This uplink resource indicator may therefore override an uplink resource indicator indicated by activation downlink control information (DCI) that was provided in the PDCCH payload for activation of DL-SPS.
  • DCI downlink control information
  • the activation DCI also comprises a Physical Uplink Control Channel (PUCCH) resource indicator that also applies to the uplink resource indicator as provided in the GC-PDCCH.
  • PUCCH Physical Uplink Control Channel
  • the transmission of the GC-PDCCH payload comprising the uplink resource indicator is triggered if a HARQ-ACK is not transmitted or will not be transmitted.
  • the HARQ-ACK might not be transmitted if a resource allocated for HARQ-ACK by the activation DCI falls, at least partially, outside a Channel Occupancy Time (COT) .

  • the UE 110 checks whether or not the GC-PDCCH payload comprises a new K1 value. If yes then, at block 316, the HARQ-ACK is transmitted in PUCCH indicated by the new K1 value. The new K1 value is therefore used to override any K1 value provided in the activation DCI. The UE 110 may apply the new LBT type and LBT parameters to check channel availability before transmission of the HARQ-ACK via the PUCCH.
  • the UE 110 determines that no new K1 value has been received then at block 318 the UE 110 checks whether or not an expected occasion for HARQ-ACK transmission falls within UL symbols.

  • SFI Slot Format Indicator
  • the occasion for the transmission could be considered to fall within a UL symbol if the expected occasion is dedicated for UL transmission or if the occasion comprises a semi-static flexible symbol or slot that could be used for either UL or DL as needed.
  • the HARQ-ACK can be transmitted at that occasion. If it is determined that the expected occasion for HARQ-ACK transmission does not fall within UL symbols then, at block 322, the UE 110 postpones the HARQ-ACK by storing it for transmission in a later slot. At block 324 the UE 110 determines an available UL slot or UL symbol.
  • Information relating to the available UL slots or UL symbols may be provided via a GC-PDCCH. For example, by means of SFI in GC-PDCCH payload.

  • the gNB 120 when it is determined that the HARQ-ACK has not been transmitted or will not be transmitted the gNB 120 provides a new K1 value and requests the UE 110 to initiate a COT itself and to report the HAR-ACK in the UE-initiated COT 502.

  • the UL slot 202 could be selected randomly or pseudo randomly from the available UL slots 202 in the subsequent COT 200. In other examples the UE 110 selects the first available UL slot 202 in the subsequent COT 200. If there are multiple UL slots 202 within the COT 200 then there could be a Radio Resource Control (RRC) parameter or a hashing function among one or more uplink resources indicated in the GC-PDDCH payload that determines which of the UL slots 202 is selected by the UE 110.
  • RRC Radio Resource Control
  • examples of the disclosure provide an uplink resource indicator such as a K1 value in a GC-PDCCH payload.
