Abstract
A user equipment (UE) is described. The UE determines a joint coding for more than two bits of total payload for low priority hybrid automatic repeat request-acknowledgement (HARQ-ACK) and high priority HARQ-ACK on a physical uplink control channel (PUCCH). The UE also determines a PUCCH resource based on the total HARQ-ACK payload from sets of high priority PUCCH resources. The UE further determines a number of physical resource blocks (PRBs) for a PUCCH transmission based on the total HARQ-ACK payload and a maxCodeRate on the selected PUCCH resource. The UE also multiplexes the low priority HARQ-ACK and the high priority HARQ-ACK based on the determined joint coding. The UE further transmits the multiplexed HARQ-ACK on the PUCCH.
