Abstract

L'invention concerne un appareil et un procédé de communication sans fil. Le procédé mis en œuvre par un équipement utilisateur (UE) consiste à être configuré par une station de base avec un indicateur de commande de liaison descendante (DCI), le DCI étant conçu pour indiquer une première procédure d'accès à un canal et planifier une première transmission en liaison montante et une seconde transmission en liaison montante et en utilisant la première procédure d'accès à un canal indiquée par le DCI pour la première transmission en liaison montante. Ceci peut résoudre des problèmes rencontrés avec l'état de la technique, fournir une indication pertinente d'accès à un canal pour plus d'une transmission en liaison montante planifiée par un même indicateur de commande de liaison descendante (DCI) dans un spectre partagé, réduire la surcharge de signalisation, donner de bonnes performances de communication, et/ou procurer une grande fiabilité.
