The present invention relates to a method of transmitting a Medium Access Control (MAC) Protocol Data Unit (PDU) by a user equipment (UE) in a wireless communication system. Especially, the method includes the steps of generating a first MAC PDU including at least one MAC Control Element (CE) and a first data; receiving an uplink grant for transmitting a second data, wherein a transmission time of the first data overlaps with a transmission time of the second data, and wherein a priority of the second data is higher than a priority of the first data; generating a second MAC PDU including the at least one MAC CE and the second data; and transmitting the second MAC PDU.

The present disclosure relates to a method and apparatus for scheduling PUSCH or PDSCH. One embodiment of the subject disclosure provides a method for scheduling Physical Uplink Shared Channel (PUSCH), comprising: receiving a signal scheduling a first number of PUSCHs on a second number of frequency resources, wherein the first number of PUSCHs are scheduled with same time domain resource; and transmitting one or more PUSCHs of the first number of PUSCHs on the second number of frequency resources.

A wireless device may receive radio resource control messages indicating, among other things, a bandwidth part (BWP) of a cell, having at least first resource blocks (RBs) and second RBs; common frequency resources, including at least the first RBs of the BWP, associated with a multicast and broadcast service (MBS) configured for wireless devices comprising the wireless device; and a radio network temporary identifier (RNTI) associated with the MBS. The wireless device may also receive a group common downlink control information (DCI) addressed to the RNTI via the common frequency resources of the BWP. In an embodiment, the group common DCI may indicate a multicast transmission of a transport block to the wireless device. The wireless device may also start a BWP inactivity timer of the cell in response to receiving the group common DCI.

Methods and apparatuses for signal transmission and reception are provided for a wireless communication system. Information for configuring a plurality of physical uplink control channel (PUCCH) resources is transmitted to a terminal. Downlink control information (DCI) is transmitted to the terminal on a physical downlink control channel (PDCCH). The DCI includes a resource indicator for indicating a PUCCH resource among the plurality of PUCCH resources. Uplink control information (UCI) is received from the terminal on the PUCCH resource indicated by the resource indicator.

A method of operating a communications device in a wireless communications network is provided. The method comprises determining that the communications device should transmit at least two uplink signals to the wireless communications network, wherein the uplink signals are each to be transmitted in a set of uplink resources of a wireless access interface, determining that the set of uplink radio resources in which a first of the uplink signals should be transmitted at least partially overlaps the set of uplink radio resources in which a second of the uplink signals should be transmitted, wherein the first uplink signal has a different one of a plurality of physical layer priority levels to the second uplink signal, and detecting an indication of whether the first uplink signal and the second uplink signal should be multiplexed.

According to an example embodiment, an example method may include determining, by a network node in a wireless network, whether a size of a data packet is greater than a threshold size; transmitting, by the network node, the data packet via a frequency interlace if the size of the data packet is less than or equal to the threshold size; transmitting, by the network node, the data packet via contiguous wideband frequency resources if the size of the data packet is greater than the threshold size.

A number of repetitions equal to a first number and a number of spatial relations equal to a second number can be determined (210) to transmit an uplink channel with a plurality of uplink channel repetitions and with a plurality of spatial relations. A total number of the plurality of uplink channel repetitions can be the first number of repetitions and a total number of the plurality of spatial relations can be the second number of spatial relations. The plurality of spatial relations for transmission of the plurality of uplink channel repetitions can be determined (220) based on a plurality of quasi-co-location assumptions associated with downlink reception. The plurality of uplink channel repetitions can be transmitted (230) based on the determined plurality of spatial relations.

A communications device is provided. The communications device (which is a receiving communications device) comprises a transceiver configured to receive signals from and/or to transmit signals to one or more of a plurality of other communications devices within sidelink communications resources of a plurality of resource pool instances of a sidelink interface, each of the resource pool instances being arranged in time in accordance with a resource pool periodicity, the resource pool being formed of a plurality of time-divided slots and a plurality of frequency-divided regions, and a controller. The controller is configured in combination with the transceiver to exchange control signaling with a first transmitting communications device of the plurality of other communications devices. Here, the control signaling comprises an indication of a current power saving status of the receiving communications device.
