Uplink scheduling techniques for enhanced feedback in wireless communications

Abstract:

Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described for efficient allocation of feedback resources and transmission of feedback for low latency communications. A first user equipment (UE) may be allocated uplink resources for uplink transmissions having one or more gaps during which a second UE may transmit feedback information to initiate a retransmission within specified time limits to achieve desired quality of service (QoS) targets. The one or more gaps may be provided through a downlink control information message that indicates uplink resources to the first UE based on a first starting transmission symbol and a first length indicator, and a second starting transmission symbol and a second length indicator. The one or more gaps may be additionally or alternatively provided through one or more reserved symbols, and the first UE may skip uplink transmissions in one or more reserved symbols.
