Classification: CPC H | IPC H

Claim 19:
20. A user equipment (UE) for wireless communication, comprising:
a processing system that includes processor circuitry and memory circuitry that stores code, the processing system configured to cause the UE to:
obtain a physical uplink control channel (PUCCH) resource set index from a base station:
encode uplink control information for transmission on a PUCCH associated with a PUCCH resource set,
wherein the PUCCH resource set index indicates a time-division orthogonal cover code (TD-OCC), of a plurality of TD-OCCs, that is used to encode the uplink control information, and
wherein:
the uplink control information is transmitted using an interlace when an indication to use the interlace is received in information associated with the PUCCH resource set, the interlace corresponding to an interlace index that is associated with a PUCCH resource index, or
the uplink control information is transmitted with a frequency hopping pattern that is associated with the PUCCH resource index; and

wherein the TD-OCC and a first symbol of the PUCCH resource set are based on at least one of the PUCCH resource set index or the PUCCH resource indexi and

output the uplink control information on the PUCCH associated with the PUCCH resource set.
