My friend:<\/em> Hi Ibrahim, I have a question for you.<\/p>\n

Me:<\/em> Please, go ahead.<\/p>\n

My friend:<\/em> While reading about the min. scheduling unit in 5G which is the slot, then \u2026<\/p>\n

Me (Interrupting him):<\/em> Excuse me, what is the min scheduling unit in 5G?<\/p>\n

My friend:<\/em> It is the slot, right?<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Me:<\/em> No, the min. scheduling unit in 5G is called the mini-slot which is a new concept in 5G which was not available for 4G?<\/p>\n

My Friend:<\/em> So, what is mini-slot?<\/p>\n

Me:<\/em> It is the minimum scheduling unit used in 5G NR, it occupies 2, 4 or 7 OFDM symbols (regardless of numerology), so a user can be allocated a mini-slot which is less than the slot (14 symbols) and it is suitable for low latency communication. It enables what is called non-slot based scheduling that will have higher priority than normal eMBB user, so it can pre-empt other eMBB transmissions as it has requirements for lower latency.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

My friend:<\/em> Thanks a lot. You make it very simple.<\/p>\n

Please find below our last article and share this information to spread it and make sure it is clear for everyone.<\/p>\n
