Claim 9:
10. The UE according to claim 9, wherein:
the processor, in operation and when determining the DMRS port number, selects for all of the number of PUSCH transmissions the DMRS port number such that:
a lower and a higher number of symbols is used for the at least one front-loaded DMRS, and
a same DMRS port number is used for the lower and a higher number of symbols, where the same DMRS port number to be used for all of the at least one front-loaded DMRS is same as the DMRS port number which is associated with the received index value;

and/or
the processor, in operation and when selecting the DMRS port number, skips at least one PUSCH transmission from the number of PUSCH transmissions:
which cannot comprise a higher number of symbols for each of the at least one front-loaded DMRS, and
which cannot use the same DMRS port number as the DMRS port number which is associated with the received index value; and

the transmitter, in operation, transmits the smaller number of PUSCH transmissions such that, for all of the at least one front-loaded DMRS, the higher number of symbols and the same DMRS port number is used.
