Published: — with international search report (Art. 21(3)) (54) Title: FLEXIBLE SCHEDULING IN NEW RADIO (NR) NETWORKS (57) : Aspects of the present disclosure provide a mechanism for flexible scheduling of grants for downlink or uplink transmissions. In some (START ) examples, a grant may be scheduled using multiple control signals, where subsequent control signals may modify one or more properties of the grant. For example, the grant may be modified to add a packet to the grant for trans- 1702 mission on a different set of time-frequency resources or a different set of multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) layers, modify a time-frequency re- source allocation of the grant, modify the waveform utilized for the grant, modify the transmit-diversity scheme utilized for the grant, or indicate spe- Transmi first control channel including gran cific processing for the packet. Modify at least one property of the grant to produce grant modification information 1706 Transmit second control channel including at least the grant modification information \"...-17023 FIG. 17
