Abstract

A user equipment (UE) configured for operation in a fifth generation (5G) new radio (NR) system (5GS) (5G NR) schedules multiple physical downlink shared channels (PDSCHs) with a multiple transmission time interval (TTI) DCI and generates a type-1 HARQ-ACK codebook for candidate PDSCH reception occasions corresponding to uplink slots. The UE determines a set of downlink (DL) slots for the multiple scheduled PDSCHs and a set of start and length indicator values ​​(SLIVs) for the DL slots based on a configured slot timing value (K1) and a configured time domain resource allocation (TDRA) table.

[0131] In the case of multi-PDSCH scheduling, PDCCH and Scheduled The timing relationship between the PDSCH and schedule In a cell where a UE is scheduled using a second PDCCH, a first PDSCH is scheduled by the first PDCCH. schedule The PDCCH starts earlier than the end of the last PDSCH to be transmitted and uses the first PDCCH. schedule The first PDSCH is transmitted by the second PDCCH. schedule It can be defined that the PDSCH is not expected to start earlier than the end of the last PDSCH received. In this way, the first DCI scheduleThe PDSCH(s) to be transmitted are determined by the second DCI. schedule The PDSCH may not be interleaved with the PDSCH(s) to be transmitted.

[0132] 12 shows an example of valid and invalid multi-PDSCH scheduling with two PDCCHs. Based on the above, timing relationship 1202 is considered valid scheduling, and timing relationship 1204 is invalid scheduling. K1 In the set of Value in
