Terminal apparatus
View Patent ↗Repeated transmission in a slot is efficiently performed with less control information. In a case that a parameter related to frequency hopping is configured to intra-slot hopping, a slot is divided into a first section and a second section and at least one demodulation reference signal is mapped to each of the first section and the second section. In a case that a parameter related to PUSCH repetition in a slot is enabled, a first section and a second section are generated according to a criterion identical to a criterion used in a case that information related to the frequency hopping is enabled, at least one demodulation reference signal is mapped to the first section and the second section, two PUSCHs generated from a same transport block are generated, and the two generated PUSCHs are mapped to the first section and the second section.
