Application: Expiration periods for low latency communications (Patent ID: US20240215046A1)
Qualcomm Inc. has developed methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications that involve transmitting an expiration indication for a transport block to a receiving device. This expiration indication provides information about the expiration time of the transport block, allowing the receiving device to refrain from retransmitting the block if the expiration time is reached before successful reception. Additionally, if the transmitting device does not receive an indication of successful reception from the receiving device before the expiration period, it also assumes the block has expired.
The patent claims detail the implementation of this technology in user equipment (UE) for wireless communication. The UE is designed to determine the expiration time of an uplink transport block, transmit an indication of this expiration time, transmit the block itself, and refrain from retransmitting it based on the determined expiration. The expiration time can be determined in relation to specific events like the ending symbol of a service request message or the end of a physical uplink shared channel transmission. The UE can also configure a new data indicator to further indicate the expiration time and handle retransmission grants for the transport block efficiently. Overall, these methods and devices aim to optimize wireless communication by managing the expiration of transport blocks effectively.
