CANCELLATION TIMELINE FOR UPLINK CANCELLATION INDICATION

Abstract:

Aspects relate to a scheduling entity allocating a group of scheduled entities with resources that define an uplink channel, transmitting an uplink cancellation indication (ULCI) to the group of scheduled entities identifying at least some resource blocks and OFDM symbols in the allocated resources that are canceled for use as the uplink channel, obtaining a processing time of a scheduled entity, where the scheduled entity may use the processing time to process a command from the scheduling entity, the processing time is based on a reference subcarrier spacing (SCS) that may be less than or equal to a downlink SCS of a downlink channel carrying the ULCI, and waiting at least the processing time before utilizing the at least some resource blocks and OFDM symbols for a purpose other than the uplink channel. A scheduled entity receives the ULCI and may process the ULCI after expiry of the processing time.
