20210307021 | FBE DATA TRANSMISSION METHOD, APPARATUS, AND STORAGE MEDIUM - Aspects of the disclosure can provide a data transmission method implemented by a second access network device that can include receiving transmission status indication information sent by a first access network device. The transmission status indication information includes beam occupation information and cycle occupation information. The method can further include determining a second beam having a mutually exclusive interference relationship with the first beam, determining, when the second access network device needs to perform transmission of second data with a second terminal by using the second beam, a fixed cycle occupied by the second data based on the fixed cycle occupied by the first data, and performing transmission of the second data with the second terminal in the fixed cycle occupied by the second data. | 2021-09-30 |
20210307022 | SELECTIVE DETECTION OF FEEDBACK FOR RESOURCE SELECTION - Aspects relate to resource selection by a first device within a wireless communication network. A second device may reserve resources for a first transmission and a retransmission to at least one third device over a direct link. If the strength of a signal received from the second device is greater than a threshold, the first device may detect feedback from the at least one third device to determine whether there will be a retransmission. If there will not be a retransmission, the first device may add to a candidate set at least one resource that overlaps with at least one of the resources previously reserved for the retransmission. If the signal strength is less than a threshold, the first device may, without detecting the feedback, add to a candidate set of resources at least one resource that overlaps with at least one of the resources previously reserved for the retransmission. | 2021-09-30 |
