Some exemplary embodiments relate to a
user equipment (UE), a scheduling device and respective methods. For example, the UE comprises a
transceiver which, in operation, receives a resource configuration indicating periodic downlink resources, wherein each downlink resource is associated with a respective first resource of a physical uplink
control channel (PUCCH) for transmission of an
acknowledgement report, receives a resource indicator for determining a second resource for transmission of the
acknowledgement report, and receives data via one of the downlink resources. The UE, for example, further comprises circuitry which, in operation, determines the second resource, using the resource indicator, and determines, from among the first resource associated with the one of the downlink resources and the second resource, the resource to be used for transmission of the acknowledgment report, wherein the
transceiver, in operation, transmits the
acknowledgement report via the resource determined by the circuitry.
