Claim 13:
14. An apparatus comprising:
at least one processor; and
at least one non-transitory memory storing instructions that, when executed by the at least one processor, cause the apparatus at least to:
transmit downlink triggering signaling to a user equipment, the downlink triggering signaling indicating a set of at least one uplink resource;
receive uplink signaling with the set of at least one uplink resource indicated by triggering bits of the downlink triggering signaling, wherein the triggering bits of the downlink triggering signaling comprise two bits, and wherein a value of the triggering bits being different from zero indicates to the user equipment to transmit the uplink signaling with the set of at least one uplink resource defined with the value of the triggering bits, and the value of the triggering bits being zero indicates to the user equipment to not transmit the uplink signaling with the set of at least one uplink resource;
transmit a reply to the uplink signaling, wherein the reply identifies one or more of the at least one uplink resource for the user equipment to use for sending uplink data; and
receive the uplink data on the identified one or more of the at least one uplink resource.
