Abstract:
1. A method for wireless communication, comprising: determining uplink control information (UCI); determining a number of symbols for the UCI on each of a plurality of layers based on a spectral resource parameters computed for a plurality of transport blocks; multiplexing symbols for the UCI with data on each of the plurality of layers such that the symbols for the UCI are time aligned across each of the plurality of layers; and sending the multiplexed symbols for the UCI with the data on the plurality of layers on uplink, wherein the determining the number of symbols for the UCI on each of the plurality of layers based on the spectral resource parameters includes determining the number of symbols for the UCI on each of the plurality of layers based on: wherein Q′ represents the number of symbols for UCI on each of the plurality of layers, Q′ min represents a minimum number of symbols for UCI on each of the plurality of layers, O represents a number of Hybrid Automatic Repeat-Request (HARQ) data acknowledgement (ACK) bits or a number of rank indicator (RI) bits, β offset PUSCH represents an offset configured by a higher layer, C (x) represents a number of code blocks for transport block (TB) x, K r (x) represents a number of bits for code block r in the transport block (TB) x, M sc PUSCH-initial represents an initially scheduled bandwidth for a transport block, expressed as a number of subcarriers, M sc PUSCH represents a scheduled bandwidth for the current physical uplink shared channel (PUSCH) in a unit of subcarrier and N symb PUSCH-initial represents a number of single-carrier frequency division multiplexing (SC-FDM) symbols in a subframe for an initial PUSCH transmission.
