Abstract:
A bandwidth efficient way to improve reliability without introducing additional latency is provided for Ultra-Reliable and Low Latency Communications (URLLC) service in  5 G NR. In particular, using rateless fountain codes in conjunction with packet duplication for split bearers at the Packet Data Convergence Protocol (PDCP) layer increases the reliability of transmission without the need for retransmissions, and with a lower bandwidth requirement compared to traditional packet duplication

Claim (Index 17):
A receiver device, comprising:\n a processor; and a memory that stores executable instructions that, when executed by the processor, facilitate performance of operations, comprising:\n receiving first encoded packets associated with a split bearer, wherein the first encoded packets are received from respective relay devices; \n verifying an integrity of the first encoded packets; \n determining that the first encoded packets are associated with a radio access bearer satisfying a defined criterion relating to latency and reliability; and \n decoding the first encoded packets using a rateless fountain code, resulting in a decoded packet, and wherein the first encoded packets are encoded with the rateless fountain code that facilitates reconstructing the decoded packet from second encoded packets, and wherein a first number of bits associated with the second encoded packets is equal to or greater than a second number of bits associated with a packet associated with the radio access bearer.
