Claim 13:
14. The method according to claim 1, wherein the received PDCCH or higher layer grant scheduling n>1 transmissions comprises n′≤n SRI fields, wherein a b-bit field is within the SRI field(s) or along with the SRI field(s) or as a separate field, where b≥1, that indicates at least one of the following:
none of the SRS resources indicated by the SRI fields are to be used for the PUSCH transmission occasions scheduled by the PDCCH or higher layer grant;
the SRS resources indicated by at least one of the SRI fields is not used for any of the PUSCH transmission occasions scheduled by the PDCCH or higher layer grant;
the bit field of at least one of the SRI fields is not used to determine the SRS resources from the corresponding SRS resource sets for any of the PUSCH transmission occasions scheduled by the PDCCH or higher layer grant;
the bit fields of only a proper subset of the SRI fields in the PDCCH or higher layer grant are used for at least one PUSCH transmission occasion scheduled by the PDCCH or higher layer grant; and
the SRS resources indicated by every SRI field in the PDCCH or higher layer grant is used for at least one PUSCH transmission occasion scheduled by the PDCCH or higher layer grant.
