Downlink control information (DCI) format for grant-less uplink transmission (GUL)

Abstract:

Described is an apparatus of a User Equipment (UE). The apparatus may comprise a first circuitry and a second circuitry. The first circuitry may be operable to process a first Downlink Control Information (DCI) format 0A transmission indicating a Grant-less Uplink (GUL) activation. The first circuitry may also be operable to process a second DCI format 0A transmission indicating a GUL release. The second circuitry may be operable to generate one or more Uplink (UL) transmissions for an unlicensed spectrum of the wireless network after the GUL activation and before the GUL release.
