Disclosed are a method and apparatus for repeatedly transmitting an uplink in a wireless communication system. A method by which a terminal repeatedly transmits a physical uplink shared channel (PUSCH), according to an embodiment of the present disclosure, comprises the steps of: receiving configuration information related to repeated transmission of the PUSCH; receiving downlink control information (DCI) for scheduling of the PUSCH; and repeatedly transmitting the PUSCH N times (an integer, greater than 1, of N) on the basis of the configuration information and the DCI. The PUSCH transmitted N times is circularly and sequentially mapped to a plurality of transmission configuration indicator (TCI) states in an ascending order, may be grouped into M PUSCH groups (an integer, greater than 1, of N) for each PUSCH to which the same TCI is mapped, and frequency hopping may be individually applied to the M PUSCH groups.

This application provides a DAI counting method, a DAI counting control method, a terminal, and a network device. The method includes: in a case that physical downlink control channel PDCCH repetition is configured, incrementing a DAI count at a reference PDCCH monitoring occasion.

This application discloses an information feedback method, a resource scheduling method, a terminal, and a network device. The information feedback method includes: performing HARQ-ACK feedback for multicast downlink transmission and unicast downlink transmission in one time unit.

A downlink reception triggering method, a terminal, and a network-side device are provided. A method on a terminal side includes transmitting a first uplink signal, where the first uplink signal is used to trigger a first downlink reception.

A method for transmitting automatic repeat request acknowledgement feedback information supporting a multicast service and an apparatus are provided. The method includes: receiving N pieces of first downlink control information (DCI) and M pieces of second DCI in at least one first time unit, where the first DCI is a first-type DCI, the second DCI is a second-type DCI. Each piece of first DCI includes a first downlink assignment index (DAI), and the first DAI includes a first counter downlink assignment index (C-DAI) that indicates an accumulative quantity of pieces of first-type DCI for scheduling transmission of a downlink data channel. Each piece of second DCI includes a second DAI, and the second DAI includes a second C-DAI that indicates an accumulative quantity of pieces of second-type DCI for scheduling transmission of a downlink data channel.

A terminal according to one embodiment of the present invention determines and reports a specific codebook-based HARQ-ACK on the basis of the result of receiving a plurality of PDSCHs, and, on the basis of a first-type codebook-based HARQ-ACK having been set for scheduling of the plurality of PDSCHs, the terminal can perform first start symbol and length indicator value (SLIV) pruning on the basis of a set of the SLIVs of PDSCHs, which can be potentially scheduled on each slot of a bundling window determined on the basis of a plurality of candidate PDSCH-to-HARQ feedback timing values, and perform second SLIV pruning on the basis of a set of the SLIVs of PDSCHs, which can be potentially scheduled even on at least one slot that does not belong to the bundling window.

A method performed by a UE is provided. The method includes receiving a first DCI format for scheduling at least one HARQ-ACK codebook in at least one first PUCCH in at least one first slot; receiving a second DCI format in a second slot, the second DCI format (i) for scheduling a retransmission of the HARQ-ACK codebook in a second PUCCH and (ii) indicating a first slot offset; and transmitting the first HARQ-ACK codebook scheduled in one of the at least one first slot via the second PUCCH. If the first slot offset is a positive value, the first slot is determined by counting backward a number of slots indicated by the first slot offset from the second slot. If the first slot offset is a negative value, the first slot is determined by counting forward the number of slots indicated by the first slot offset from the second slot.

A method related to physical uplink control channel (PUCCH) cell switching and a user equipment (UE) are provided. The method includes: receiving a radio resource control (RRC) message from a base station; determining a PUCCH cell from the first cell and the second cell according to at least one PUCCH cell pattern; and transmitting the PUCCH transmission on the PUCCH cell during the time resource units. The RRC message includes at least one PUCCH cell pattern associated with multiple cell indexes and a first subcarrier spacing (SCS) associated with a first cell and a second SCS associated with a second cell. Each cell index corresponds to a cell, and the PUCCH cell pattern indicates which cell corresponds to one time resource unit used for PUCCH transmission.

Various aspects of the present disclosure generally relate to wireless communication. In some aspects, a user equipment (UE) may receive an indication of a first set of resources associated with a semi-persistent scheduling (SPS) acknowledgement/negative acknowledgement (A/N) feedback message, wherein the SPS A/N feedback message is deferred to a second set of resources by the UE. The UE may receive an indication of a third set of resources associated with a dynamic A/N feedback message, wherein the second set of resources and the third set of resources are associated with a collision. The UE may perform an action based on the second set of resources and the third set of resources being associated with the collision. The UE may transmit at least one of the SPS A/N feedback message or the dynamic A/N feedback message based on performing the action. Numerous other aspects are described.

Prompt and secure data communication paring concepts are described. In one example, a method for data communications includes a client device receiving an advertising packet from a peripheral device, comparing a signal strength indicator for the advertising packet to a threshold, generating a session key based on the comparing, and transmitting the session key to the peripheral device. The method also includes communicating and acknowledging one or more data chunks between the devices through a secure communications channel. The concepts are different that traditional pairing techniques for short-range, low-power wireless data communications in that secure communications channels can be achieved automatically, relatively more quickly, and repeatedly without the need for user intervention. The secure communications channels can be established and reestablished without the need for traditional pairing techniques.
