Method and apparatus for handling repetitions of physical uplink shared channel (PUSCH) transmission in wireless communication system
A method performed by a User Equipment (UE) is provided. The method includes the UE receiving a Radio Resource Control (RRC) configuration including a first parameter configured with a first value and a second parameter configured with at least one second value. Each of the first value and the at least one second value indicates a number of PUSCH repetitions. The method further includes the UE receiving Downlink Control Information (DCI) on a Physical Downlink Control Channel (PDCCH) scheduling a Physical Uplink Shared Channel (PUSCH) transmission, selecting, according to the DCI, one of the first parameter and the second parameter to determine a number of PUSCH repetitions for the PUSCH transmission, determining the number of PUSCH repetitions for the PUSCH transmission as the first value when the first parameter is selected, determining the number of PUSCH repetitions for the PUSCH transmission as one of the at least one second value indicated by the DCI when the second parameter is selected, and performing the PUSCH transmission for a number of times based on the number of PUSCH repetitions.
1. A method performed by a User Equipment (UE) for handling repetitions of transmissions in a wireless communication system, the method comprising:
receiving a Radio Resource Control (RRC) configuration comprising a first parameter configured with a first value and a second parameter configured with at least one second value, each of the first value and the at least one second value indicating a number of Physical Uplink Shared Channel (PUSCH) repetitions;
receiving Downlink Control Information (DCI) on a Physical Downlink Control Channel (PDCCH) scheduling a PUSCH transmission;
selecting, according to the DCI, one of the first parameter and the second parameter to determine a number of PUSCH repetitions for the PUSCH transmission;
determining the number of PUSCH repetitions for the PUSCH transmission as the first value when the first parameter is selected;
determining the number of PUSCH repetitions for the PUSCH transmission as one of the at least one second value indicated by the DCI when the second parameter is selected; and
performing the PUSCH transmission for a number of times based on the number of PUSCH repetitions for the PUSCH transmission.
2. The method of claim 1 , further comprising:
selecting the second parameter to determine the number of PUSCH repetitions for the PUSCH transmission when the DCI has a DCI format associated with the second parameter and comprises an index indicating the one of the at least one second value.
3. The method of claim 2 , wherein the second parameter defines an association between the index and a set of values including a third value indicating a starting symbol of the PUSCH transmission and a fourth value indicating a number of consecutive symbols of the PUSCH transmission.
4. The method of claim 1 , wherein the first parameter and the second parameter are configured per a Bandwidth Part (BWP) basis.
5. A User Equipment (UE) for handling repetitions of transmissions in a wireless communication system, the UE comprising:
one or more non-transitory computer-readable media having computer-executable instructions embodied thereon; and
at least one processor coupled to the one or more non-transitory computer-readable media, and configured to execute the computer-executable instructions to:
receive a Radio Resource Control (RRC) configuration comprising a first parameter configured with a first value and a second parameter configured with at least one second value, each of the first value and the at least one second value indicating a number of Physical Uplink Shared Channel (PUSCH) repetitions;
receive Downlink Control Information (DCI) on a Physical Downlink Control Channel (PDCCH) scheduling a PUSCH transmission;
select, according to the DCI, one of the first parameter and the second parameter to determine a number of PUSCH repetitions for the PUSCH transmission;
determine the number of PUSCH repetitions for the PUSCH transmission as the first value when the first parameter is selected;
determine the number of PUSCH repetitions for the PUSCH transmission as one of the at least one second value indicated by the DCI when the second parameter is selected; and
perform the PUSCH transmission for a number of times based on the number of PUSCH repetitions for the PUSCH transmission.
6. The method of claim 5 , wherein the at least one processor is further configured to execute the computer-executable instructions to:
select the second parameter to determine the number of PUSCH repetitions for the PUSCH transmission when the DCI has a DCI format associated with the second parameter and comprises an index indicating the one of the at least one second value.
7. The method of claim 6 , wherein the second parameter defines an association between the index and a set of values including a third value indicating a starting symbol of the PUSCH transmission and a fourth value indicating a number of consecutive symbols of the PUSCH transmission.
8. The method of claim 5 , wherein the first parameter and the second parameter are configured per a Bandwidth Part (BWP) basis.
