Scheduling and transmission scheme for periodic and aperiodic control information

Abstract:

Aspects of the present disclosure provide a scheduling and transmission scheme to manage multiple uplink control information (UCI) resource grants for periodic and aperiodic UCI for a particular user equipment (UE). Grant selection rules may be defined to enable the UE to select one or more of the UCI resource grants allocated within a particular period of time. In addition, the grant selection rules may further enable the UE to combine both periodic and aperiodic UCI within a particular UCI resource grant. The grant selection rules may further enable the UE to multiplex UCI over multiple UCI resource grants. Other aspects, embodiments, and features are also claimed and described.
