Handling scheduling request collisions with an ACK/NACK repetition signal

摘要

Systems and methods for handling of scheduling request collisions with an ACK/NACK repetition signal are provided. In some aspects, a scheduling request (SR) is triggered. The triggering results in a pending SR transmission. The UE determines that the pending scheduling request (SR) transmission would collide with a transmission of a repeated acknowledgement/negative acknowledgement (ACK/NACK) signal. The repeated ACK/NACK signal is part of an ACK/NACK repetition sequence. The ACK/NACK repetition sequence includes an ACK/NACK signal and at least one repeated ACK/NACKm signal. Responsive to the determining, the UE refrains from transmitting the SR and incrementing an SR counter.

1. A method in a user equipment (UE) comprising:
triggering, at the UE, a scheduling request (SR), the triggering resulting in a pending SR transmission; determining, at the UE, that the pending scheduling request (SR) transmission would collide with a transmission of a repeated acknowledgement/negative acknowledgement (ACK/NACK) signal, the repeated ACK/NACK signal being part of an ACK/NACK repetition sequence, wherein the ACK/NACK repetition sequence comprises an ACK/NACK signal and at least one repeated ACK/NACK signal; responsive to the determining, refraining from transmitting the SR; and responsive to the determining, refraining from incrementing an SR counter at the UE.
