For multiplexing control information in a physical uplink data channel, a user equipment (UE) includes receiving a configuration for a first set of values and receiving a downlink control information (DCI) format scheduling a transmission of a physical uplink shared data channel (PUSCH) over a set of resource elements (REs) and including a field providing an index. The method further includes determining a first value from the first set of values based on the index, determining a first subset of REs from the set of REs, for multiplexing first uplink control information (UCI), based on the first value, and transmitting the first UCI in the PUSCH.

Methods and apparatus for communicating and utilizing persistent allocation of resources are described herein. A base station may allocate persistent resources to a client station, and may associate the client station or persistent resource allocation with a particular shared NACK channel. The base station may monitor the NACK channel for a NACK indicating a map error. The base station may monitor the resource allocation to implicitly determine a map error. The base station may resend one or more persistent resource allocation information elements in response to the NACK or implicit error determination. A client station having a persistent resource allocation may monitor persistent resource allocation information elements in map messages and/or may indicate failure to receive a persistent resource allocation information element in a NACK message on a shared NACK channel.

A wireless device receives a radio resource control (RRC) message that includes configuration parameters for scheduling a plurality of physical uplink shared channels (PUSCHs) via a downlink control information (DCI). In an embodiment, the configuration parameters may include an indication enabling a dynamic determination of a PUSCH of the plurality of PUSCHs for multiplexing an uplink control information (UCI). In an additional embodiment, the UCI may overlap with a first PUSCH of the plurality of PUSCHs. The wireless device may transmit the UCI via a second PUSCH of the plurality of PUSCHs in response to a failed listen-before-talk (LBT) procedure for the first PUSCH.

The present disclosure provides a method for transmitting uplink control information, a method for receiving uplink control information, a method for configuring a downlink HARQ feedback function, a terminal and a base station. The method for transmitting uplink control information comprises: transmitting uplink control information to a base station, wherein the uplink control information comprises at least one of decoding statistical information for downlink transmission, suggestion information for downlink scheduling, or channel quality related information.

A method for multicast communication. The method which may be performed by a terminal device comprises receiving a downlink control channel from a network node. The downlink control channel may be associated with a traffic of the terminal device. The method further comprises determining an uplink resource to transmit feedback for the traffic to the network node, according to the association between the downlink control channel and the traffic. A hybrid automatic repeat request feedback may be implemented efficiently and flexibly for different traffic such as multicast and unicast traffic.

In 5G/New Radio (NR), sidelink communication refers to a channel for communications directly between devices, e.g., user equipment (UEs), without use of traditional uplink or downlink communication channels. Sidelink Control Information (SCI) is separated into two stages (i.e., SCI stage 1 and SCI stage 2) before being transmitted to configure a user device. A method for configuring sidelink communications for a wireless device includes: obtaining SCI Stage 2 payload information; attaching and distributing cyclic redundancy check (CRC) information to the payload information; performing encoding and rate matching (RM) on the payload information; scrambling the encoded and rate matched payload information; performing modulation on the scrambled payload information; determining a resource mapping for the modulated payload information, wherein the modulated payload information is aggregated across two or more slots (e.g., using different processing operations for at least two slots); and transmitting the modulated payload information according to the determined resource mapping.

Systems and methods for packet payload mapping for robust transmission of data are described. For example, methods may include receiving, using a network interface, packets that each respectively include a primary frame and one or more preceding frames from the sequence of frames of data that are separated from the primary frame in the sequence of frames by a respective multiple of a stride parameter; storing the frames of the packets in a buffer with entries that each hold the primary frame and the one or more preceding frames of a packet; reading a first frame from the buffer as the primary frame from one of the entries; determining that a packet with a primary frame that is a next frame in the sequence has been lost; and, responsive to the determination, reading the next frame from the buffer as a preceding frame from one of the entries.

A base station device includes: a storage that stores a group indicating unit data subject to retransmission out of predetermined number of unit data included in transmission data to be transmitted to a terminal device, and identification information to identify the group, in an associated manner; a receiver that receives, from the terminal device, identification information corresponding to transmission data transmitted to the terminal device; a communication controller that refers to the storage based on the received identification information, and that determines retransmission of unit data included in a group corresponding to the received identification information out of the transmission data; and a transmitter that transmits unit data included in the group determined to be retransmitted by the communication controller, to the terminal device.

Certain aspects of the present disclosure provide techniques for wireless communication. The techniques include a method wireless communication by a user equipment including receiving a first physical downlink control channel (PDCCH) from a first transmission reception point (TRP) and a second PDCCH from a second TRP, wherein the first PDCCH and the second PDCCH include the same downlink control information (DCI), selecting a physical uplink control channel (PUCCH) resource for transmitting hybrid automatic repeated request acknowledgment (HARQ-ACK) feedback based on one of the first PDCCH or the second PDCCH, and transmitting a PUCCH that includes the HARQ-ACK feedback using the selected PUCCH resource.

The present disclosure relates to an electronic device, a communication method and a storage medium in a wireless communication system. There is provided an electronic device for a transmitter, comprising a processing circuitry configured to: perform an initial transmission and blind transmissions of a transport block to a receiver by a configured Hybrid Automatic Repeat reQuest (HARQ) process, the blind transmissions being planned to be performed within a predetermined time window after the initial transmission; perform detection for a HARQ feedback from the receiver, the HARQ feedback indicating whether decoding for the transport block at the receiver is successful or not; and control to cancel or continue the blind transmissions based on a result of the detection.
