Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

A user equipment (UE) is described. Higher layer circuitry is configured to receive information to configure a physical uplink shared channel (PUSCH) repetition. Receiving circuitry is configured to receive downlink control information (DCI) on a physical downlink control channel (PDCCH). Transmitting circuitry is configured to transmit a PUSCH. A redundancy version field in the DCI indicates a pattern of redundancy versions for each repetition. A sounding reference signal index (SRI) field indicates a pattern of sounding reference signal indexes for each repetition.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

The invention claimed is: 1 . A user equipment (UE) comprising: higher layer circuitry configured to receive information to configure a physical uplink shared channel (PUSCH) repetition; receiving circuitry configured to receive downlink control information (DCI) on a physical downlink control channel (PDCCH); and transmitting circuitry configured to transmit a PUSCH, wherein a redundancy version field in the DCI indicates a pattern of redundancy versions for each repetition, a sounding reference signal index (SRI) field in the DCI indicates a pattern of sounding reference signal indexes for each repetition, a spatial domain filter, associated with each sounding reference signal index of the sounding reference signal indexes, is applied to each repetition, and the pattern of redundancy versions is independently applied to transmission occasions for the PUSCH corresponding to a same sounding reference signal index. 2 . A base station apparatus comprising: higher layer circuitry configured to transmit information to configure a physical uplink shared channel (PUSCH) repetition; transmitting circuitry configured to transmit downlink control information (DCI) on a physical downlink control channel (PDCCH); and receiving circuitry configured to receive a PUSCH, wherein a redundancy version field in the DCI indicates a pattern of redundancy versions for each repetition, a sounding reference signal index (SRI) field in the DCI indicates a pattern of sounding reference signal indexes for each repetition, a spatial domain filter, associated with each sounding reference signal index of the sounding reference signal indexes, is applied to each repetition, and the pattern of redundancy versions is independently applied to transmission occasions for the PUSCH corresponding to a same sounding reference signal index. 3 . A communication method of a user equipment (UE) comprising: receiving information to configure a physical uplink shared channel (PUSCH) repetition; receiving downlink control information (DCI) on a physical downlink control channel (PDCCH); and transmitting a PUSCH, wherein a redundancy version field in the DCI indicates a pattern of redundancy versions for each repetition, a sounding reference signal index (SRI) field in the DCI indicates a pattern of sounding reference signal indexes for each repetition, a spatial domain filter, associated with each sounding reference signal index of the sounding reference signal indexes, is applied to each repetition, and the pattern of redundancy versions is independently applied to transmission occasions for the PUSCH corresponding to a same sounding reference signal index.
