Abstract:
Aspects of the present disclosure provide methods, apparatuses, and embodiments for transmitting time critical uplink (UL) control information (e.g., beam failure indication, buffer status report, and scheduling request) without first obtaining UL timing synchronization with a network. Therefore, UL communication latency may be reduced by removing the signaling overhead involved in performing a full random access procedure to obtain UL synchronization prior to UL transmission.

Claim (Index 1):
A method of wireless communication operable at a user equipment (UE), comprising:\n receiving, from a base station, a resource configuration that allocates resources for sync-less uplink (UL) transmission; transmitting, to the base station, uplink control information (UCI) utilizing the resources regardless of UL timing synchronization between the base station and the UE; receiving a base station response corresponding to the UCI from the base station; and transmitting UL data to the base station based on the base station response.
