REVELATION FIELD
[0002] [0002] This application relates to wireless communication systems and, more particularly, to methods and apparatus for feedback from device to device. BACKGROUND
[0003] [0003] Wireless communication systems are widely installed to provide various telecommunication services such as telephony, video, data, messages and broadcasts. Typical wireless communication systems can employ multiple access technologies capable of supporting communication with multiple users by sharing available system resources. Examples of such multiple access technologies include code division multiple access systems (CDMA), time division multiple access systems (TDMA), frequency division multiple access systems (FDMA),
[0004] [0004] These multiple access technologies have been adopted in several telecommunication standards to provide a common protocol that allows different wireless devices to communicate at a municipal, national, regional and even global level. An exemplary telecommunication standard is the New Radio 5G (NR). 5G NR is part of a continuous mobile broadband evolution promulgated by the Third Generation Partnership Project (3GPP) to meet new requirements associated with latency, reliability, security, scalability (for example, with Internet of Things (IoT)), and other requirements. Some aspects of 5G NR may be based on the 4G Long Term Evolution (LTE) pattern. An area of interest for further development in 5G NR and other communication standards (for example, LTE) is device-to-device (D2D) communications, which may include vehicle-to-everything (V2X) and vehicle-to-vehicle (V2V) communications. In D2D, devices can communicate directly with each other through side link communications (“sidelink”). SUMMARY
[0005] [0005] The following is a simplified summary of one or more aspects in order to provide a basic understanding of such aspects.

[0020] [0020] The detailed description presented below, together with the accompanying drawings, is intended to be a description of various configurations and is not intended to represent the only configurations in which the concepts described in this document can be practiced. The detailed description includes specific details in order to provide a complete understanding of several concepts. However, it will be evident to those skilled in the art that these concepts can be practiced without these specific details. In some cases, well-known structures and components are shown in the form of a block diagram in order to avoid the lack of clarity of such concepts.
[0021] [0021] Various aspects of telecommunication systems will now be presented with reference to various devices and methods. These devices and methods will be described in the following detailed description and illustrated in the accompanying drawings by means of various blocks, components,
[0022] [0022] As an example, an element or any portion of an element or any combination of elements can be implemented as a "processing system" that includes one or more processors. Examples of processors include microprocessors, microcontrollers, graphics processing units (GPUs), central processing units (CPUs), application processors, digital signal processors (DSPs), reduced instruction set computing (RISC) processors, systems on a chip (SoC), baseband processors, field programmable port arrangements (FPGAs), programmable logic devices (PLDs), state machines, switching logic, discrete hardware circuits and other suitable hardware configured to perform the several features described throughout this disclosure. One or more processors in the processing system can run the software. The software should be interpreted broadly to mean instructions, instruction sets, code, code segments, program code, programs, subprograms, software components, applications, software applications, software packages, routines, subroutines, objects, executables,
[0023] [0023] Consequently, in one or more exemplifying modalities, the functions described can be implemented in hardware, software or any combination thereof. If implemented in software, the functions can be stored in or encoded as one or more instructions or code on computer-readable media. Computer-readable media includes computer storage media. Storage media can be any available media that can be accessed by a computer. By way of example, and not by way of limitation, such computer-readable media may comprise a random access memory (RAM), a read-only memory (ROM), an electrically erasable programmable ROM (EEPROM), optical disk storage, magnetic disk storage, other magnetic storage devices, combinations of the aforementioned types of computer-readable media, or any other media that can be used to store computer-executable code in the form of data structures or instructions that can be accessed by a computer .
[0024] [0024] Figure 1 is a diagram illustrating an example of a wireless communication system and an access network 100, according to various aspects of the present disclosure. The wireless communication system (also called a wireless wide area network (WW AN)) includes base stations 102, UEs 104 and an evolved packet core (EPC) 160. Base stations 102 can include macrocells ( high-power cell base station) and / or small cells (low-power cell base station). The macrocells include base stations. Small cells include femtocells, picocells and microcells.
[0025] [0025] Base stations 102 (collectively referred to as the terrestrial radio access network (E-UTRAN) of the universal mobile telecommunication system (UMTS)) interface with the EPC 160 through backhaul links 132 (for example, interface S1). In addition to other functions, base stations 102 can perform one or more of the following functions: user data transfer, radio channel encryption and decryption, integrity protection, header compression, mobility control functions (for example , automatic switching, dual connectivity), inter-cell interference coordination, connection release and configuration, load balancing, distribution to stratum messages without access (NAS), NAS node selection, synchronization, radio access network sharing ( RAN), multimedia diffusion multipoint service (MBMS), equipment and subscriber tracking, RAN information management (RIM), paging, positioning and delivery of warning messages. Base stations 102 can communicate directly or indirectly (for example, via EPC 160) with each other on backhaul links 134 (for example, interface X2). The backhaul links 134 can be wired or wireless.
[0026] [0026] Base stations 102 can communicate wirelessly with UEs 104. Each of base stations 102 can provide communication coverage for a respective geographic coverage area 110. There may be geographic coverage areas 110. For example, small cell 102 'may have a coverage area 110' that overlaps coverage area 110 of one or more base stations 102. A network that includes both small cells and macrocells may be known as a heterogeneous network. A heterogeneous network can also include domestic evolved B nodes (eNBs) (HeNBs), which can provide service to a restricted group known as a closed subscriber group (CSG). Communication links 120 between base stations 102 and UEs 104 may include uplink (UL) transmissions (also referred to as a reverse link) from UE 104 to base station 102 and / or link transmissions downward (DL) (also known as direct link) from a base station 102 to a UE 104. Communication links 120 can use multiple input and multiple output antenna technology (MIMO), including spatial multiplexing, formation beam and / or transmission diversity. The communication links can be through one or more carriers. Base stations 102 / UEs 104 can use the spectrum up to the Y MHz bandwidth (for example, 5, 10, 15, 20, 100 Mhz), for example, per carrier allocated in a carrier aggregation of up to one total Yx MHz (x component carriers) used for transmission in each direction. The carriers may or may not be adjacent to each other. The allocation of carriers can be asymmetric in relation to DL and UL (for example, more or less carriers can be allocated to DL in relation to UL). Component carriers may include a primary component carrier and one or more secondary component carriers. A primary component carrier can be termed as a primary cell (PCell) and a secondary component carrier can be termed as a secondary cell (SCell).
[0027] [0027] In aspects, the wireless communication system may additionally include a Wi-Fi access point (AP) 150 in communication with Wi-Fi stations (STAs) 152 through communication links 154 in a frequency spectrum unlicensed 5 GHz. By communicating over an unlicensed frequency spectrum, STAs 152 / AP 150 can perform a free channel assessment (CCA) prior to communication in order to determine if the channel is available.
[0028] [0028] Small cell 102 'can operate on a licensed and / or unlicensed frequency spectrum. By operating on an unlicensed frequency spectrum, small cell 102 'can employ NR and use the same unlicensed 5 GHz frequency spectrum as used by Wi-Fi AP 150. Small cell 102', which employs NR on an unlicensed frequency spectrum, can reinforce coverage and / or increase the capacity of the access network.
[0029] [0029] A gNodeB (gNB) 180 can operate at millimeter wave frequencies (mmW) and / or frequencies of almost mmW in communication with UE 104. When gNB 180 operates at frequencies of mmW or almost mmW, gNB 180 can be called an mmW base station. The extremely high frequency (EHF) is part of the RF in the electromagnetic spectrum. EHF has a range of 30 GHz to 300 GHz and a wavelength between 1 mm and 10 mm. The radio waves in the band can be termed as a millimeter wave. At almost mmW it can extend up to a frequency of 3 GHz with a wavelength of 100 millimeters. The superhigh frequency band (SHF) extends between 3 GHz and 30 GHz, also known as centimeter wave. Communications using the mmW / almost mmW radio frequency band have an extremely high path loss and a short range. The 180 mmW base station can use beamform 184 with UE 104 to compensate for extremely high path loss and short range.
[0030] [0030] EPC 160 may include a Mobility Management Entity (MME) 162, other MMEs 164, a Service Communication Port 166, a Multicast and Multimedia Broadcast Service Communication Port (MBMS) 168, a Multicast and Broadcast Service Center (BM-SC) 170 and a Packet Data Network (PDN) Communication Port 172. MME 162 can be in communication with a home subscriber server (HSS) 174. MME 162 is the control node that processes signaling between UE 104 and EPC
[0031] [0031] The base station can also be referred to as a gNB, Node B, evolved Node B (eNB), an access point, a transceiver base station, a radio base station, a radio transceiver, a transceiver function, a set of basic services (BSS), a set of extended services (ESS) or some other suitable terminology. Base station 102 provides an access point to EPC 160 for a UE 104. Examples of UEs 104 include a cell phone, a smart phone, a session initiation protocol (SIP) phone, a laptop computer, a personal digital assistant (PDA), a satellite radio, a global positioning system, a multimedia device, a video device, a digital audio player (for example, MP3 player), a camera, a game console , a tablet-type computer, a smart device, a device that can be worn close to the body, a vehicle, an electric meter, a gas pump, a toaster or any other similarly functioning device. Some of the UEs 104 can be termed as IoT devices (for example, parking meter, gas pump, toaster, vehicles, etc.). UE 104 can also be referred to as a station, a mobile station, a subscriber station, a mobile unit, a subscriber unit, a wireless unit, a remote unit, a mobile device, a wireless device, a wireless device wireless communication, a remote device, a mobile subscriber station, an access terminal, a mobile terminal, a wireless terminal, a remote terminal, a handset, a user agent, a mobile client, a customer or some other terminology proper.
[0032] [0032] Again with reference to Figure 1, in certain aspects, the UE 104 can be configured to carry out a side link communication (for example, with the use of a 192 carrier as a side link carrier) with a second UE 104 'for device to device communication (D2D). In aspects, D2D communication can include vehicle-to-everything communication (V2X) or vehicle-to-vehicle communication (V2V). UE 104 can communicate with a second UE 104 'through carrier 192 using one or more side link communication structures that have at least one feedback symbol. In one aspect, at least a portion of a plurality of frequency bands for carrier 192 corresponds to a frequency spectrum of Intelligent Transport System for a side link carrier. In aspects, D2D communication can include D2D feedback communication (for example, D2D side link feedback) as described in this document.
[0033] [0033] Figure 2A is a diagram 200 that illustrates an exemplary frame structure of one or more downlink frames (DL), in accordance with various aspects of the present disclosure. Figure 2B is a diagram 230 illustrating an example of channels within the frame structure of a DL frame, in accordance with various aspects of the present disclosure. Figure 2C is a diagram 250 that illustrates an exemplary frame structure of one or more uplink frames (UL), in accordance with various aspects of the present disclosure. Figure 2D is a diagram 280 that illustrates an example of channels within the frame structure of a UL board, in accordance with various aspects of the present disclosure. Other wireless communication technologies may have a different frame structure and / or different channels.
[0034] [0034] As shown in Figure 2A, some of the REs carry DL reference signals (pilot) (DL-RS) for channel estimation in the UE. DL-RS can include cell-specific reference signals (CRS) (for example, sometimes also called common RS), UE-specific reference signals (UE-RS) and channel status information reference signals ( CSI-RS). Figure 2A illustrates CRS for antenna ports 0, 1, 2 and 3 (indicated as R0, R1, R2 and R3, respectively), UE-RS for antenna port 5 (indicated as R5) and CSI-RS for antenna port antenna 15 (indicated as R). Figure 2B illustrates an example of several channels within a DL subframe of a frame.
[0035] [0035] As illustrated in Figure 2C, some of the REs carry demodulation reference signals (DM-RS) for channel estimation at the base station. The UE can additionally transmit probe reference signals (SRS) at the last symbol of a subframe. The SRS can have a comb structure and a UE can transmit SRS on one of the combs. The SRS can be used by a base station to estimate channel quality to enable frequency-dependent programming at UL. Figure 2D illustrates an example of several channels within a UL subframe of a frame. A physical random access channel (PRACH) can be within one or more subframes within a frame based on the PRACH configuration. PRACH can include six consecutive RB pairs within a subframe. PRACH allows the UE to perform initial system access and obtain UL synchronization. A physical uplink control channel (PUCCH) can be located at the edges of the UL system bandwidth. The PUCCH carries uplink control (UCI) information, such as scheduling requests, a channel quality indicator (CQI), a pre-coding matrix indicator (PMI), a classification indicator (RI) and feedback from HARQ ACK / NACK. The PUSCH carries data and can be additionally used to carry a temporary storage progress report (BSR), an energy capacity report (PHR) and / or UCI.
[0036] [0036] Figure 3 is a block diagram of a base station 310 in communication with a UE 350 on an access network. In DL, IP packets from EPC 160 can be delivered to a 375 controller / processor. The 375 controller / processor deploys layer 3 and layer 2 functionality. Layer 3 includes a radio resource control layer ( RRC) and layer 2 includes a packet data convergence protocol layer (PDCP), a radio link control layer (RLC) and a media access control layer (MAC). The 375 controller / processor provides RRC layer functionality associated with the diffusion of system information (for example, MIB, SIBs), RRC connection control (for example, RRC connection paging, RRC connection establishment, modification of RRC connection and RRC connection release), mobility of inter-radio access technology (RAT), and measurement configuration for UE measurement report; PDCP layer functionality associated with header compression / decompression, security (encryption, decryption, integrity protection, integrity checking), and automatic switch support functions; RLC layer functionality associated with the transfer of upper layer packet data units (PDUs), error correction through ARQ, concatenation, segmentation and reassembly of RLC service data units (SDUs), PDU re-segmentation of RLC data, and reordering of RLC data PDUs; and MAC layer functionality associated with mapping between logical channels and transport channels, multiplexing MAC SDUs in transport blocks (TBs), demultiplexing MAC SDUs from TBs, programming information reporting, error correction through HARQ, priority handling and logical channel prioritization.
[0037] [0037] The transmission processor (TX) 316 and the receiving processor (RX) 370 implement layer 1 functionality associated with various signal processing functions. Layer 1, which includes a physical layer (PHY), can include error detection on transport channels, encoding / decoding forward error correction (FEC) of transport channels, interleaving, rate matching, mapping on physical channels , modulation / demodulation of physical channels and MEVIO antenna processing. The TX 316 processor handles mapping for signal constellations based on various modulation schemes (for example, binary phase shift switching (BPSK), quadrature phase shift switching (QPSK), M phase shift switching ( M-PSK), modulated amplitude modulation M (M-QAM)). The coded and modulated symbols can then be divided into parallel streams. Each flow can then be mapped to an OFDM subcarrier, multiplexed with a reference signal (for example, pilot) in the time and / or frequency domain, and then combined together using a Transform Inverse Fast Fourier (IFFT) to produce a physical channel that carries a time domain OFDM symbol stream. The OFDM stream is spatially pre-coded to produce multiple spatial streams. Channel estimates from a channel estimator 374 can be used to determine the modulation and coding scheme, as well as for spatial processing. The channel estimate can be derived from a channel condition feedback and / or reference signal transmitted by the UE 350. Each spatial flow can then be supplied to a different antenna 320 via a separate 318TX transmitter. Each 318TX transmitter can modulate an RF carrier with a corresponding spatial flow for transmission.
[0038] [0038] In the UE 350, each 354RX receiver receives a signal through its respective 352 antenna. Each 354RX receiver retrieves modulated information on an RF carrier and provides the information to the receiving processor (RX)
[0039] [0039] The 359 controller / processor can be associated with a 360 memory that stores data and program codes. 360 memory can be termed as a computer-readable medium. At UL, the 359 controller / processor provides demultiplexing between logical and transport channels, packet reassembly, decryption, header decompression, and control signal processing to retrieve IP packets from the EPC 160. The 359 controller / processor is also responsible by detecting error using an ACK and / or NACK protocol to support HARQ operations.
[0040] [0040] Similar to the functionality described in connection with DL transmission by base station 310, the 359 controller / processor provides RRC layer functionality associated with the acquisition of system information (for example, MIB, SIBs), network connections RRC and measurement report; the PDCP layer functionality associated with header compression / decompression and security (encryption, decryption, integrity protection, integrity verification); RLC layer functionality associated with the transfer of top layer PDUs, error correction through ARQ, concatenation, segmentation and reassembly of RLC SDUs, re-segmentation of RLC data PDUs and reordering of RLC data PDUs; and MAC layer functionality associated with mapping between logical channels and transport channels, multiplexing MAC SDUs into TBs, demultiplexing MAC SDUs from TBs, programming information reporting, error correction through HARQ, manipulation priority and logical channel prioritization.
[0041] [0041] Channel estimates derived by a 358 channel estimator from a reference or feedback signal transmitted by base station 310 can be used by the TX processor 368 to select the appropriate modulation and coding schemes and to facilitate spatial processing. The spatial streams generated by the TX 368 processor can be provided to the different antenna 352 via separate transmitters 354TX. Each 354TX transmitter can modulate an RF carrier with a corresponding spatial flow for transmission.
[0042] [0042] The UL transmission is processed at base station 310 in a similar manner to that described in connection with the receiver function in UE 350. Each 318RX receiver receives a signal through its respective antenna 320. Each 318RX receiver retrieves modulated information in an RF carrier and provides the information for an RX 370 processor.
[0043] [0043] The 375 controller / processor can be associated with a 376 memory that stores data and program codes. Memory 376 can be termed as a computer-readable medium. At UL, the 375 controller / processor provides demultiplexing between logical and transport channels, packet reassembly, decryption, header decompression, control signal processing to retrieve IP packets from the UE 350. IP packets from the controller / processor 375 can be provided for the EPC
[0044] [0044] One or more components of UE 350 can be configured to perform D2D feedback methods, as described in more detail elsewhere in this document. For example, controller / processor 359 and / or other processors and modules of UE 350 may perform or direct operations, for example, of process 800 of Figure 8 and / or other processes as described in this document. In some respects, one or more of the components shown in Figure 3 can be employed to carry out the example process 800 of Figure 8 and / or other processes as described in this document.
[0045] [0045] In some respects, the UE 350 may include a means for communicating a side link traffic communication using a side link communication structure, and a means for communicating an allocation for side link feedback using the hair. least one feedback symbol from the side link communication structure. In some aspects, the UE 350 may include a means for communicating a side link feedback communication using at least one side link communication structure symbol, where side link feedback communication is associated with communication side link traffic. In some respects, such means may include one or more components of the UE 350 described in connection with Figure
[0046] [0046] Figure 4 is a diagram of a D2D 400 communication system, which, for example, can include V2X communication system and / or V2V communication system. For example, the D2D 400 communication system may include a first vehicle 450 'that communicates with a second vehicle 45 Γ. In some respects, the first vehicle 450 'and / or the second vehicle 45 can be configured to communicate over a specific spectrum, such as a spectrum of intelligent transport systems (ITS). The ITS spectrum may be unlicensed and, therefore, a plurality of different technologies may use the ITS spectrum for communication, including LTE, LTE-Advanced, Licensed Assisted Access (LAA), Dedicated Short Range Communications (DSRC), 5G , new radio (NR), 4G and the like. The previously mentioned list of technologies should be considered as illustrative, and is not intended to be exhaustive.
[0047] [0047] The D2D 400 communication system can use LTE technology or another technology (for example, 5G NR). For example, a vehicle in D2D communication can incorporate a UE with LTE technology or 5G NR. In D2D communication (for example, V2X communication or V2V communication), vehicles 450 ', 45 may be on different networks of mobile network operators (MNOs). Each of the networks can operate on its own frequency spectrum. For example, the air interface for a first vehicle 450 '(for example, the Uu interface) can be in one or more different frequency bands than the air interface of the second vehicle 451'. The first vehicle 450 'and the second vehicle 45 can communicate via a side link (for example, using a carrier 192 as a side link carrier), for example, via a PC5 interface. In some examples, MNOs can program side link communication between or across vehicles 450 ', 45 in V2X spectrum (for example, V2V spectrum). An example of the V2X spectrum can include the frequency spectrum of the intelligent transport system (ITS). The ITS spectrum may be unlicensed and, therefore, a plurality of different technologies may use the ITS spectrum for communication, including LTE, LTE-Advanced, Licensed Assisted Access (LAA), Dedicated Short Range Communications (DSRC), 5G , new radio (NR), 4G and the like. The previously mentioned list of technologies should be considered as illustrative, and is not intended to be exhaustive. However, in some aspects, a D2D communication (for example, a side link communication) between or through 450 ', 45 vehicles is not programmed by MNOs.
[0048] [0048] The D2D 400 communication system may be present where devices (for example, vehicles) operate on different MNO networks and / or different frequency spectra. For example, each of the vehicles in a D2D communication system (for example, V2V or V2X) can have a subscription from the corresponding corresponding MNO. The V2X spectrum can be shared with the frequency spectra of MNOs. In some examples, the D2D communication system (for example, V2V or V2X) 400 can be installed where the first vehicle 450 'operates on the network operated by a first MNO and the second vehicle 45 is not on a network - for example, the V2X spectrum may not have a network installed.
[0049] [0049] The first vehicle 450 'may be in D2D communication (for example, V2V or V2X) with the second vehicle 451'. The first 450 ’vehicle incorporates a first
[0050] [0050] The first network 410 operates on a first frequency spectrum and includes the first base station 420 that communicates at least with the first UE 450, for example, as described in Figures 1 to 3. The first base station 420 can communicate with the first UE 450 through a DL 430 carrier and / or an UL 440 carrier. DL communication can be carried out via the DL 430 carrier using various DL features (for example, DL subframes (Figure 2A) and / or DL channels (Figure 2B)). UL communication can be accomplished through the UL 440 carrier using various UL resources (for example, UL sub frames (Figure 2C) and UL channels (Figure 2D)).
[0051] [0051] In some respects, the second UE 451 may not be on a network. In some respects, the second UE 451 may be on a second network 411 (for example, the second MNO). The second network 411 can operate on a second frequency spectrum (for example, a second frequency spectrum different from the first frequency spectrum) and can include the second base station 421 that communicates with the second UE 451, for example, as described in Figures 1 to 3.
[0052] [0052] The second base station 421 can communicate with the second UE 451 through a DL 431 bearer and an UL 441. bearer. DL communication is carried out through the DL 431 bearer using the various DL (for example, DL subframes (Figure 2A) and / or DL channels (Figure 2B)). UL communication is carried out through the UL 441 carrier using various UL resources (for example, the UL sub frames (Figure 2C) and / or the UL channels (Figure 2D)).
[0053] [0053] D2D communication (for example, V2V or V2X) can be performed through one or more side link carriers 470, 480. The one or less side link carriers 470, 480 can include one or more channels, such as a physical side link diffusion channel (PSBCH), a physical side link discovery channel (PSDCH), a shared side link physical channel (PSSCH) and a physical side link control channel (PSCCH), for example.
[0054] [0054] In some examples, side link carriers 470, 480 can operate using the PC5 interface. The first UE 450 (for example, incorporated in the first vehicle 450 ') can transmit to one or more (for example, multiple) devices, including the second UE 451 (for example, incorporated in the second vehicle 45) through the first carrier side link 470. The second UE 451 can transmit to one or more (for example, multiple)
[0055] [0055] In some respects, the carrier of UL 440 and the first side link carrier 470 can be aggregated to increase bandwidth. In some respects, the first side link carrier 470 and / or the second side link carrier 480 may share the first frequency spectrum (with the first network 410) and / or share the second frequency spectrum (with the second network 411 ). In some respects, side link carriers 470, 480 can operate in an unlicensed spectrum.
[0056] [0056] The exemplifying methods and devices discussed below are applicable to any of a variety of D2D wireless communication systems (for example, V2V or V2X). To simplify the discussion, the exemplifying methods and devices can be discussed within the context of LTE. However, one skilled in the art would understand that exemplifying methods and devices are more generally applicable to a variety of other D2D wireless communication systems (for example, V2V or V2X), including 5G.
[0057] [0057] In some respects, a side link communication on a side link carrier can occur between the first UE 450 (for example, incorporated in the first vehicle 450 ') and the second UE 451 (for example, incorporated in the second vehicle 451 ). In one aspect, the first UE 450 (for example, incorporated in the first vehicle 450 ') can carry out a side link communication with one or more (for example, multiple) devices, including the second UE 451 (for example, incorporated in the second vehicle 451 ') through the first side link carrier 470. For example, the first UE 450 can transmit a broadcast transmission through the first side link carrier 470 to multiple devices (for example, the second and third UEs 451, 452). The second UE 451 (for example, among other UEs) can receive such a broadcast transmission.
[0058] [0058] In some respects, for example, such side link communication on a side link carrier between the first UE 450 and the second UE 451 can occur without MNOs allocating resources (for example, one or more portions of a block of resource (RB), interval, frequency band and / or channel associated with a side link carrier 470, 480) for such communication and / or without programming such communication. In some aspects, a side link communication may include traffic communication (for example, data communication, control communication, paging communication and / or system information communication). In addition, in aspects, a side link communication may include a side link feedback communication associated with a traffic communication (e.g., a transmission of feedback information to a previously received traffic communication). In some aspects, a side link communication may employ at least one side link communication structure that has at least one feedback symbol. The side link communication structure symbol can allocate any side link feedback information that can be communicated in the device-to-device (D2D) communication system 400 between devices (for example, a first vehicle 450 'and a second vehicle 451 ').
[0059] [0059] In aspects, a side link traffic communication and / or a side link feedback communication can be associated with one or more transmission time intervals (TTIs). In aspects, an ITT can be 0.5 ms, although a higher or lower value can be used. In some aspects, a TTI may be associated with and / or correspond to a range of communication structure. However, a TTI can be associated with a different and / or larger or smaller unit of time and / or communication structure dimension (for example, one or more intervals, subframes or frames). In the aspects of the present methods and apparatus, a side link communication (e.g. side link traffic communication and / or a side link feedback communication) in the D2D 400 communication system can include at least one link communication structure side which has a side link feedback symbol (for example, to allocate communication of feedback information). For example, during a first TTI, a device in the D2D 400 communication system (for example, the first vehicle 450 ') that transmits a side-link traffic communication using the side-link communication structure that has a side link feedback may stop transmitting traffic information on one or more portions of the side link feedback symbol. In aspects, side link traffic communication can be transmitted by the first vehicle 450 'to one or more of any remaining devices (for example, to the second vehicle 451') in the D2D 400 communication system. In addition, during the first TTI , another device in the D2D 400 communication system (for example, the second vehicle 45) that is transmitting a side link feedback communication using the wireless communication structure that has a side link feedback symbol can transmit information feedback in one or more portions of the side link feedback symbol. In this way, side link communication (for example, including side link traffic communication and side link feedback communication) can occur effectively, without MNOs having to allocate resources for such communication and / or without MNOs have to program such communication.
[0060] [0060] Figure 5 is a diagram illustrating an exemplary side link communication structure 500, according to various aspects of the present disclosure. The side link communication structure 500 can be defined by resources in a frequency domain and a time domain. For example, the side link communication structure 500 can represent a time interval 502 and / or correspond to a TTI 504 (for example, 0.5 ms). A resource grid can be used to represent the 502 time slot that includes one or more resource blocks (RBs) concurrently in time (also referred to as physical RBs (PRBs)). The resource grid is divided into multiple resource elements (REs). In respects, an RB 506 includes 12 consecutive subcarriers (for example, which has 30 kHz subcarrier spacing) 508 in the frequency domain and 14 consecutive symbols 510 in the time domain, for a total of 168 REs. In aspects, a RB contains 12 consecutive subcarriers in the frequency domain and 12 consecutive symbols in the time domain, for a total of 144 REs. In aspects, a device (for example, the first vehicle 450 ') can employ a plurality of resource blocks (for example, N RBs) for side link communication (for example, a side link transmission) 509 in the D2D 400 communication. Side link communication 509 can correspond to a single TTI.
[0061] [0061] In some respects, one or more symbols 510 (for example, one or more of the first three symbols 511) of the wireless communication structure 500 can be used to communicate a sequence of listening before speaking (LBT) in a side link communication. The transmission of the side link communication through a device can be based on the LBT sequence. In aspects, one or more symbols (for example, the fourth symbol 512) of the wireless communication structure 500 can be used to communicate control information in a side link communication. In aspects, one or more symbols 510 (for example, the fifth 514 and thirteenth symbols 516) of the wireless communication structure 500 can be employed to communicate reference signals (for example, demodulation reference signals (DM-RSs) associated with ports 0 to 7) in a side link communication, as shown. In aspects, one or more symbols 510 (for example, the sixth to the twelfth symbols 518) of the wireless communication structure 500 can be used to communicate data in a side link communication. In aspects, one or more symbols 510 (for example, the fourteenth symbol 520) of the wireless communication structure 500 can be configured as a protection period to accommodate the uplink-downlink switching time (eg, return )
[0062] [0062] In aspects, for example, the side link communication structure 500 can be used for diffusion side link communication. For example, the side communication structure 500 can be employed for a broadcast side link transmission from a device (for example, the first vehicle 450 ') in the D2D communication system 400 for a plurality of other devices (for example , including the second vehicle 451 ') in the D2D 400 communication system. The side link communication structure 500 described above is exemplary and can be defined differently in the time and / or frequency domain. Additionally or alternatively, the side link communication structure 500 can be associated differently with a TTI (for example, corresponding to one or more portions of a TTI).
[0063] [0063] Figure 6 is a diagram illustrating 600 side-link communication structures exemplifying, according to various aspects of this document. In aspect, a side link communication 602 can be associated with and / or correspond to a plurality of TTIs. For example, in aspects, side link communication 602 may employ TTI clustering in which a portion of data from side link communication may comprise a plurality of TTIs (for example, a first TTI 604 and a second TTI 606). In aspect, side link communication 602 may employ a plurality of side link communication structures (for example, a first and second side link communication structure 608, 610). The first and second side link communication structure 608, 610 can be similar to the side link communication structure 500. However, the first and / or second side link communication structure 608, 610 can be adapted for grouping TTI. In aspects, one or more overload portions (for example, a LBT portion, control portion and / or protection period portion) associated with a side link communication structure cannot be used for the entire link communication structure side associated with a side link communication that employs the TTI cluster. For example, instead of being used as a protection period for the uplink-downlink switching time, the last symbol 612 of the first side link communication structure 608 can be used for data. Similarly, instead of being used for the LBT sequence (or sequences) and / or control information, the first four symbols of the second side link communication structure 610 can be used for reference signals and / or data. For example, a first symbol 614 of the second side link communication structure 610 can be used for reference signals (for example, DM-RS signals) and the next three symbols 616 can be used for data.
[0064] [0064] However, the side link communication structure 500 and the side link communication structure 600 shown in Figures 5 and 6 may not allocate the feedback communication. Thus, a device in the D2D 400 communication system (for example, the first vehicle 450 ') with the use (for example, only) of such structures 500, 600 may not be able to communicate feedback information without adversely affecting transmission and / or receiving other types of communication (for example, traffic communication). DEVICE SUPPLY TO DEVICE
[0065] [0065] In the aspects of the present methods and apparatus, a side link communication (eg side link traffic communication and / or a side link feedback communication) in the D2D 400 communication system may include at least one communication structure wireless communication that has a side link feedback symbol (for example, to allocate communication of side link feedback information). In this way, side link communication (for example, including side link traffic communication and side link feedback communication) can occur effectively, without MNOs having to allocate resources for such communication and / or without MNOs have to program such communication.
[0066] [0066] Figure 7 is a diagram illustrating a side link communication structure 700 that has at least one feedback symbol 702, in accordance with various aspects of the present disclosure. For example, a side link communication 704 can be associated with and / or correspond to a plurality of TTIs. In aspects, side link communication 704 may employ clustering of TTI, for example, in which a portion of data from side link communication may encompass a plurality of TTIs (for example, a first TTI 706, a second TTI 708 and third TTI 710). In aspect, side link communication 704 can employ a plurality of side link communication structures (for example, a first side link communication structure 700, a second side link communication structure 712 and a third communication link structure. side link 714). In aspects, the first side-link communication structure 700 can serve as a first communication structure, the second side-link communication structure 712 can serve as an intermediate communication structure, and a third side-link communication structure 714 can serve as the last communication structure of the side link communication with TTI grouping.
[0067] [0067] By using a side link communication structure that has at least one feedback symbol, such as side link communication structure 700 for side link communication by a device, a TTI structure is modified to facilitate a side link communication (for example, a unicast side link transmission, multicast and / or device diffusion) with feedback (for example, with an allocation for feedback to be transmitted by another device during TTI and / or with an allocation to a device that receives the transmission to transmit the feedback using the feedback symbol in a subsequent TTI using the TTI framework). Thus, in aspects, the present methods and apparatus facilitate the feedback for a transmission received in a non-independent way. That is, the data-related feedback is sent through a receiving device m-TTIs after the device receives the data, where m is an integer (for example, 1, 2, 3, etc.).
[0068] [0068] Although the side link communication structure 700 which has at least one feedback symbol 702 is described above in the context of TTI grouping, the present methods and apparatus include any side link communication structure which has at least one symbol feedback 702. For example, the present methods and apparatus include a wireless communication structure similar to one or more of the wireless communication structures 500, 608, 610, 712, 714 adapted to include at least one feedback symbol 702 instead of one or more existing symbol portions (or symbols) described above.
[0069] [0069] The side link communication structure that has at least one feedback symbol of the present methods and apparatus can be used for device to device communication.
[0070] [0070] In aspects, a device, such as a UE 450 or 451, can communicate a side link traffic communication by transmitting the side link traffic communication to one or more UEs. Such a device can communicate a side link feedback communication in one or more portions of at least one feedback symbol upon receipt of the side link feedback communication. Additionally or alternatively, in aspects, a device, such as a UE 450 or 451, can communicate a side link traffic communication upon receipt of the side link traffic communication from one or more UEs. Such a device can communicate a side link feedback communication in one or more portions of at least one feedback symbol by transmitting the side link feedback communication.
[0071] [0071] In aspects, for traffic (for example, data) of an incoming side-link traffic communication (for example, from the second UE 451) on TTIn, the first UE 450 can transmit feedback information on the feedback 702 associated with a subsequent TTI, TTIn + m occurring m TTIs after TTIn, where neither are integers. In aspects, m = 1. That is, the first UE 450 can transmit the feedback information in the TTI that succeeds (for example, immediately after) the TTIn. In aspects, the value for m can be based on subset B. In aspects, for example, the first UE 450 can determine or assume that a similar pattern can be employed for side link communication in subsequent TTIs. In this way, the first UE 450 can determine a subsequent TTI in which to transmit the side link feedback communication based on subset B.
[0072] [0072] In aspects, the frequency resources used to transmit the side link feedback information in the 702 feedback symbol may be based on frequency resources used for the communication of side link traffic (for example, data). In aspects, for the traffic of a side link traffic communication received by the first UE 450 (for example, from the second UE 451) using a set of frequency resources (for example, 120 subcarriers), the first UE 450 can transmit side link feedback information on feedback symbol 702 using the frequency resource set (for example, all frequency resources as used for data transmission). In aspects, for the traffic of a side link traffic communication received by the first UE 450 (for example, from the second UE 451) using a set of frequency resources (for example, 120 subcarriers), the first UE 450 can transmit side link feedback information at feedback symbol 702 using a subset of the frequency feature set.
[0073] [0073] In aspects, the first UE 450 can employ a first subcarrier spacing (for example, 15 kHz) for data traffic communication. To facilitate automatic gain control (AGC), the first UE 450 can transmit feedback information on the 702 feedback symbol using a subcarrier spacing associated with side link feedback communication which is the subcarrier spacing associated with the communication of side link traffic increased by a factor (for example, twice the subcarrier spacing used for data transmissions). For example, a subcarrier spacing associated with side link feedback communication can be an integer multiple of a subcarrier spacing associated with data traffic communication. Such side link feedback communication may include repetitive communication of side link feedback information in one or more portions of at least two feedback symbols respectively (for example, identical feedback symbol repeated two or more times) of the communication structure of side link that has at least one feedback symbol. In this way, the second UE 451 can reduce and / or avoid the adverse effects associated with inappropriate AGC (for example, saturation and / or clipping) while receiving the side link feedback communication. For example, the second UE 451 can perform AGCs based on the first of such two feedback symbols so that the second within such two feedback symbols can be successfully processed to determine the feedback information.
[0074] [0074] In aspects, for a side link traffic communication received by the first UE 450 (for example, from the second UE 451), the first UE 450 can scramble the feedback information bits before transmitting the feedback information at the 702 feedback symbol. In aspects, the first UE 450 may employ an identifier (ID) associated with the first UE 450 to scramble the feedback bits. In aspects, the ID can be assigned or configured. In this way, if the side link traffic communication transmitted by the second UE 451 is a multicast or broadcast transmission, the second UE 451 can determine the source (for example, based on the ID) of a side link feedback communication. received for the side link traffic communication transmitted previously.
[0075] [0075] In aspects, for a side link traffic communication received by the first UE 450 (for example, from the second UE 451), the first UE 450 can determine a power for a side link feedback communication (for example , a side link feedback transmission) with the second UE 451 using a predetermined value or based on a measurement performed by the first UE 450 of one or more reference signals. For example, the first UE 450 can determine a transmission power for the side link feedback information based on a received data power (for example, function of RSRP measurements performed on DMRSs) or based on the fixation of the power transmission for feedback information to a value (for example, a maximum value). The first UE 450 can use such determined power for side link feedback communication.
[0076] [0076] In aspects, for an incoming side link traffic communication (for example, from the second UE 451), the first UE 450 can transmit the feedback information communication to the second UE 451 which includes at least one among positive / negative acknowledgment information (ACK / NACK), channel quality indicator information (CQI), classification indicator information (RI), pre-coding matrix indicator information (PMI), storage status information temporary (for example, temporary storage status report) or timing information for a subsequent transmission by a source (for example, the first UE 450) of the feedback information. In aspects, such side link feedback information (for example, timing information from a subsequent side link transmission) can facilitate the coordination of side link communication between devices (for example, the first UE 450, the second UE 451 and the third UE 452) in the D2D 400 communication system since, in aspects, D2D communication (e.g., side link communication) between or through vehicles 450 ', 451', 452 'is not programmed by MNOs.
[0077] [0077] Figure 8 is a flow chart of a method for wireless communication, according to several aspects of the present disclosure. Method 800 steps can be performed by a computing device (for example, a processor, processing circuit and / or other suitable component) of a wireless communication device, such as UEs 104, 104 ', 350, 450 and 451. As illustrated, the 800 method of wireless communication includes a number of steps listed, but the 800 method modalities may include additional steps before, after, and between the steps listed. In some embodiments, one or more of the steps listed can be omitted or performed in a different order.
[0078] [0078] In step 810, method 800 includes communicating a side link traffic communication using a side link communication structure. In step 820, method 800 includes communicating an allocation for side link feedback using at least one feedback link from the side link communication structure. In some respects, in step 830, method 800 includes communicating, via a first wireless communication device, a side link feedback communication using at least one feedback symbol from the side link communication structure, where side link feedback communication is associated with side link traffic communication. In aspect, the side link feedback can be included in one or more portions of at least one feedback symbol. In this way, for example, the present methods and apparatus can facilitate the transmission of feedback for NR side link communication. In aspects, the feedback is transmitted by a device in a non-independent manner (for example, not within the same TTI in which data is received by such a device). In aspects, the present methods and apparatus can be used in a NR V2X system or context.
[0079] [0079] In aspects, side link traffic communication uses at least one of the side link communication structures. In aspects, the communication of a side link traffic communication includes communicating a side link traffic communication in a first set of one or more transmission time slots (TTIs), and a subset of the first set of one or more TTIs corresponds respectively to one or more side link communication structures, each of which has at least one feedback symbol.

In aspects, the communication, through the first wireless communication device, of the side link feedback communication includes communicating, through the first wireless communication device, the side link feedback communication in a TTI that succeeds the first set of one or more TTIs.
[0081] [0081] In aspects, the frequency resources used to communicate the side link feedback communication are based on frequency resources used to communicate the side link traffic communication. In such aspects, the frequency resources used to communicate side link feedback communication correspond to all frequency resources used to communicate side link traffic communication. In such aspects, the frequency resources used to communicate the side link feedback communication are a subset of the frequency resources used to communicate the side link traffic communication. In such additional aspects, the subset of the frequency resources includes a first portion of the frequency resources used to communicate the communication of side link traffic. In such additional aspects, the subset of the frequency resources is based on the measurement, by means of the first wireless communication device, of at least one among the quality, power or signal strength associated with the communication of the side link traffic communication in the frequency resources.
[0082] [0082] In aspects, a subcarrier spacing associated with side link feedback communication is an integer multiple of a subcarrier spacing associated with side link data communication, and the communication of the side link feedback communication includes communicating repeatedly. side link feedback information in one or more portions of at least two feedback symbols respectively from the side link communication structure that has at least one feedback symbol.
[0083] [0083] In aspects, the communication of side link traffic includes a unicast communication, a multicast communication or a broadcast communication.

In aspects, the first wireless communication device is user equipment, and the communication of the side link feedback communication includes receiving the side link feedback communication. In aspects, the side link communication can be an NR side link communication.

[0086] [0086] Figure 9 is a diagram 900 illustrating an example of a hardware deployment for a 902 wireless communication device employing a 904 processing system, in accordance with various aspects of the present disclosure. In aspects, the apparatus 902 for wireless communication may be an UE 104, 104 ', 350, 450, 451, 452, for example. The 904 processing system can be deployed with a bus architecture, generally represented by the 906 bus. The 906 bus can include numerous interlaced buses and bridges that depend on the specific application of the 904 processing system and the general design restrictions. In aspects, apparatus 902 may include a side link traffic communication component 910 that communicates (e.g., transmits and / or receives) side link traffic communication using a side link communication structure.
[0087] [0087] In aspects, apparatus 902 may include an allocation for the side link feedback communication component 912 that communicates (e.g., transmits and / or receives) an allocation for side link feedback using at least one feedback symbol of the side link communication structure. In one aspect, the allocation for the side link feedback communication component 912 can be configured to communicate at least one feedback symbol that allocates the communication of feedback information in the side link traffic communication (for example, by employing processing techniques associated with drilling and / or fee matching).
[0088] [0088] In aspects, the apparatus 902 may include a side link feedback communication component 914 that communicates (e.g., transmits and / or receives) a side link feedback communication with the use of at least one feedback symbol of the side link communication structure, in which the side link feedback communication is associated with the side link traffic communication.
