In some wireless systems (e.g., new radio (NR) systems), a system may employ fixed or variable length uplink burst regions (e.g., in an uplink-centric slot). The base sta- tion may semi-statically or dynamically configure a user equipment (UE) or group of UEs for uplink control channel transmissions with- in an uplink burst region. In semi-static configuration, the UE may determine the uplink control channel transmission based on values transmitted or indicated via higher-layer signaling or based on de- fault values. In dynamic configuration, the UE may receive an indi- cation of actual resources used by the base station in a physical lay- er message. The UE may transmit using an uplink control channel transmission based on the indication. In some cases, the base sta- tion may allocate code division multiplexing (CDM) groups based on which UEs are semi-statically configured and which are dynam- ically configured.
