Definitions
- transport block size may be determined based on a variety of factors, including available resources, modulation and coding scheme (MCS), number of multiple-input multiple- output (MIMO) layers, and other parameters configured over high layer signalling.
- MCS modulation and coding scheme
- MIMO multiple-input multiple- output
- channel coding chains may follow a predetermined procedure independent of how resource allocation is performed in the frequency domain and time domains.
- a large frequency domain allocation with a small time domain allocation may have the same TBS, while a large time domain allocation may be used with a small frequency domain allocation, similar to the TBS determination as described in 3GPP technical specification (TS) 38.214, section 5.1.3, and channel coding chain, as described in 3GPP TS 38.212.

- 3GPP radio access network (RAN)l describes cross-link interference (CLI) handling and remote interference management (RIM) for NR based upon coordination between network entities.
- CLI cross-link interference
- RIM remote interference management
- indications of time-domain resources may be exchanged for inter-next generation evolved node B (gNB) exchanges of intended UL/DL configurations.
- the direction of time resources may be designated as at least one intended downlink (DL) slot/symbol or at least one intended UL slot/symbol.
- the remaining region which is not indicated as DL or UL may be interpreted as unused or flexible.
- the indicated configuration may be assumed to be valid until a new configuration is received, and the information exchange may not require specific behavior at the receiving and/or transmitting gNB.
- UL/DL configuration and time domain resources indications may be exchanged between gNBs, but it remains undetermined how a gNB may use this information.
- FIG. 1 illustrates a current procedure related to ACK/NACK processing, where response times of ACK/NACK have the disadvantage of varying greatly between different UEs, making it difficult to align UL and DL feedback resources across different cells. As a result, the failure to align UL/DL configurations properly may generate significant CLI between UEs. Furthermore, unequal interferences experienced at different parts of the resource allocation may cause TB decoding failure.
- the use of different slot formats may be required, which may result in significant CLI at the UE in the first cell when still in DL, while the UE in the second cell may attempt to transmit the ACK/NACK feedback in UL, as shown in FIGS. 2 and 3.
- not all resource blocks may experience the same level of CLI at the receiver side, and, as shown in FIGS. 2 and 3, UE2 may experience severe CLI when UE1 initiates PUCCH transmission.
- FIG. 4 illustrates a frame structure name of self-contained sub-frames according to 3GPP. Specifically, when a UE in a neighboring cell (or operating on a different operator) uses a different frame structure, the distribution of CLI differs for some last symbols of the sub-frame, resulting in those symbols experiencing the most CLI for a regular slot without UL allocation.
- Rel-15 may address some effects of CLI.
- Rel-15 may allow both RB level and resource element (RE) level rate matching, and/or may be used at different gNBs to avoid data transmissions in the impacted resource allocations.
- rate matching typically only improves the resource utilization by mapping data symbols around REs/RBs associated with transmitted reference signals (RS).
- RS transmitted reference signals
- the last OFDM symbols for physical downlink shared channel (PDSCH) for UE2 may not be allocated or rate-matched, leaving those resources unaffected by the PUCCH transmission of UE1.
- PDSCH physical downlink shared channel
- such a technique has the disadvantage of limiting the use of full resources at one cell, while also hindering the overall performance in a similar way as having CLI.
- CBG-based ACK/NACK feedback Another technique for reducing CLI may relate to code block group (CBG)- based ACK/NACK feedback. While this may allow retransmission of the failed CBGs with a much lower resource utilization than a full TB retransmission, if the CLI persists, CBG-based retransmissions may be inefficient since this is merely a retransmission overhead reduction technique.
- CBG code block group
- Certain embodiments described herein may have various benefits and/or advantages to overcome the disadvantages described above by optimizing UE processing time for URLLC UE with self-contained sub-frames to reduce UL/DL interference. Furthermore, some embodiments provide an extension of Rel-15 for rate matching without significantly changing any bits allocated for each coded block. In addition, some embodiments of the TBS determination process described below may improve spectral efficiency at the UE by utilizing a first modulation order in unaffected regions, and a second modulation order in affected regions.
- some embodiments described herein may provide backwards- compatibility with Rel-15 due to their low complexity and lack of requiring hardware changes.
