Abstract

Various aspects of the present disclosure generally relate to wireless communication. In some aspects, a wireless communication device may determining a physical uplink control channel (PUCCH) transmission characteristic, wherein the PUCCH transmission characteristic is a quantity of PUCCH transmissions in a sub-slot or a format of a set of PUCCH transmissions in the sub-slot, and wherein the wireless communication device supports at least one sub-slot hybrid automatic repeat request (HARQ) acknowledgement (ACK) codebook; and reporting information identifying the PUCCH characteristic for a plurality of types of symbol codebooks. Numerous other aspects are provided.
