    Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communication for adaptive ultra-reliable low-latency communications (URLLC) semi-persistent scheduling (SPS) are described. One method includes determining a data packet payload size for a transmission using SPS resources in a transmission time interval (TTI). The method also includes sending a release signal to release a portion of the SPS resources in the TTI based on the size and transmitting the data packet during the TTI using unreleased SPS resources. Another method includes identifying that a packet profile of packets transmitted on SPS resources varies by more than a packet profile threshold and sending, based at least in part on the identifying, a request-to-update (RTU) signal to update the SPS resources. The method also include receiving a confirmation of receipt of the RTU signal and updating a resource allocation or a resource attribute based at least in part on the packet profile and confirmation of receipt.

    Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communication are described. A wireless device may receive a semi-persistent scheduling (SPS) grant of initial resources for receiving a transmission, receive, in a group control channel, a resource allocation for additional resources for receiving the transmission, determine resources for receiving the transmission based on the resource allocation and the SPS grant, and receive the transmission on the determined resources. A base station may transmit a SPS grant for scheduling a transmission on a set of resources, receive a feedback report from a user equipment (UE) indicating the UE requires additional resources for receiving the transmission, generate, based at least on the UE requiring the additional resources, a resource allocation for scheduling the additional resources for the UE, transmit the resource allocation in a group control channel, and transmit the transmission on the set of resources and the additional resources.

    Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described for providing acknowledgements of grant-free uplink transmissions, which may in some cases be used for low latency communications. Approaches described herein include the use of per-user equipment (UE) acknowledgement resources assigned to UEs configured for grant-free uplink transmissions as well as the use of per-group acknowledgement resources assigned to groups of UEs configured for grant-free uplink transmissions. Dynamic puncturing of data in a shared downlink data channel may be used in the context of per-UE acknowledgement resource assignment. Corresponding grants of uplink transmission resources may be used in the context of per-group acknowledgement resources assignments.

    Abstract: Techniques are described herein to provide priority traffic grant-less access to pre-defined communication resources that are semi-persistently scheduled. A set of semi-persistent communication resources may be reserved for use by priority traffic. If not used for priority traffic, the semi-persistent resources may be scheduled for use by other types of traffic. As priority traffic is identified, the priority traffic may be transmitted using the semi-persistent resource without having those communication resources granted by a scheduling entity. Such grant-less access to the semi-persistent resources may result in interference between the scheduled traffic and the priority traffic communicated without first scheduling the specific communication resources. To mitigate interference between different traffic types, a user equipment (UE) may transmit a device-to-device silencing message to other UEs. Upon receiving the silencing message, the other UEs may release any scheduled communication resources that at least partially overlap with the semi-persistent resources.

    Abstract: Certain aspects of the present disclosure relate to wireless communication systems, and more particularly, to link-dependent scheduling request (SR) formats for ultra-reliable low-latency communications (URLLC) in communication systems operating according to new radio (NR) technologies. A method is provided, that may be performed by a base station (BS) for wireless communications. The method includes determining one or more channel conditions for a link between the BS and a user equipment (UE). The BS assigns a SR format to the UE based on the one or more channel conditions. The UE receives the SR format assignment and transmits one or more SR transmissions to the BS according to the assigned SR format.

    Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communication are described to provide priority traffic grant-less access to pre-defined communication resources that are semi-persistently scheduled. A set of semi-persistent communication resources may be reserved for use by priority traffic. If the semi-persistent resources are not used for priority traffic, the semi-persistent resources may be scheduled for use by other types of traffic. As priority traffic is identified, the priority traffic may be transmitted using the semi-persistent resource without having those communication resources granted by a scheduling entity. Such grant-less access to the semi-persistent resources may result in collisions between the scheduled traffic and the priority traffic. To mitigate interference between different traffic types, the scheduled traffic may be transmitted using a transmission power that ensures an interference parameter indicative of an amount of interference imposed by the scheduled traffic on the priority traffic satisfies an interference threshold.

    Abstract: A first apparatus may puncture, in at least two subslots, a first type of data or control information with a second type of data or control information. The first apparatus may bundle the least two subslots within a subframe, and the subframe may include a portion for carrying acknowledgment (ACK)/negative acknowledgment (NACK) information associated with the second type of data or control information. The first apparatus may communicate with a user equipment (UE) during the at least two subslots within the subframe. A second apparatus may receive ACK/NACK information associated with a second type of data or control information. The second apparatus may reduce a transmission power for a first type of data or control information during a subsequent subframe when the ACK/NACK information indicates a negative acknowledgement.
