The disclosure relates to a 5G or 6G communication system for supporting a higher data transmission rate. The method performed by a user equipment (UE) in a wireless communication system is provided. The method comprises receiving, from a base station (BS), a radio resource control (RRC) message including configuration information related to a physical uplink shared channel (PUSCH) repetition transmission, identifying a frequency resource for the PUSCH repetition transmission based on the configuration information, and information about at least one scheduled resource for the UE, and transmitting, to the BS, based on the frequency resource, a data via a PUSCH.

A resource unit combination indication method and a communication apparatus are provided. The resource unit combination indication method includes: A transmit end generates a physical layer protocol data unit (PPDU), and sends the PPDU. The PPDU includes a resource unit allocation subfield. The resource unit allocation subfield indicates a multi-resource unit (MRU) to which a 242-tone resource unit (RU) corresponding to the resource unit allocation subfield belongs, and further indicates a quantity of user fields corresponding to the resource unit allocation subfield. According to the application, one or more users may be indicated to use a plurality of contiguous or noncontiguous RUs for data transmission, to improve RU allocation flexibility of a system and spectrum utilization of the system.

Systems and methods are disclosed herein for activation of two or more Transmission Configuration Indication (TCL) states for a Physical Downlink Control Channel (PDCCH) in one or more Control Resource Sets (CORESETs) in a cellular communications system. In one embodiment, a method performed by a wireless communication device for activation of multiple TCI states for a PDCCH in one or more CORESETs in a cellular communications system comprises receiving, from a network node, signaling that activates NTCI TCI states for one or more CORESETs, wherein NTCI>1. In this manner, activation of two or more TCI states for PDCCH in one or more CORESETs is enabled.

A method of wireless communication, by a user equipment (UE), includes receiving, from a base station, a medium access control-control element (MAC-CE) including an offset change command. The method also includes adjusting an offset within a periodic pattern based on the offset change command. A method of wireless communication, by a base station, includes detecting a misalignment between an arrival time of data relative to a periodic pattern. The method also includes transmitting, to a user equipment (UE), a medium access control-control element (MAC-CE) including an offset change command to adjust an offset within the periodic pattern.

A method and apparatus for data transfer in RRC_INACTIVE state is provided. Method for data transfer in RRC_INACTIVE state includes receiving a RRCRelease, determining a radio bearer configured for second resume procedure based on the first information for second resume procedure, receiving from the base station a system information, initiating second resume procedure, restoring configuration of the radio bearer configured for second resume procedure stored in UE Inactive AS context, re-establishing PDCP entity of the radio bearer configured for second resume procedure, resuming the radio bearer configured for second resume procedure and transmitting to the base station a RRCResumeRequest.

An operation method of a terminal in a communication system may comprise: in response to occurrence of uplink (UL) data, transmitting a scheduling request (SR) for the UL data to a base station; performing a UL timing alignment procedure with the base station when a UL timing between the terminal and the base station is not synchronized; receiving a UL grant for the UL data from the base station; and transmitting the UL data to the base station using resources indicated by the UL grant.
