Abstract
A method, an apparatus, and a processor-readable storage medium for wireless communication are provided. In an aspect, the apparatus is a subordinate entity that receives an indication of a resource allocated for an uplink transmission. The subordinate entity also receives a condition associated with the resource. The subordinate entity evaluates whether the condition is satisfied and determines whether to transmit a packet using the resource based on the condition being satisfied. In another aspect, the apparatus is a scheduling entity that generates an indication of a resource allocated for an uplink transmission. The resource is associated with a condition that limits access to the resource. The scheduling entity transmits the indication and the condition to a subordinate entity and receives a packet from the subordinate entity via the resource based on the condition being satisfied.
