- Frame structure 900 may include a fast shared channel 901, a regular downlink shared channel 902 and a regular uplink shared channel 903, wherein fast shared channel 901 is separated from, and preceding, downlink shared channel 902 and an uplink shared channel 903 in each subframe 910, 920.
- fast shared channel 901 may be received, decoded and/or acknowledged by a receiving device separately and before downlink shared channel 902 and/or uplink shared channel 903.
- Some embodiments of the present invention are applicable for LTE vehicle-to- everything communications, which have tight requirements on both the downlink and uplink latencies.
- the fast high priority channels may be utilized in case a car driver sends a notification to other drivers and/or pedestrians, for example about a road hazard, for example in direct device to device communication.
- some embodiments of the present invention may be applicable for Machine Type Communications (MTC), for cellular Internet of Things (IoT) and for other types of communication that may require low latency and high reliability.
- MTC Machine Type Communications
- IoT Internet of Things
- composition or method may include additional ingredients and/or steps, but only if the additional ingredients and/or steps do not materially alter the basic and novel characteristics of the claimed composition or method.
- a compound or “at least one compound” may include a plurality of compounds, including mixtures thereof.
- range format is merely for convenience and brevity and should not be construed as an inflexible limitation on the scope of the invention. Accordingly, the description of a range should be considered to have specifically disclosed all the possible subranges as well as individual numerical values within that range. For example, description of a range such as from 1 to 6 should be considered to have specifically disclosed subranges such as from 1 to 3, from 1 to 4, from 1 to 5, from 2 to 4, from 2 to 6, from 3 to 6 etc., as well as individual numbers within that range, for example, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, and 6. This applies regardless of the breadth of the range.
