Abstract

Divers aspects de la présente divulgation portent d'une manière générale sur la communication sans fil. Selon certains aspects, un équipement utilisateur (UE) peut effectuer, vers une première station de base et par l'intermédiaire d'une première chaîne radiofréquence (RF), au moins une partie d'une première transmission en liaison montante associée à une première priorité. L'UE peut recevoir, en provenance de la première station de base ou d'une seconde station de base et pendant la première transmission en liaison montante, une attribution d'un canal physique de commande de liaison descendante (PDCCH) pour une seconde transmission en liaison montante associée à une seconde priorité supérieure à la première priorité. L'UE peut annuler une partie restante de la première transmission en liaison montante sur la base, au moins en partie, de la réception de l'attribution d'un PDCCH pour la seconde transmission en liaison montante. L'UE peut effectuer, vers la première station de base ou la seconde station de base et par l'intermédiaire d'une seconde chaîne RF, la seconde transmission en liaison montante. De nombreux autres aspects sont décrits.
