US Patent 10447426 Scheduling based on end-to-end delay bound

The disclosure relates in some aspects to scheduling data transmissions based on an end-to-end delay bound. In some aspects, timing information is transmitted in conjunction with data over a given hop, where the timing information is based on an end-to-end delay bound for the data transmission (e.g., according to a latency requirement). For example, the timing information may indicate the time remaining for transmission of a response to the data or the deadline for completing the response. A scheduler that receives the timing information may schedule another transmission (e.g., a response) based on the timing information.
