique calls for deciding whether or not to drop the data, as shown in block 316.
- the process returns to block 304 to determine once again if there is still available data to transmit. If the data is not to be dropped, then the process returns to block 308 to again transmit repetitions on dedicated resources.
- Exemplary embodiments of the current embodiments employ an optimized scheduling algorithm in the base station to allocate the amount of dedicated and contention based resources for the users in a way that prevents wasting by providing the necessary resources estimated to meet targeted latency and reliability.
- the scheduler may determine which users, and as such how many users, to allocate to specific resources on the CB channel in order to achieve a certain maximum probability of collision on these resources in view of reliability of the dedicated resources of the users.
- all users of the BS may allocated the same resources on the CB channel, which is advantageously possible when the probability of failure on the dedicated resources is adequately low to produce a low probability of collision on the CB resources, as users would rarely have to resort to the use of the CB resources.
- the scheduler may set the periodicity of CB resources to be the same or different from the periodicity of dedicated SPS resources of a UE.
- the concept can be implemented with a NACK message but there is also the possibility of implementing with an implicit NACK (that is, "no ACK”), which should be a preferable approach for the URLLC cases. In that case, it may be preferable to have the risk of a pointless transmission (which may not be energy efficient), than have the risk of not getting a retransmission when it is really needed (which could reduce the reliability and increase latency). Note that when using an explicit NACK, the node could also misunderstand an NACK as an ACK and not retransmit when is needed. As such, both approaches are shown herein. Thus, the embodiments include an enablement for a solution to prevent wasting.
- FIG. 4 illustrates a situation in which different UEs transmit their repetitions in symbol or TTI level. Some UEs might not get an ACK and will contend for continuing their repetitions on the CB channel. The probability of more than one UE needing to use the CB channel should be reduced by the pre-scheduling strategy.
- the embodiments may improve the probability of successful reception combined with reduced delays, which would be caused by negative acknowledgment and retransmissions rescheduling. In addition, it allows for allocation of large numbers of users to the same CB resource while maintaining, under typical operation, low probability of collision on these resources.
- the embodiments may avoid the signaling caused by the retransmission grants and, consequently, reduces the delays caused by re-scheduling of non-acknowledged blocks and the probability of errors on control signals.
