Google patents method to prioritize urgent data in wireless transmissions

This filing describes a way for a phone or device to send data to a network by splitting the available space into sections. It allows the device to move urgent information to the front of the line, even if it was originally scheduled behind less important data.

Why it mattersThis could help ensure that time-sensitive tasks, like video calls or emergency alerts, are sent quickly without waiting for other background files to finish uploading.

In the filing’s own words

This disclosure provides systems, devices, apparatus, and methods, including computer programs encoded on storage media, for scheduling a delay sensitive data transmission. A UE ( 102) receives (310 a /310 b), from a network entity ( 104), an uplink grant for a MAC PDU. The MAC PDU includes a first allocation of logical channel priority with PBR data and a second allocation of remaining resources for residual data. The UE ( 102) transmits ( 316), to the network entity ( 104), the MAC PDU ( 316) with the second allocation of the remaining resources prioritizing urgent data in a logical channel buffer over the logical channel priority.

What exactly they claim (claim 1)

1. A method of wireless communication at a user equipment, (UE) comprising: receiving from a network entity an uplink grant to transmit a medium access control (MAC) protocol data unit (PDU), the MAC PDU including a second allocation of resources associated with urgent data prioritization and a third allocation of remaining resources for residual data; and transmitting, to the network entity, the MAC PDU with the second allocation of resources prioritizing urgent data in a logical channel buffer over a logical channel priority.
