Abstract:
A method embodiment includes implementing, by a base station (BS), a grant-free uplink transmission scheme. The grant-free uplink transmission scheme defines a first contention transmission unit (CTU) access region in a time-frequency domain, defines a plurality of CTUs, defines a default CTU mapping scheme by mapping at least some of the plurality of CTUs to the first CTU access region, and defines a default user equipment (UE) mapping scheme by defining rules for mapping a plurality of UEs to the plurality of CTUs.

Claim (Index 3):
The method of  claim 1  further comprising:\n if no ACK signal associated with the first uplink transmission is received from the BS, determining that a number of failed decodings of the information does not exceed a threshold and sending, to the BS, a second uplink transmission to the BS of the information without using a request/grant mechanism to obtain an allocation of resources from the BS, wherein the second uplink transmission is sent using a different CTU than the first uplink transmission, and wherein the second uplink transmission carries the same information as the first uplink transmission.
