abstract |
Embodiments provide an apparatus, wherein the apparatus comprises: - a plurality of Hybrid ARQ, HARQ, entities, each of the plurality of HARQ entities configured to operate a HARQ process associated with one of a plurality of HARQ behaviors, the plurality of HARQ behaviors being different, and/or - a Hybrid ARQ, HARQ, entity configured to operate a plurality of HARQ processes, each HARQ processes associated with one of a plurality of HARQ behaviors, the plurality of HARQ behaviors being different, wherein the apparatus is configured to receive a control information [e.g. PDCCH uplink grant or PSCCH grant] from a transceiver in a wireless communication system, the control information transmitted over a radio channel [e.g., PDCCH, PSCCH] of the wireless communication system, the control information comprising a Hybrid ARQ, HARQ, identifier [e.g., HARQ process number] identifying one HARQ behavior out of the plurality of HARQ behaviors or one HARQ process out of the plurality of HARQ processes, the one HARQ process associated with a HARQ behavior. |
