Terminal device attempts to initiate a COT-u after the channel is sensed to be idle and transmit a configured grant PUSCH. A start of a time domain resource of the configured grant PUSCH is aligned with the start of the FFP-u. In a case that the FFP-u does not overlap with an IP-g of an FFP-g, the COT-u is initiated and the configured grant PUSCH is transmitted.

Terminal devices and base stations devices

A terminal device receives a DCI format triggering a Type-3 HARQ-ACK codebook; and transmission circuitry configured to transmit the Type-3 HARQ-ACK codebook via a first PUCCH indicated by the DCI format; wherein the first PUCCH is associated with a first priority index; wherein the first priority index is indicated by the DCI format, or is configured by a RRC parameter, or is predetermined.

Terminal devices, base stations, and communication methods

Terminal device initiates a COT-u at the beginning of an FFP-u after the channel is sensed to be idle. In a case that the maximum COT overlaps with an IP-g and the beginning of the IP-g is before the beginning of the IP-u, the uplink transmission is paused before or at the beginning of the IP-g and the uplink transmission is resumed after the channel is sensed to be idle.

User equipments, and base stations

A terminal apparatus includes a receiver configured to receive a PDCCH including a DCI format indicating transmission of a PUCCH, and a transmitter configured to transmit the PUCCH. The number of slots Nis configured by a higher layer parameter NrofSlots, the PUCCH is repeated in the Nslots, a first PRB is configured by a higher layer parameter StartingPRB, a second PRB is configured by a higher layer parameter SecondHopPRB, one hopping pattern is determined based on the DCI format, and whether repetition of the PUCCH in each of the Nslots is allocated at least in the first PRB or at least in the second PRB is determined based on the one hopping pattern.

Terminal apparatus and base station apparatus

Terminal device receives a SS/PBCH block with an odd index and a PDCCH in a Type0-PDCCH CSS set. A predefined table provides configurations for the Type0-PDCCH CSS set. The first symbol index is Nin a first row, and the first symbol index is N+Nin a second row. The first row and the second row are different rows in the predefined table.

Terminal devices and base station devices

A user equipment (UE) is described. The UE may comprise high-layer processing circuitry configured to acquire a first RRC parameter and transmission circuitry configured to transmit a PUSCH in multiple slots. If the first RRC parameter is set to a first value, conditions in a slot format procedure may not be used for determination of the multiple slots. If the first RRC parameter is set to a second value, the conditions in the slot format procedure may be used for the determination of the multiple slots.
