Title: Methods and apparatus for utilizing ul symbols for deferred sps harq-ack transmissions

Description:
BACKGROUND 
     Technical Field 
     The present disclosure relates generally to communication systems, and more particularly, to transmission of deferred acknowledgments in a wireless communication system. 
     Introduction 
     Wireless communication systems are widely deployed to provide various telecommunication services such as telephony, video, data, messaging, and broadcasts. Typical wireless communication systems may employ multiple-access technologies capable of supporting communication with multiple users by sharing available system resources. Examples of such multiple-access technologies include code division multiple access (CDMA) systems, time division multiple access (TDMA) systems, frequency division multiple access (FDMA) systems, orthogonal frequency division multiple access (OFDMA) systems, single-carrier frequency division multiple access (SC-FDMA) systems, and time division synchronous code division multiple access (TD-SCDMA) systems. 
     These multiple access technologies have been adopted in various telecommunication standards to provide a common protocol that enables different wireless devices to communicate on a municipal, national, regional, and even global level. An example telecommunication standard is 5G New Radio (NR). 5G NR is part of a continuous mobile broadband evolution promulgated by Third Generation Partnership Project (3GPP) to meet new requirements associated with latency, reliability, security, scalability (e.g., with Internet of Things (IoT)), and other requirements. 5G NR includes services associated with enhanced mobile broadband (eMBB), massive machine type communications (mMTC), and ultra-reliable low latency communications (URLLC). Some aspects of 5G NR may be based on the 4G Long Term Evolution (LTE) standard. There exists a need for further improvements in 5G NR technology. These improvements may also be applicable to other multi-access technologies and the telecommunication standards that employ these technologies. 
     SUMMARY 
     The following presents a simplified summary of one or more aspects in order to provide a basic understanding of such aspects. This summary is not an extensive overview of all contemplated aspects, and is intended to neither identify key or critical elements of all aspects nor delineate the scope of any or all aspects. Its sole purpose is to present some concepts of one or more aspects in a simplified form as a prelude to the more detailed description that is presented later. 
     In an aspect of the disclosure, a method, a computer-readable medium, and an apparatus are provided. The apparatus may be a user equipment (UE). The apparatus may determine whether one or more first physical uplink control channel (PUCCH) resources, one or more second PUCCH resources, or one or more third PUCCH resources of a plurality of PUCCH resources are suitable for at least one uplink transmission. Each of the one or more first PUCCH resources may include a payload capacity equal to a payload threshold.

     DETAILED DESCRIPTION 
     The detailed description set forth below in connection with the appended drawings is intended as a description of various configurations and is not intended to represent the only configurations in which the concepts described herein may be practiced. The detailed description includes specific details for the purpose of providing a thorough understanding of various concepts. However, it will be apparent to those skilled in the art that these concepts may be practiced without these specific details. In some instances, well known structures and components are shown in block diagram form in order to avoid obscuring such concepts. 
     Several aspects of telecommunication systems will now be presented with reference to various apparatus and methods. These apparatus and methods will be described in the following detailed description and illustrated in the accompanying drawings by various blocks, components, circuits, processes, algorithms, etc. (collectively referred to as “elements”). These elements may be implemented using electronic hardware, computer software, or any combination thereof. Whether such elements are implemented as hardware or software depends upon the particular application and design constraints imposed on the overall system. 
     By way of example, an element, or any portion of an element, or any combination of elements may be implemented as a “processing system” that includes one or more processors. Examples of processors include microprocessors, microcontrollers, graphics processing units (GPUs), central processing units (CPUs), application processors, digital signal processors (DSPs), reduced instruction set computing (RISC) processors, systems on a chip (SoC), baseband processors, field programmable gate arrays (FPGAs), programmable logic devices (PLDs), state machines, gated logic, discrete hardware circuits, and other suitable hardware configured to perform the various functionality described throughout this disclosure. One or more processors in the processing system may execute software. Software shall be construed broadly to mean instructions, instruction sets, code, code segments, program code, programs, subprograms, software components, applications, software applications, software packages, routines, subroutines, objects, executables, threads of execution, procedures, functions, etc., whether referred to as software, firmware, middleware, microcode, hardware description language, or otherwise. 
     Accordingly, in one or more example embodiments, the functions described may be implemented in hardware, software, or any combination thereof. If implemented in software, the functions may be stored on or encoded as one or more instructions or code on a computer-readable medium. Computer-readable media includes computer storage media. Storage media may be any available media that can be accessed by a computer. By way of example, and not limitation, such computer-readable media can comprise a random-access memory (RAM), a read-only memory (ROM), an electrically erasable programmable ROM (EEPROM), optical disk storage, magnetic disk storage, other magnetic storage devices, combinations of the aforementioned types of computer-readable media, or any other medium that can be used to store computer executable code in the form of instructions or data structures that can be accessed by a computer. 
       FIG. 1  is a diagram illustrating an example of a wireless communications system and an access network  100 . The wireless communications system (also referred to as a wireless wide area network (WWAN)) includes base stations  102 , UEs  104 , an Evolved Packet Core (EPC)  160 , and another core network  190  (e.g., a 5G Core (5GC)). The base stations  102  may include macrocells (high power cellular base station) and/or small cells (low power cellular base station). The macrocells include base stations. The small cells include femtocells, picocells, and microcells. 
     The base stations  102  configured for 4G LTE (collectively referred to as Evolved Universal Mobile Telecommunications System (UMTS) Terrestrial Radio Access Network (E-UTRAN)) may interface with the EPC  160  through first backhaul links  132  (e.g.,  51  interface). The base stations  102  configured for 5G NR (collectively referred to as Next Generation RAN (NG-RAN)) may interface with core network  190  through second backhaul links  184 . In addition to other functions, the base stations  102  may perform one or more of the following functions: transfer of user data, radio channel ciphering and deciphering, integrity protection, header compression, mobility control functions (e.g., handover, dual connectivity), inter-cell interference coordination, connection setup and release, load balancing, distribution for non-access stratum (NAS) messages, NAS node selection, synchronization, radio access network (RAN) sharing, multimedia broadcast multicast service (MBMS), subscriber and equipment trace, RAN information management (RIM), paging, positioning, and delivery of warning messages. The base stations  102  may communicate directly or indirectly (e.g., through the EPC  160  or core network  190 ) with each other over third backhaul links  134  (e.g., X2 interface). The first backhaul links  132 , the second backhaul links  184 , and the third backhaul links  134  may be wired or wireless. 
     The base stations  102  may wirelessly communicate with the UEs  104 . Each of the base stations  102  may provide communication coverage for a respective geographic coverage area  110 . There may be overlapping geographic coverage areas  110 . For example, the small cell  102 ′ may have a coverage area  110 ′ that overlaps the coverage area  110  of one or more macro base stations  102 . A network that includes both small cell and macrocells may be known as a heterogeneous network. A heterogeneous network may also include Home Evolved Node Bs (eNBs) (HeNBs), which may provide service to a restricted group known as a closed subscriber group (CSG). The communication links  120  between the base stations  102  and the UEs  104  may include uplink (UL) (also referred to as reverse link) transmissions from a UE  104  to a base station  102  and/or downlink (DL) (also referred to as forward link) transmissions from a base station  102  to a UE  104 . The communication links  120  may use multiple-input and multiple-output (MIMO) antenna technology, including spatial multiplexing, beamforming, and/or transmit diversity. The communication links may be through one or more carriers. The base stations  102 /UEs  104  may use spectrum up to Y MHz (e.g., 5, 10, 15, 20, 100, 400, etc. MHz) bandwidth per carrier allocated in a carrier aggregation of up to a total of Yx MHz (x component carriers) used for transmission in each direction. The carriers may or may not be adjacent to each other. Allocation of carriers may be asymmetric with respect to DL and UL (e.g., more or fewer carriers may be allocated for DL than for UL). The component carriers may include a primary component carrier and one or more secondary component carriers. A primary component carrier may be referred to as a primary cell (PCell) and a secondary component carrier may be referred to as a secondary cell (SCell). 
     Certain UEs  104  may communicate with each other using device-to-device (D2D) communication link  158 . The D2D communication link  158  may use the DL/UL WWAN spectrum. The D2D communication link  158  may use one or more sidelink channels, such as a physical sidelink broadcast channel (PSBCH), a physical sidelink discovery channel (PSDCH), a physical sidelink shared channel (PSSCH), and a physical sidelink control channel (PSCCH). D2D communication may be through a variety of wireless D2D communications systems, such as for example, WiMedia, Bluetooth, ZigBee, Wi-Fi based on the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE) 802.11 standard, LTE, or NR. 
     The wireless communications system may further include a Wi-Fi access point (AP)  150  in communication with Wi-Fi stations (STAs)  152  via communication links  154 , e.g., in a 5 GHz unlicensed frequency spectrum or the like. When communicating in an unlicensed frequency spectrum, the STAs  152 /AP  150  may perform a clear channel assessment (CCA) prior to communicating in order to determine whether the channel is available. 
     The small cell  102 ′ may operate in a licensed and/or an unlicensed frequency spectrum. When operating in an unlicensed frequency spectrum, the small cell  102 ′ may employ NR and use the same unlicensed frequency spectrum (e.g., 5 GHz, or the like) as used by the Wi-Fi AP  150 . The small cell  102 ′, employing NR in an unlicensed frequency spectrum, may boost coverage to and/or increase capacity of the access network. 
     The electromagnetic spectrum is often subdivided, based on frequency/wavelength, into various classes, bands, channels, etc. In 5G NR, two initial operating bands have been identified as frequency range designations FR1 (410 MHz-7.125 GHz) and FR2 (24.25 GHz-52.6 GHz). The frequencies between FR1 and FR2 are often referred to as mid-band frequencies. Although a portion of FR1 is greater than 6 GHz, FR1 is often referred to (interchangeably) as a “sub-6 GHz” band in various documents and articles. A similar nomenclature issue sometimes occurs with regard to FR2, which is often referred to (interchangeably) as a “millimeter wave” band in documents and articles, despite being different from the extremely high frequency (EHF) band (30 GHz-300 GHz) which is identified by the International Telecommunications Union (ITU) as a “millimeter wave” band. 
     With the above aspects in mind, unless specifically stated otherwise, it should be understood that the term “sub-6 GHz” or the like if used herein may broadly represent frequencies that may be less than 6 GHz, may be within FR1, or may include mid-band frequencies. Further, unless specifically stated otherwise, it should be understood that the term “millimeter wave” or the like if used herein may broadly represent frequencies that may include mid-band frequencies, may be within FR2, or may be within the EHF band. 
     A base station  102 , whether a small cell  102 ′ or a large cell (e.g., macro base station), may include and/or be referred to as an eNB, gNodeB (gNB), or another type of base station. Some base stations, such as gNB  180  may operate in a traditional sub 6 GHz spectrum, in millimeter wave frequencies, and/or near millimeter wave frequencies in communication with the UE  104 . When the gNB  180  operates in millimeter wave or near millimeter wave frequencies, the gNB  180  may be referred to as a millimeter wave base station. The millimeter wave base station  180  may utilize beamforming  182  with the UE  104  to compensate for the path loss and short range. The base station  180  and the UE  104  may each include a plurality of antennas, such as antenna elements, antenna panels, and/or antenna arrays to facilitate the beamforming. 
     The base station  180  may transmit a beamformed signal to the UE  104  in one or more transmit directions  182 ′. The UE  104  may receive the beamformed signal from the base station  180  in one or more receive directions  182 ″. The UE  104  may also transmit a beamformed signal to the base station  180  in one or more transmit directions. The base station  180  may receive the beamformed signal from the UE  104  in one or more receive directions. The base station  180 /UE  104  may perform beam training to determine the best receive and transmit directions for each of the base station  180 /UE  104 . The transmit and receive directions for the base station  180  may or may not be the same. The transmit and receive directions for the UE  104  may or may not be the same. 
     The EPC  160  may include a Mobility Management Entity (MME)  162 , other MMES  164 , a Serving Gateway  166 , a Multimedia Broadcast Multicast Service (MBMS) Gateway  168 , a Broadcast Multicast Service Center (BM-SC)  170 , and a Packet Data Network (PDN) Gateway  172 . The MME  162  may be in communication with a Home Subscriber Server (HSS)  174 . The MME  162  is the control node that processes the signaling between the UEs  104  and the EPC  160 . Generally, the MME  162  provides bearer and connection management. All user Internet protocol (IP) packets are transferred through the Serving Gateway  166 , which itself is connected to the PDN Gateway  172 . The PDN Gateway  172  provides UE IP address allocation as well as other functions. The PDN Gateway  172  and the BM-SC  170  are connected to the IP Services  176 . The IP Services  176  may include the Internet, an intranet, an IP Multimedia Subsystem (IMS), a PS Streaming Service, and/or other IP services. The BM-SC  170  may provide functions for MBMS user service provisioning and delivery. The BM-SC  170  may serve as an entry point for content provider MBMS transmission, may be used to authorize and initiate MBMS Bearer Services within a public land mobile network (PLMN), and may be used to schedule MBMS transmissions. The MBMS Gateway  168  may be used to distribute MBMS traffic to the base stations  102  belonging to a Multicast Broadcast Single Frequency Network (MBSFN) area broadcasting a particular service, and may be responsible for session management (start/stop) and for collecting eMBMS related charging information. 
     The core network  190  may include an Access and Mobility Management Function (AMF)  192 , other AMFs  193 , a Session Management Function (SMF)  194 , and a User Plane Function (UPF)  195 . The AMF  192  may be in communication with a Unified Data Management (UDM)  196 . The AMF  192  is the control node that processes the signaling between the UEs  104  and the core network  190 . Generally, the AMF  192  provides QoS flow and session management. All user Internet protocol (IP) packets are transferred through the UPF  195 . The UPF  195  provides UE IP address allocation as well as other functions. The UPF  195  is connected to the IP Services  197 . The IP Services  197  may include the Internet, an intranet, an IP Multimedia Subsystem (IMS), a Packet Switch (PS) Streaming (PSS) Service, and/or other IP services. 
     The base station may include and/or be referred to as a gNB, Node B, eNB, an access point, a base transceiver station, a radio base station, a radio transceiver, a transceiver function, a basic service set (BSS), an extended service set (ESS), a transmit reception point (TRP), or some other suitable terminology. The base station  102  provides an access point to the EPC  160  or core network  190  for a UE  104 . Examples of UEs  104  include a cellular phone, a smart phone, a session initiation protocol (SIP) phone, a laptop, a personal digital assistant (PDA), a satellite radio, a global positioning system, a multimedia device, a video device, a digital audio player (e.g., MP3 player), a camera, a game console, a tablet, a smart device, a wearable device, a vehicle, an electric meter, a gas pump, a large or small kitchen appliance, a healthcare device, an implant, a sensor/actuator, a display, or any other similar functioning device. Some of the UEs  104  may be referred to as IoT devices (e.g., parking meter, gas pump, toaster, vehicles, heart monitor, etc.). The UE  104  may also be referred to as a station, a mobile station, a subscriber station, a mobile unit, a subscriber unit, a wireless unit, a remote unit, a mobile device, a wireless device, a wireless communications device, a remote device, a mobile subscriber station, an access terminal, a mobile terminal, a wireless terminal, a remote terminal, a handset, a user agent, a mobile client, a client, or some other suitable terminology. 
     Referring again to  FIG. 1 , in certain aspects, the UE  104  may include a deferred hybrid automatic repeat request (HARQ)-acknowledgment (ACK) component  198  that may be configured to determine whether one or more first physical uplink control channel (PUCCH) resources, one or more second PUCCH resources, or one or more third PUCCH resources of a plurality of PUCCH resources are suitable for at least one uplink transmission. Each of the one or more first PUCCH resources may include a payload capacity equal to a payload threshold. Each of the one or more second PUCCH resources may include a payload capacity greater than the payload threshold. Each of the one or more third PUCCH resources may include a payload capacity less than the payload threshold. The deferred HARQ-ACK component  198  may be configured to select, upon determining that the one or more first PUCCH resources are suitable for the at least one uplink transmission, at least one of the one or more first PUCCH resources for the at least one uplink transmission. The deferred HARQ-ACK component  198  may be configured to select, upon determining that the one or more first PUCCH resources are not suitable and the one or more second PUCCH resources are suitable for the at least one uplink transmission, at least one of the one or more second PUCCH resources for the at least one uplink transmissions. The deferred HARQ-ACK component  198  may be configured to select, upon determining that the one or more first PUCCH resources and the one or more second PUCCH resources are not suitable and the one or more third PUCCH resources are suitable for the at least one uplink transmission, at least one of the one or more third PUCCH resources for the at least one uplink transmission. The deferred HARQ-ACK component  198  may be configured to transmit, based on the selection of PUCCH resources, the at least one uplink transmission via the selected at least one of the one or more first PUCCH resources, the one or more second PUCCH resources, or the one or more third PUCCH resources. 
     In certain aspects, the base station  180  may include a deferred HARQ-ACK component  199  that may be configured to transmit, to a UE, an indication of a PUCCH transmission collision associated with at least one uplink transmission. The deferred HARQ-ACK component  199  may be configured to receive, from the UE, the at least one uplink transmission via at least one of one or more first PUCCH resources, one or more second PUCCH resources, or one or more third PUCCH resources of a plurality of PUCCH resources. Each of the one or more first PUCCH resources may include a payload capacity equal to a payload threshold. Each of the one or more second PUCCH resources may include a payload capacity greater than the payload threshold. Each of the one or more third PUCCH resources may include a payload capacity less than the payload threshold. The at least one uplink transmission may be received via at least one of the one or more first PUCCH resources when the one or more first PUCCH resources are suitable for the at least one uplink transmission, via at least one of the one or more second PUCCH resources when the one or more first PUCCH resources are not suitable and the one or more second PUCCH resources are suitable for the at least one uplink transmission, or via at least one of the one or more third PUCCH resources when the one or more first PUCCH resources and the one or more second PUCCH resources are not suitable and the one or more third PUCCH resources are suitable for the at least one uplink transmission. 
     Although the following description may be focused on 5G NR, the concepts described herein may be applicable to other similar areas, such as LTE, LTE-A, CDMA, GSM, and other wireless technologies. 
       FIG. 2A  is a diagram  200  illustrating an example of a first subframe within a 5G NR frame structure.  FIG. 2B  is a diagram  230  illustrating an example of DL channels within a 5G NR subframe.  FIG. 2C  is a diagram  250  illustrating an example of a second subframe within a 5G NR frame structure.  FIG. 2D  is a diagram  280  illustrating an example of UL channels within a 5G NR subframe. The 5G NR frame structure may be frequency division duplexed (FDD) in which for a particular set of subcarriers (carrier system bandwidth), subframes within the set of subcarriers are dedicated for either DL or UL, or may be time division duplexed (TDD) in which for a particular set of subcarriers (carrier system bandwidth), subframes within the set of subcarriers are dedicated for both DL and UL. In the examples provided by  FIGS. 2A, 2C , the 5G NR frame structure is assumed to be TDD, with subframe 4 being configured with slot format 28 (with mostly DL), where D is DL, U is UL, and F is flexible for use between DL/UL, and subframe 3 being configured with slot format 1 (with all UL). While subframes 3, 4 are shown with slot formats 1, 28, respectively, any particular subframe may be configured with any of the various available slot formats 0-61. Slot formats 0, 1 are all DL, UL, respectively. Other slot formats 2-61 include a mix of DL, UL, and flexible symbols. UEs are configured with the slot format (dynamically through DL control information (DCI), or semi-statically/statically through radio resource control (RRC) signaling) through a received slot format indicator (SFI). Note that the description infra applies also to a 5G NR frame structure that is TDD. 
     Other wireless communication technologies may have a different frame structure and/or different channels. A frame (10 ms) may be divided into 10 equally sized subframes (1 ms). Each subframe may include one or more time slots. Subframes may also include mini-slots, which may include 7, 4, or 2 symbols. Each slot may include 7 or 14 symbols, depending on the slot configuration. For slot configuration 0, each slot may include 14 symbols, and for slot configuration 1, each slot may include 7 symbols. The symbols on DL may be cyclic prefix (CP) orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) (CP-OFDM) symbols. The symbols on UL may be CP-OFDM symbols (for high throughput scenarios) or discrete Fourier transform (DFT) spread OFDM (DFT-s-OFDM) symbols (also referred to as single carrier frequency-division multiple access (SC-FDMA) symbols) (for power limited scenarios; limited to a single stream transmission). The number of slots within a subframe is based on the slot configuration and the numerology. For slot configuration 0, different numerologies μ 0 to 4 allow for 1, 2, 4, 8, and 16 slots, respectively, per subframe. For slot configuration 1, different numerologies 0 to 2 allow for 2, 4, and 8 slots, respectively, per subframe. Accordingly, for slot configuration 0 and numerology μ, there are 14 symbols/slot and 2 μ  slots/subframe. The subcarrier spacing and symbol length/duration are a function of the numerology. The subcarrier spacing may be equal to 2 μ *15 kHz, where μ is the numerology 0 to 4. As such, the numerology μ=0 has a subcarrier spacing of 15 kHz and the numerology μ=4 has a subcarrier spacing of 240 kHz. The symbol length/duration is inversely related to the subcarrier spacing.  FIGS. 2A-2D  provide an example of slot configuration 0 with 14 symbols per slot and numerology μ=2 with 4 slots per subframe. The slot duration is 0.25 ms, the subcarrier spacing is 60 kHz, and the symbol duration is approximately 16.67 μs. Within a set of frames, there may be one or more different bandwidth parts (BWPs) (see  FIG. 2B ) that are frequency division multiplexed. Each BWP may have a particular numerology. 
     A resource grid may be used to represent the frame structure. Each time slot includes a resource block (RB) (also referred to as physical RBs (PRBs)) that extends  12  consecutive subcarriers. The resource grid is divided into multiple resource elements (REs). The number of bits carried by each RE depends on the modulation scheme. 
     As illustrated in  FIG. 2A , some of the REs carry reference (pilot) signals (RS) for the UE. The RS may include demodulation RS (DM-RS) (indicated as R for one particular configuration, but other DM-RS configurations are possible) and channel state information reference signals (CSI-RS) for channel estimation at the UE. The RS may also include beam measurement RS (BRS), beam refinement RS (BRRS), and phase tracking RS (PT-RS). 
       FIG. 2B  illustrates an example of various DL channels within a subframe of a frame. The physical downlink control channel (PDCCH) carries DCI within one or more control channel elements (CCEs) (e.g., 1, 2, 4, 8, or 16 CCEs), each CCE including six RE groups (REGs), each REG including 12 consecutive REs in an OFDM symbol of an RB. A PDCCH within one BWP may be referred to as a control resource set (CORESET). A UE is configured to monitor PDCCH candidates in a PDCCH search space (e.g., common search space, UE-specific search space) during PDCCH monitoring occasions on the CORESET, where the PDCCH candidates have different DCI formats and different aggregation levels. Additional BWPs may be located at greater and/or lower frequencies across the channel bandwidth. A primary synchronization signal (PSS) may be within symbol 2 of particular subframes of a frame. The PSS is used by a UE  104  to determine subframe/symbol timing and a physical layer identity. A secondary synchronization signal (SSS) may be within symbol 4 of particular subframes of a frame. The SSS is used by a UE to determine a physical layer cell identity group number and radio frame timing. Based on the physical layer identity and the physical layer cell identity group number, the UE can determine a physical cell identifier (PCI). Based on the PCI, the UE can determine the locations of the aforementioned DM-RS. The physical broadcast channel (PBCH), which carries a master information block (MIB), may be logically grouped with the PSS and SSS to form a synchronization signal (SS)/PBCH block (also referred to as SS block (SSB)). The MIB provides a number of RBs in the system bandwidth and a system frame number (SFN). The physical downlink shared channel (PDSCH) carries user data, broadcast system information not transmitted through the PBCH such as system information blocks (SIBs), and paging messages. 
     As illustrated in  FIG. 2C , some of the REs carry DM-RS (indicated as R for one particular configuration, but other DM-RS configurations are possible) for channel estimation at the base station. The UE may transmit DM-RS for the physical uplink control channel (PUCCH) and DM-RS for the physical uplink shared channel (PUSCH). The PUSCH DM-RS may be transmitted in the first one or two symbols of the PUSCH. The PUCCH DM-RS may be transmitted in different configurations depending on whether short or long PUCCHs are transmitted and depending on the particular PUCCH format used. The UE may transmit sounding reference signals (SRS). The SRS may be transmitted in the last symbol of a subframe. The SRS may have a comb structure, and a UE may transmit SRS on one of the combs. The SRS may be used by a base station for channel quality estimation to enable frequency-dependent scheduling on the UL. 
       FIG. 2D  illustrates an example of various UL channels within a subframe of a frame. The PUCCH may be located as indicated in one configuration. The PUCCH carries uplink control information (UCI), such as scheduling requests, a channel quality indicator (CQI), a precoding matrix indicator (PMI), a rank indicator (RI), and hybrid automatic repeat request (HARQ) acknowledgment (ACK) (HARQ-ACK) information (ACK/negative ACK (NACK)) feedback. The PUSCH carries data, and may additionally be used to carry a buffer status report (BSR), a power headroom report (PHR), and/or UCI. 
       FIG. 3  is a block diagram of a base station  310  in communication with a UE  350  in an access network. In the DL, IP packets from the EPC  160  may be provided to a controller/processor  375 . The controller/processor  375  implements layer 3 and layer 2 functionality. Layer 3 includes a radio resource control (RRC) layer, and layer 2 includes a service data adaptation protocol (SDAP) layer, a packet data convergence protocol (PDCP) layer, a radio link control (RLC) layer, and a medium access control (MAC) layer. The controller/processor  375  provides RRC layer functionality associated with broadcasting of system information (e.g., MIB, SIBs), RRC connection control (e.g., RRC connection paging, RRC connection establishment, RRC connection modification, and RRC connection release), inter radio access technology (RAT) mobility, and measurement configuration for UE measurement reporting; PDCP layer functionality associated with header compression/decompression, security (ciphering, deciphering, integrity protection, integrity verification), and handover support functions; RLC layer functionality associated with the transfer of upper layer packet data units (PDUs), error correction through ARQ, concatenation, segmentation, and reassembly of RLC service data units (SDUs), re-segmentation of RLC data PDUs, and reordering of RLC data PDUs; and MAC layer functionality associated with mapping between logical channels and transport channels, multiplexing of MAC SDUs onto transport blocks (TBs), demultiplexing of MAC SDUs from TBs, scheduling information reporting, error correction through HARQ, priority handling, and logical channel prioritization. 
     The transmit (TX) processor  316  and the receive (RX) processor  370  implement layer 1 functionality associated with various signal processing functions. Layer 1, which includes a physical (PHY) layer, may include error detection on the transport channels, forward error correction (FEC) coding/decoding of the transport channels, interleaving, rate matching, mapping onto physical channels, modulation/demodulation of physical channels, and MIMO antenna processing. The TX processor  316  handles mapping to signal constellations based on various modulation schemes (e.g., binary phase-shift keying (BPSK), quadrature phase-shift keying (QPSK), M-phase-shift keying (M-PSK), M-quadrature amplitude modulation (M-QAM)). The coded and modulated symbols may then be split into parallel streams. Each stream may then be mapped to an OFDM subcarrier, multiplexed with a reference signal (e.g., pilot) in the time and/or frequency domain, and then combined together using an Inverse Fast Fourier Transform (IFFT) to produce a physical channel carrying a time domain OFDM symbol stream. The OFDM stream is spatially precoded to produce multiple spatial streams. Channel estimates from a channel estimator  374  may be used to determine the coding and modulation scheme, as well as for spatial processing. The channel estimate may be derived from a reference signal and/or channel condition feedback transmitted by the UE  350 . Each spatial stream may then be provided to a different antenna  320  via a separate transmitter  318  TX. Each transmitter  318  TX may modulate an RF carrier with a respective spatial stream for transmission. 
     At the UE  350 , each receiver  354  RX receives a signal through its respective antenna  352 . Each receiver  354  RX recovers information modulated onto an RF carrier and provides the information to the receive (RX) processor  356 . The TX processor  368  and the RX processor  356  implement layer 1 functionality associated with various signal processing functions. The RX processor  356  may perform spatial processing on the information to recover any spatial streams destined for the UE  350 . If multiple spatial streams are destined for the UE  350 , they may be combined by the RX processor  356  into a single OFDM symbol stream. The RX processor  356  then converts the OFDM symbol stream from the time-domain to the frequency domain using a Fast Fourier Transform (FFT). The frequency domain signal comprises a separate OFDM symbol stream for each subcarrier of the OFDM signal. The symbols on each subcarrier, and the reference signal, are recovered and demodulated by determining the most likely signal constellation points transmitted by the base station  310 . These soft decisions may be based on channel estimates computed by the channel estimator  358 . The soft decisions are then decoded and deinterleaved to recover the data and control signals that were originally transmitted by the base station  310  on the physical channel. The data and control signals are then provided to the controller/processor  359 , which implements layer 3 and layer 2 functionality. 
     The controller/processor  359  can be associated with a memory  360  that stores program codes and data. The memory  360  may be referred to as a computer-readable medium. In the UL, the controller/processor  359  provides demultiplexing between transport and logical channels, packet reassembly, deciphering, header decompression, and control signal processing to recover IP packets from the EPC  160 . The controller/processor  359  is also responsible for error detection using an ACK and/or NACK protocol to support HARQ operations. 
     Similar to the functionality described in connection with the DL transmission by the base station  310 , the controller/processor  359  provides RRC layer functionality associated with system information (e.g., MIB, SIBs) acquisition, RRC connections, and measurement reporting; PDCP layer functionality associated with header compression/decompression, and security (ciphering, deciphering, integrity protection, integrity verification); RLC layer functionality associated with the transfer of upper layer PDUs, error correction through ARQ, concatenation, segmentation, and reassembly of RLC SDUs, re-segmentation of RLC data PDUs, and reordering of RLC data PDUs; and MAC layer functionality associated with mapping between logical channels and transport channels, multiplexing of MAC SDUs onto TBs, demultiplexing of MAC SDUs from TBs, scheduling information reporting, error correction through HARQ, priority handling, and logical channel prioritization. 
     Channel estimates derived by a channel estimator  358  from a reference signal or feedback transmitted by the base station  310  may be used by the TX processor  368  to select the appropriate coding and modulation schemes, and to facilitate spatial processing. The spatial streams generated by the TX processor  368  may be provided to different antenna  352  via separate transmitters  354 TX. Each transmitter  354 TX may modulate an RF carrier with a respective spatial stream for transmission. 
     The UL transmission is processed at the base station  310  in a manner similar to that described in connection with the receiver function at the UE  350 . Each receiver  318 RX receives a signal through its respective antenna  320 . Each receiver  318 RX recovers information modulated onto an RF carrier and provides the information to a RX processor  370 . 
     The controller/processor  375  can be associated with a memory  376  that stores program codes and data. The memory  376  may be referred to as a computer-readable medium. In the UL, the controller/processor  375  provides demultiplexing between transport and logical channels, packet reassembly, deciphering, header decompression, control signal processing to recover IP packets from the UE  350 . IP packets from the controller/processor  375  may be provided to the EPC  160 . The controller/processor  375  is also responsible for error detection using an ACK and/or NACK protocol to support HARQ operations. 
     At least one of the TX processor  368 , the RX processor  356 , and the controller/processor  359  may be configured to perform aspects in connection with  198  of  FIG. 1 . At least one of the TX processor  316 , the RX processor  370 , and the controller/processor  375  may be configured to perform aspects in connection with  199  of  FIG. 1 . 
       FIG. 4  illustrates an example of a wireless communications system  400  that supports ACK feedback for multiple active downlink SPS configurations. In some examples, wireless communications system  400  may implement aspects of wireless communications system  100 . Wireless communication system  400  may include a base station  102 / 180  and a UE  104 , which may be examples of corresponding base stations  102 / 180  and UEs  104 , respectively, as described above with reference to  FIG. 1 . In some cases, UE  104  and base station  102 / 180  may communicate via resources of different carriers (e.g., and/or component carriers) for uplink and/or downlink transmissions. 
     As described herein, UE  104  may support multiple configurations for respective downlink SPSs  405 , e.g., first SPS  405   a  and second SPS  405   b , to receive downlink messages from base station  102 / 180  and support a single PUCCH  410  (e.g., PUCCH carrier) to transmit uplink messages to base station  102 / 180  based on the messages received according to the SPSs  405 . For example, UE  104  may receive the downlink messages on PDSCHs  415  that occur at regular intervals (e.g., in numbers of slots  425 ) in each SPS  405 . As shown and as an illustrative example, base station  102 / 180  may configure a first SPS  405   a  with PDSCHs  415  that occur every fourth slot  425  and a second SPS  405   b  with PDSCHs  415  that occur every second slot  425 . While slots  425  are shown for each SPS  405 , it is to be understood that the SPSs  405  may include periodicities that occur at different length intervals (e.g., other TTIs, mini-slots, etc.). 
     In some cases, base station  102 / 180  may transmit a separate configuration (e.g., grant) for each SPS  405  (e.g., via RRC signaling). The configuration for each SPS  405  may include a periodicity for the downlink SPS  405  (e.g., an SPS downlink interval). For example, the periodicity may be 2 OFDM symbols, 7 OFDM symbols, one slot, 2 slots, 4 slots, 5 slots, 8 slots, 10 slots, 16 slots, 20 slots, 32 slots, 40 slots, 64 slots, 80 slots, 128 slots, 160 slots, 320 slots, 640 slots, etc. Additionally, the SPS configurations may indicate a number of configured processes (e.g., HARQ processes) for the SPS  405  (e.g., downlink SPS). In some cases, the number of configured processes may range from one to eight. In some cases, the SPS configurations may include resource(s) (e.g., HARQ resources) for PUCCH  410  for transmitting ACK messages (e.g., an ACK  420 ) for PDSCHs  415  in the corresponding SPS  405 . Accordingly, base station  102 / 180  (e.g., the network) may configure the resource(s) for PUCCH  410  in different formats (e.g., as format0, format1, etc.). 
     Accordingly, base station  102 / 180  may configure PUCCH  410  to carry ACKs  420  (e.g., HARQ ACK feedback messages, ACK feedback messages, ACK feedbacks, etc.) that UE  104  transmits for the PDSCHs  415 . For example, UE  104  may transmit ACKs  420  to indicate whether a corresponding PDSCH  415  was received and decoded successfully (e.g., an ACK if successfully received and decoded or a NACK if unsuccessfully received or decoded). In some cases, base station  102 / 180  may configure UE  104  to transmit an ACK  420  in a next occurring slot that a PDSCH  415  is transmitted to UE  104 . Additionally or alternatively, base station  102 / 180  may configure UE  104  to transmit an ACK  420  a number of slots (e.g., K1 slots) after a PDSCH  415  is transmitted to UE  104 . Accordingly, this number of slots may be an integer signaled in a DCI message that activates the SPS  405  for the PDSCH  415  transmissions. 
     For example, for first SPS  405   a , UE  104  may receive PDSCH  415   a  in a first slot  425  and PDSCH  415   b  in a fifth slot  425  and be configured to transmit ACK  420   a  in a second slot  425  occurring sequentially after the first slot  425  and ACK  420   d  in a sixth slot  425  occurring sequentially after fifth slot  425 . Additionally, for second SPS  405   b , UE  104  may receive PDSCH  415   c , PDSCH  415   d , PDSCH  415   e , and PDSCH  415   f  in the first slot  425 , a third slot  425 , the fifth slot  425 , and a seventh slot  425 , respectively. Accordingly, base station  102 / 180  may configure UE  104  to transmit ACK  420   b  in the second slot  425  for PDSCH  415   c  (e.g., sequentially occurring after the first slot  425 ), ACK  420   c  in a fourth slot  425  for PDSCH  415   d  (e.g., sequentially occurring after the third slot  425 ), ACK  420   e  in the sixth slot  425  for PDSCH  415   e  (e.g., sequentially occurring after the fifth slot  425 ), and ACK  420   f  in an eighth slot  425  for PDSCH  415   f  (e.g., sequentially occurring after the seventh slot  425 ). Additionally or alternatively, although not shown, ACKs  420  may occur in any subsequent slot  425  (e.g., or TTI according to an integer K1) after a PDSCH  415  is transmitted by base station  102 / 180  (e.g., not just a next occurring slot). 
     However, as can be seen, base station  102 / 180  may configure UE  104  to transmit more than one ACK  420  for multiple PDSCHs  415  in one or more slots  425  of PUCCH  410 . For example, PDSCH  415   a  of first SPS  405   a  and PDSCH  415   c  of second SPS  405   b  may include ACK  420   a  and ACK  420   b , respectively, in the second slot  425 , and/or PDSCH  415   b  of first SPS  405   a  and PDSCH  415   e  of second SPS  405   b  may include ACK  420   d  and ACK  420   e , respectively, in the sixth slot  425  of PUCCH  410 . In some cases, UE  104  may combine (e.g., multiplex) the ACKs  420  into a single ACK feedback message. 
     As described herein, base station  102 / 180  may configure one or more resources for PUCCH  410  (e.g., a PUCCH configuration) within a slot  425  (e.g., uplink slot) for a multiple downlink SPS ACK feedback (e.g., multi-DL-SPS-AN feedback). For example, each resource for PUCCH  410  may correspond to a given payload size or number of ACK information bits to be transmitted for the multiple ACKs  420  (e.g., one ACK information bit per ACK  420  for a corresponding received PDSCH  415 ). In some cases, UE  104  may determine which resource for PUCCH  410  (e.g., PUCCH resource) to use based on comparing the number of ACK information bits to transmit against a threshold value (e.g., a maximum payload size, such as two bits). Accordingly, if the number of ACK information bits is less than or equal to the threshold value (e.g., less than or equal to two bits), UE  104  may use a first PUCCH resource (e.g., PUCCH resource 0) for transmitting the corresponding ACKs  420 . Alternatively, if the number of ACK information bits is greater than the threshold value (e.g., greater than two bits), UE  104  may use a second PUCCH resource (e.g., PUCCH resource 1) for transmitting the corresponding ACKs  420 . 
     Base station  102 / 180  may transmit the indication of the PUCCH resources and the threshold value in a separate configuration message (e.g., grant) for transmitting multiple SPS ACK feedbacks than the configurations for each SPS  405 . Accordingly, each downlink configuration for each SPS  405  may still indicate a resource for PUCCH  410  (e.g., a PUCCH resource) to transmit an ACK  420  for the given SPS  405 . As such, if one PDSCH  415  is received within a slot  425 , UE  104  may use the PUCCH resource configured for the corresponding SPS  405  to transmit the ACK  420  for the one PDSCH  415  received. Additionally or alternatively, if multiple PDSCHs  415  are received within a slot  425 , then UE  104  may determine a PUCCH resource to use for transmitting the corresponding ACKs  420  based on the separate configuration message and the number of ACK information bits to be transmitted (e.g., a number of ACKs to transmit). In some cases, UE  104  may multiplex the multiple ACKs  420  into a single ACK feedback message (e.g., based on different codebooks). Additionally, a downlink SPS opportunity (e.g., to receive a corresponding PDSCH  415 ) may be cancelled and/or an ACK  420  may be delayed until a next available slot  425  based on symbols originally allocated for either transmission being unavailable for the corresponding transmission. 
     The above described techniques with reference to  FIG. 4  may be performed on TTIs with a different length than the illustrated slots  425 . For example, the downlink SPSs  405  may include a periodicity less than a slot (e.g., a sub-slot, mini-slot, or similar shorter TTI length instead of a slot  425 ). Accordingly, each slot  425  as shown in  FIG. 4  may represent a sub-slot or mini-slot (e.g., or similar shorter TTI length) rather than a slot length duration, and the ACKs  420  (e.g., ACK/NACK feedback), PUCCH resource determination for transmitting the ACKs  420  on PUCCH  410 , and counting of the number of ACK information bits (e.g., ACK/NACK information bits) for each ACK  420  may be performed for each sub-slot or mini-slot. 
       FIG. 5  illustrates an example of an ACK feedback configuration  500  that supports ACK feedback for multiple active downlink SPS configurations. In some examples, ACK feedback configuration  500  may implement aspects of wireless communications systems  100  and/or  400 . In some cases, a UE  104  may support multiple SPSs  305  for receiving downlink messages from a base station  102 / 180 , where each SPS  305  includes periodic opportunities for receiving PDSCHs  315  from the base station  102 / 180  at regular intervals in the SPS  305 . Additionally, the base station  102 / 180  may configure the UE  104  to transmit ACKs  320  on a PUCCH  510  for the corresponding PDSCHs  315 . Accordingly, UE  104  may use ACK feedback configuration  500  to determine which resources to use for transmitting the ACKs  320  on PUCCH  510  if multiple PDSCHs  315  are received within a same slot  525 . 
     As shown in  FIG. 5 , the base station  102 / 180  may configure the UE  104  with three SPSs  505 , each with different periodicities for receiving PDSCHs  515 . For example, for a first SPS  505   a , the UE  104  may receive a PDSCH  515   a  in a first slot  525  and a PDSCH  515   b  in a fifth slot  525 . Additionally, for a second SPS  505   b , the UE  104  may receive a PDSCH  515   c , PDSCH  515   d , PDSCH  515   e , and PDSCH  515   f  in the first slot  525 , a third slot  525 , the fifth slot  525 , and a seventh slot  525 , respectively. For a third SPS  505   c , the UE  104  may receive a PDSCH  515   g , PDSCH  515   h , PDSCH  515   i , PDSCH  515   j , PDSCH  515   k , PDSCH  515   l , PDSCH  515   m , and PDSCH  515   n  in each slot  525 . Additionally, the base station  102 / 180  may configure the UE  104  to transmit an ACK  520  on PUCCH  510  for the received PDSCHs  515  (e.g., to indicate whether the PDSCHs  515  are received and decoded correctly) on resources indicated in PUCCH  510  for each SPS  505 . 
     However, as described herein, multiple PDSCHs  515  may be received within a same slot  525 , which may affect how the UE  104  prepares the ACK  520 . For example, an ACK  520   a  may include ACKs for PDSCH  515   a  of first SPS  505   a , PDSCH  515   c  of second SPS  505   b , and PDSCH  515   g  of third SPS  505   c . Additionally, an ACK  520   c  may include ACKs for PDSCH  515   f  of second SPS  505   b  and for PDSCH  515   n  of third SPS  505   c . In some slots  525 , an ACK  520  may include an ACK for one PDSCH  515 . For example, an ACK  520   b  may include an ACK for PDSCH  515   j  of third SPS  505   c.    
     To accommodate the multiple PDSCHs  515  received within a slot  525 , the base station  102 / 180  may configure (e.g., via a PUCCH configuration) one or more PUCCH resources  530  (e.g., resources on PUCCH  510 ) within a slot  525  for the multiple received PDSCHs  515  for multiple SPSs  505  to transmit corresponding ACKs  520  (e.g., multiple downlink SPS ACK feedback). Each PUCCH resource may correspond to a number of ACK information bits to be transmitted (e.g., a given payload size). For example, a first PUCCH resource  530   a  (e.g., PUCCH resource 0) may be used for less than or equal to two ACK information bits (e.g., bits of feedback for an ACK  520 ), and a second PUCCH resource  530   b  (e.g., PUCCH resource 1) may be used for more than two ACK information bits (e.g., bits of feedback). In some cases, the different PUCCH resources  530  may be based on different PUCCH formats (e.g., format0 or format1) used for transmitting less than or equal to two ACK information bits and greater than two ACK information bits (e.g., payload bits, maximum payload size, etc.). This information of the different PUCCH formats for the different number of ACK information bits may be included as part of the PUCCH configuration for the multiple downlink SPS ACK feedback. Each SPS  505  (e.g., downlink SPS configuration) may still indicate one PUCCH resource  530  for the given SPS (e.g., SPS configured PUCCH resource  530   c ). In some cases, SPS configured PUCCH resource  530   c  for each SPS  505  (e.g., for SPS  505   c  as shown in  FIG. 5 ) may be absent, and the UE  104  may use the PUCCH resource configuration for the multiple downlink SP S ACK feedback to determine a PUCCH resource  530  to transmit the ACK  520  (e.g., ACK feedback). 
     In a given slot  525 , the UE  104  may determine how many ACKs  520  (e.g., HARQ ACK information bits) to generate for the SPSs  505 . If one ACK  520  is to be generated, then the UE  104  may use a PUCCH resource  530  configured in the corresponding SPS  505  configuration to transmit an ACK  520  (e.g., SPS configured PUCCH resource  530   c ). For example, in the fifth slot  525 , the UE  104  may transmit an ACK feedback message for PDSCH  515   j  of third SPS  505   c  and, therefore, may transmit ACK  520   b  based on the configuration for third SPS  505   c  using SPS configured PUCCH resource  530   c . Additionally or alternatively, the base station  102 / 180  may not configure a PUCCH resource for each SPS  505 . Accordingly, each SPS  505  may use a same one or more PUCCH resources as configured for the multiple downlink SPS ACK feedbacks. That is, if one PDSCH  515  transmission is present for a particular ACK feedback occasion for all of the configured SPSs  505 , the UE  104  may still use the one or more PUCCH resources configured for the multiple downlink SPS ACK feedbacks (e.g., first PUCCH resource  530   a , second PUCCH resource  530   b , etc.). 
     If more than one ACK  520  is to be generated, the UE  104  may first determine the payload size (e.g., the number of ACK information bits) and then select a PUCCH resource from the configured one or more PUCCH resources in the multiple downlink SPS ACK feedback configuration. For example, if two ACK information bits are utilized, the UE  104  may use first PUCCH resource  530   a  (e.g., PUCCH resource 0). As shown in  FIG. 5 , ACK  520   c  in eighth slot  525  may include two ACK information bits for PDSCH  515   f  of second SPS  505   b  and PDSCH  515   m  of third SPS  505   c , and, as such, the UE  104  may use first PUCCH resource  530   a  to transmit ACK  520   c . If more than two ACK information bits are utilized, then the UE  104  may use second PUCCH resource  530   b  (e.g., PUCCH resource 1). For example, as shown, ACK  520   a  may include three bits for PDSCH  515   a  of first SPS  505   a , PDSCH  515   c  of second SPS  505   b , and PDSCH  515   g  of third SPS  505   c , and, as such, the UE  104  may use second PUCCH resource  530   b  to transmit ACK  520   a.    
     In some cases, the UE  104  may use an ACK multiplexing to transmit the ACK  520  (e.g., if the UE  104  reports more than one ACK information bit in PUCCH  510  for the ACK  520 ). Accordingly, the UE  104  may determine the order of the ACK information bits in an ACK codebook for the ACK multiplexing based on different parameters associated with the SPSs  505 . For example, the UE  104  may determine the order based on a component carrier index (e.g., from low to high) of the corresponding SPSs  505 . In some cases, the UE  104  may use the component carrier indexes if one SPS  505  is activated per component carrier. Additionally or alternatively, the UE  104  may determine the order of ACK information bits based on SPS indexes (from low to high) for each SPS  505  (e.g., in case more than one SPS  505  is active per component carrier). In other cases, the UE  104  may determine the order of the ACK information bits based on a starting symbol (e.g., OFDM symbol) of the corresponding PDSCHs  515  (e.g., SPS transmissions) from earlier to later or an ending symbol of the corresponding PDSCHSs  515 . Accordingly, the UE  104  may base the order on which starting or ending symbol occurs earliest to the last received symbol. Additionally or alternatively, the UE  104  may base the ordering of the ACK information bits (e.g., SPS ACK/NACK bits) on a time at which the SPSs  505  are activated. For example, if first SPS  505   a  is activated at slot A (e.g., the second slot  525 ) and second SPS  505   b  is activated at slot B (e.g., the first slot  525 ) such that A&gt;B (e.g., SPS  505   a  is activated after SPS  505   b ), then the UE  104  may put an ACK information bit for a PDSCH  515  for first SPS  505   a  after an ACK information bit for second SPS  505   b.    
     The above described techniques with reference to  FIG. 5  may be performed on TTIs with a different length than the illustrated slots  525 . For example, the downlink SPSs  505  may include a periodicity less than a slot (e.g., a sub-slot, mini-slot, or similar shorter TTI length instead of a slot  525 ). Accordingly, each slot  525  as shown in  FIG. 5  may represent a sub-slot or mini-slot (e.g., or similar shorter TTI length) rather than a slot length duration, and the ACKs  520  (e.g., ACK/NACK feedback), PUCCH resource determination for transmitting the ACKs  520  on PUCCH  510 , and a counting of the number of ACK information bits (e.g., ACK/NACK information bits) for each ACK  520  may be performed for each sub-slot or mini-slot. 
       FIG. 6  illustrates an example of an ACK feedback delay configuration  600  that supports ACK feedback for multiple active downlink SPS configurations. In some examples, ACK feedback delay configuration  600  may implement aspects of wireless communications systems  100  and/or  400 . As described herein, a base station  102 / 180  may configure a UE  104  with an SPS  605  to receive one or more PDSCHs  615  transmitted at regular intervals, as well as with a PUCCH  610  to transmit ACKs  620  for the received PDSCHs  615 . As shown, SPS  605  may include a PDSCH  615  that is transmitted in each slot  625 . 
     In some cases, a given SPS opportunity for the base station  102 / 180  to transmit a PDSCH  615  in a slot  625  according to SPS  605  may be cancelled. For example, a TDD configuration of a slot  625  in SPS  605  may prevent the base station  102 / 180  from transmitting a PDSCH  615  or prevent the UE  104  from receiving the PDSCH  615 . For example, at least one symbol of the transmission occasion may be indicated as flexible (e.g., downlink or uplink) or uplink by an SFI, cancelling the PDSCH  615 . Additionally or alternatively, the UE  104  may be dynamically scheduled to transmit an uplink signal in at least one symbol initially configured for receiving a PDSCH  615 , thereby preventing the UE  104  from receiving the PDSCH  615 . In some cases, a dynamically scheduled PDSCH (e.g., transmitted via a DCI message) may occur on overlapping symbols of one or more of the configured PDSCHs  615  for the SPS  605 . Accordingly, the UE  104  may also cancel an ACK  620  transmission for this SPS occasion (e.g., no HARQ-ACK information is generated by the UE  104 ). For example, a PDSCH  615   d  in a fourth slot  625  and/or a PDSCH  615   h  in an eighth slot  625  may be cancelled (e.g., the base station  102 / 180  refrains from transmitting the PDSCH  615  or the UE  104  refrains from receiving and decoding the PDSCH  615 ) of the SPS  605 . As shown, the base station  102 / 180  may configure the UE  104  with a TDD configuration that includes a “DDDUDDDU” configuration of slots  625 , where D represents a downlink slot, and U represents an uplink slot. Accordingly, the fourth and eighth slots  625  may be uplink slots, and, hence, PDSCHs  615   d  and  615   h  may be cancelled based on the UE  104  being configured for uplink in the corresponding slots  625  (e.g., along with cancelling the corresponding ACK feedback). 
     Additionally or alternatively, in a TDD system, after determining an ACK codebook as described above with reference to  FIG. 5 , the UE  104  may determine that a corresponding PUCCH resource cannot be transmitted. For example, the UE  104  may identify a TDD restriction (e.g., some symbols cannot be used to transmit an uplink signal) to prevent the UE  104  from transmitting an ACK  620  in a configured slot  625  for a received PDSCH  615  in the SPS  605 . As shown, the base station  102 / 180  may configure the UE  104  with a TDD configuration that includes a “DDDUDDDU” configuration of slots  625 , where D represents a downlink slot, and U represents an uplink slot, as described above. Therefore, the second and third slots  625  as shown in  FIG. 6  may be downlink slots and cannot be used to transmit the ACK feedback (e.g., ACKs  620 ) for a PDSCHs  615   a  and  615   b , respectively. Similarly, the sixth and seventh slot  625  as shown in  FIG. 6  may also be downlink slots and cannot be used to transmit ACK feedback (e.g., ACKs  620 ) for PDSCHs  615   e  and  615   f , respectively. 
     Accordingly, the ACK  620  may be delayed to a next available slot  625 . In this next available slot  625 , the UE  104  may multiplex the delayed ACK(s)  620  with an ACK  620  originally configured and scheduled to be transmitted in this slot  625 . For example, an ACK  620  for a PDSCH  615   a  and an ACK  620  for a PDSCH  615   b  may not be transmitted by the UE  104  due to a conflict or restriction. Accordingly, the UE  104  may then multiplex the cancelled ACKs  620  for PDSCHs  615   a  and  615   b  with an ACK  620  for a PDSCH  615   c  originally scheduled for a fourth slot  625  and transmit a combined ACK  620   a  for PDSCH  615   a , PDSCH  615   b , and PDSCH  615   c . The UE  104  may follow the same process for transmitting a combined ACK  620   b  for a PDSCH  615   e  and PDSCH  615   f  that have cancelled ACKs  620  and for a PDSCH  615   g  originally scheduled with an ACK  620  in the eighth slot  625 . 
     Accordingly, the UE  104  may determine a PUCCH resource for transmitting the multiplexed codebook using techniques as described above with reference to  FIG. 5 . For example, the UE  104  first determine a payload size for an ACK  620  (e.g., a number of ACK information bits, a total payload size, etc.) and then determine the PUCCH resource from a configuration for a multiple downlink SPS ACK feedback based on the payload size. For example, as described above with reference to  FIG. 5 , a first PUCCH resource  530   a  and a second PUCCH resource  530   b  may be configured for transmitting ACK feedback based on the number of ACK information bits to be transmitted. As shown, since the ACKs  620  include ACK information bits for three PDSCHs  615 , the UE  104  may determine to use the second PUCCH resource  530   b  based on the number of ACK information bits exceeding two bits. In some cases, the base station  102 / 180  may, in addition, configure a number that indicates a maximum number of slots  625  that an ACK  620  can be delayed. Accordingly, if the ACK  620  (e.g., HARQ-ACK feedback) is delayed more than this number of slots  625 , then the UE  104  may discard the corresponding ACK  620 . This number of slots limitation may be a mechanism to limit the number of bits on each transmission on PUCCH  610 . In some cases, the base station  102 / 180  may include this number of slots limitation in the configuration for the multiple downlink SP S ACK feedback. 
     The above described techniques with reference to  FIG. 6  may be performed on TTIs with a different length than the illustrated slots  625 . For example, the downlink SPSs  605  may include a periodicity less than a slot (e.g., a sub-slot, mini-slot, or similar shorter TTI length instead of a slot  625 ). Accordingly, each slot  625  as shown in  FIG. 6  may represent a sub-slot or mini-slot (e.g., or similar shorter TTI length) rather than a slot length duration, and the ACKs  620  (e.g., ACK/NACK feedback), PUCCH resource determination for transmitting the ACKs  620  on PUCCH  610 , and counting of the number of ACK information bits (e.g., ACK/NACK information bits) for each ACK  620  may be performed for each sub-slot or mini-slot. 
     As described above, in a TDD configuration, if a slot scheduled for reporting the HARQ-ACK for the SPS is a downlink slot or overlaps with at least one downlink symbol, the UE may not transmit the HARQ-ACK report. This may result in a waste of system resources, since the base station may retransmit the SPS PDSCH due to the missed HARQ-ACK report. 
     A downlink slot (or sub-slot) or symbol may be semi-statically configured to be downlink, or may be converted to downlink or flexible (dynamic) from flexible (semi-static) by a dynamic SFI or dynamic DCI (e.g., a downlink grant scheduling a PDSCH, or a grant scheduling aperiodic CSI-RS transmissions). A flexible (semi-static) slot (or sub-slot) or symbol may be converted to uplink, downlink, or flexible (dynamic) through an SFI or DCI. 
     A HARQ-ACK feedback for an SPS PDSCH that conflicts with a downlink slot or symbol may be delayed, and may be transmitted at later uplink slots (or sub-slots) or symbols. In one aspect, the HARQ-ACK feedback may be deferred until the next (e.g., the first) available PUCCH. It may be beneficial to provide techniques for finding the first available uplink slot, which may not be straightforward when the uplink symbols may not match the configured PUCCH resources. 
       FIG. 7  is a diagram illustrating an example communication flow  700  according to aspects. The UE  702  and the base station  704  may correspond to the UE  104  and the base station  102 / 180  in  FIG. 1 , respectively. At  706 , the base station  704  may transmit to the UE  702 , and the UE  702  may receive from the base station  704 , an indication of a plurality of PUCCH resources. The plurality of PUCCH resources may be, for example, multi-DL-SPS-AN PUCCH resources. In one aspect, the plurality of PUCCH resources may include four PUCCH resources. 
     At  708 , the UE  702  may identify the plurality of PUCCH resources based on the indication received at  706 . 
     At  710 , the base station  704  may transmit to the UE  702 , and the UE  702  may receive from the base station  704 , an ordered symbol offset set. The ordered symbol offset set may be transmitted or configured with RRC signaling or with a media access control (MAC)-control element (CE) (MAC-CE), or may be dynamically provided in DCI. In one aspect, the ordered symbol offset set may initially be configured with RRC signaling, and then may be dynamically updated with the MAC-CE. The use of the ordered symbol offset set may be explained in further detail below. 
     At  712 , the base station  704  may transmit to the UE  702 , and the UE  702  may receive from the base station  704 , one or more PDSCHs (e.g., according to one or more SPSs). 
     In one aspect, at  714 , the UE  702  may detect a PUCCH transmission collision associated with one or more HARQ-ACK reports associated with the PDSCHs received at  712 . A PUCCH transmission collision may occur in a TDD configuration when, for example, a slot configured for the PUCCH resource is a downlink slot. 
     Alternatively, at  716 , the base station  704  may detect a PUCCH transmission collision associated with one or more HARQ-ACK reports associated with the PDSCHs received at  712 , and may transmit an indication of the PUCCH transmission collision to the UE  702  at  718 . Accordingly, the UE may receive the indication of the PUCCH transmission collision from the base station  704  at  718 . In either case, the UE may become aware of the PUCCH transmission collision. 
     At  720 , the UE  720  may determine the payload threshold. The payload threshold (e.g., the payload size) may be a number of bits to be included in the combined HARQ-ACK report that may be generated by multiplexing the deferred and accumulated HARQ-ACK reports up to the uplink slot in question. For example, in  FIG. 6 , the payload threshold for the fourth slot may be the number of bits to be included in the combined HARQ-ACK report to be transmitted in this slot. The combined HARQ-ACK report to be transmitted in the fourth slot may be generated by multiplexing the deferred and accumulated HARQ-ACK reports that correspond to the PDSCHs  615   a ,  615   b ,  615   c  (i.e., the PDSCHs transmitted in the first, the second, and the third slots). 
     The plurality of PUCCH resources indicated at  706  may be classified into first PUCCH resources, second PUCCH resource, and third PUCCH resources. There may be zero, one, or more first, second, or third PUCCH resources. The payload capacity of a first PUCCH resources may be equal to the payload threshold (e.g., the payload size). The payload capacity of a second PUCCH resources may be greater than the payload threshold (e.g., the payload size). The payload capacity of a third PUCCH resources may be less than the payload threshold (e.g., the payload size). 
     For example, if the UE  702  has accumulated 4 bits worth of HARQ-ACK information (i.e., the payload threshold/size may be 4 bits), and four PUCCH resources indicated at  706  PR 0 , PR 1 , PR 2 , and PR 3  support 2 bits, 4 bits, 10 bits, and 15 bits, respectively (i.e., the payload capacities of PR 0 , PR 1 , PR 2 , and PR 3  are 2 bits, 4 bits, 10 bits, and 15 bits, respectively), PR 1  may be a first PUCCH resource (because its payload capacity is equal to the payload threshold/size); PR 2  and PR 3  may be second PUCCH resources (because their respective payload capacity is greater than the payload threshold/size); and PR 0  may be a third PUCCH resource (because its payload capacity is less than the payload threshold/size). 
     At  722 , the UE  702  may determine whether one or more first PUCCH resources, one or more second PUCCH resources, or one or more third PUCCH resources of a plurality of PUCCH resources are suitable for at least one uplink transmission. A PUCCH resource may be suitable for the uplink transmission if the symbol pattern (e.g., uplink, downlink, or flexible) of the slot in question is compatible with the PUCCH resource. For example, if a PUCCH resource is configured to have symbol 7 as the starting symbol and include four symbols, and the symbols 7-10 of the slot in question are configured as uplink symbols (i.e., a UUUU configuration for symbols 7-10), then the PUCCH resource may be suitable for the uplink transmission. On the other hand, if any of the symbols 7-10 of the slot in question are not configured as an uplink symbol (e.g., as a downlink symbol or as a flexible symbol instead), the symbol pattern may be incompatible with the PUCCH resource, and the PUCCH resource may not be suitable for the uplink transmission. 
     Among the first, the second, and the third PUCCH resources, the UE  702  may first attempt, at  722   a , to select at least one first PUCCH resource to transmit the combined HARQ-ACK report. The selected at least one first PUCCH resource may be suitable for the uplink transmission for the combined HARQ-ACK report. 
     If none of the first PUCCH resources is suitable for the uplink transmission, at  722   b , the UE  702  may then attempt to select at least one second PUCCH resource to transmit the combined HARQ-ACK report. The selected at least one second PUCCH resource may be suitable for the uplink transmission for the combined HARQ-ACK report. When there is more than one second PUCCH resource, the UE  702  may attempt the selection in an order based on the difference between the payload capacity of the second PUCCH resource and the payload threshold/size (from small to large). For example, in the example above with two second PUCCH resources PR 2  and PR 3 , the UE  702  may attempt to select PR 2  first, before attempting to select PR 3  in the event PR 2  may not be suitable for the uplink transmission, as the difference between the payload capacity and the payload threshold/size is 6 bits for PR 2 , which is smaller than the difference of 11 bits for PR 3 . 
     If none of the first or the second PUCCH resources is suitable for the uplink transmission, at  722   c , the UE  702  may then attempt to select at least one third PUCCH resource to transmit the combined HARQ-ACK report. The selected at least one third PUCCH resource may be suitable for the uplink transmission for the combined HARQ-ACK report. When there is more than one third PUCCH resource, the UE  702  may attempt the selection in an order based on the difference between the payload capacity of the third PUCCH resource and the payload threshold/size (from small to large). More than one third PUCCH resource may be selected because a single third PUCCH resource may not be able to accommodate all the information from the deferred and accumulated HARQ-ACK reports. 
     Based on the selection, at  724 , the UE  702  may transmit to the base station  704 , and the base station  704  may receive from the UE  702 , the uplink transmission (which may include the combined HARQ-ACK report). If at least one first PUCCH resource is selected at  722   a , the transmission at  724  may be via the selected at least one of the first PUCCH resources  724   a . If at least one second PUCCH resource is selected at  722   b , the transmission at  724  may be via the selected at least one of the second PUCCH resources  724   b . Further, if at least one third PUCCH resource is selected at  722   c , the transmission at  724  may be via the selected at least one of the third PUCCH resources  724   c.    
     If none of the first, the second, or the second PUCCH resources is suitable for the uplink transmission, in one aspect, a symbol offset may be applied to all the indicated PUCCH resources including all the first, the second, and the third PUCCH resources. Applying a symbol offset to a PUCCH resource may include shifting the starting OFDM symbol of the PUCCH resource by the symbol offset and leaving intact the number of symbols included in the PUCCH resource. For example, applying a symbol offset of −1 to a PUCCH resource spanning symbols 7-10 (i.e., the PUCCH resource has a starting symbol of symbol 7, and includes four symbols) may change the location of the PUCCH resource in time such that the shifted PUCCH resource may span symbols 6-9 (i.e., the shifted PUCCH resource has a starting symbol of symbol 6=7−1, and still includes four symbols). 
     After applying the symbol offset, the UE  702  may attempt to select at least one of the first, the second, or the third shifted PUCCH resources by going through  722  (including  722   a ,  722   b ,  722   c ) again, where the UE  702  may attempt to select at least one first, second, or third shifted PUCCH resource that may be suitable for the uplink transmission. If at least one first, second, or third shifted PUCCH resource suitable for the uplink transmission is selected at  722  ( 722   a ,  722   b , or  722   c ), based on the selection, at  724 , the UE  702  may transmit to the base station  704 , and the base station  704  may receive from the UE  702 , the uplink transmission (which may include the combined HARQ-ACK report) via at least one of the first, the second, or the third shifted PUCCH resources  724   a ,  724   b , or  724   c.    
     The symbol offset may be obtained from the ordered symbol offset set received at  710 . The ordered symbol offset set may include a plurality of symbol offsets arranged in a particular order. The UE  702  may apply the symbol offsets in the symbol offset set sequentially, one at a time, in the specified order. With each symbol offset, the UE  702  may attempt to select at least one first, second, or third shifted PUCCH resource that may be suitable for the uplink transmission, in the same order as described above at  722  ( 722   a ,  722   b ,  722   c ). The UE  702  may proceed to the next symbol offset in the ordered symbol offset set when none of the first, the second, or the third PUCCH resources shifted based on the last symbol offset is suitable for the uplink transmission. 
       FIG. 8  is a diagram  800  illustrating the application of symbol offsets according to aspects. The PUCCH resource may have a starting symbol of symbol 7, and may span four symbols (i.e., symbols 7-10). Without applying any symbol offset, the PUCCH resource may not be suitable for the uplink transmission because symbols 7-10 of this slot is configured as DUUU, and accordingly, there may be an incompatibility at symbol 7. Assuming the base station  704  indicates a single PUCCH resource at  706 , and the ordered symbol offset set transmitted at  710  is {−1, −2, −3, 1, 2, 3}, the UE  702  may apply the symbol offsets in the ordered symbol offset set in the specified order, one at a time, to look for and select a shifted PUCCH resource suitable for the uplink transmission. Due to the same incompatibility at symbol 7, which is configured as a downlink symbol, symbol offsets −1, −2, and −3 may not render the shifted PUCCH resource suitable for the uplink transmission. Subsequent to applying the symbol offset of −3 without being able to select a shifted PUCCH resource, the UE  702  may proceed to the symbol offset of 1. Applying the symbol offset of 1 may render the shifted PUCCH resource suitable for the uplink transmission, because the shifted PUCCH resource where the symbol offset is 1 may span symbols 8-11, which as shown are configured as UUUU and therefore may be compatible with the shifted PUCCH resource. Accordingly, the UE  702  may select the shifted PUCCH resource with the symbol offset 1. 
     Referring back to  FIG. 7 , at  710 , the base station  704  may transmit the ordered symbol offset set in a number of ways. In one aspect, the base station  704  may transmit the ordered symbol offset set explicitly. For example, the ordered symbol offset set transmitted may be {−1, −2, −3, 1, 2, 3}, {−1, −3, 1, 3}, or {2, 3, −1, −5}, etc., in different examples. In another aspect, the base station  704  may transmit the ordered symbol offset by transmitting a symbol offset sweep range (i.e., a minimum symbol offset and a maximum symbol offset), a sweep direction (i.e., from the minimum to the maximum, or from the maximum to the minimum), and a step size (r). For example, the base station  704  may transmit a symbol offset sweep range of −4 to 5, a sweep direction of minimum to maximum, and a step size of 3. This is equivalent to explicitly transmitting the ordered set {−4, −1, 2, 5}. 
     If none of the first, the second, or the third (shifted) PUCCH resources is suitable for the uplink transmission, either with or without the application of symbol offsets, at  726 , the UE  702  may select none of the first, the second, or the third PUCCH resources. 
     If none of the first, the second, or the third PUCCH resources is selected, in one aspect, at  728 , the UE  702  may transmit to the base station  704 , and the base station  704  may receive from the UE  702 , the uplink transmission (which may include the combined HARQ-ACK report) via one or more demodulation reference signal (DMRS)-less (i.e., the UE  702  may refrain from transmitting the corresponding DMRS) non-coherent sequence-based transmissions across available uplink symbols in one or more locations indicated by one or more of the plurality of PUCCH resources. The technique may not be used if there is no available uplink symbol in the locations indicated by the plurality of PUCCH resources. Examples of the sequence-based transmissions may include discrete Fourier transform (DFT) sequences, a golden code, Reed-Solomon sequences, etc. The sequence used may be selected based on the underlying information bits (e.g., for the HARQ-ACK report) to be transmitted. 
     If none of the first, the second, or the third PUCCH resources is selected, in another aspect, the UE  702  may further defer the HARQ-ACK reports to the next available slot with the same number of uplink OFDM symbols. The combined HARQ-ACK report may be deferred until a slot with the same number of OFDM symbols within the uplink limits can be found. However, disadvantageously a severe delay between the PDSCH and the corresponding HARQ-ACK report may be possible. 
       FIG. 9  is a flowchart  900  of a method of wireless communication. The method may be performed by a UE (e.g., the UE  104 / 702 ; the apparatus  1102 ).

In one configuration, the at least one of the one or more first PUCCH resources, the one or more second PUCCH resources, or the one or more third PUCCH resources may be based on a symbol offset of a starting symbol for each of the one or more first PUCCH resources, the one or more second PUCCH resources, or the one or more third PUCCH resources when none of the one or more first PUCCH resources, the one or more second PUCCH resources, or the one or more third PUCCH resources is suitable for the at least one uplink transmission without any symbol offset. In one configuration, the starting symbol for each of the one or more first PUCCH resources, the one or more second PUCCH resources, or the one or more third PUCCH resources may be shifted by the symbol offset. In one configuration, the symbol offset may be included in an ordered symbol offset set including a plurality of symbol offsets, the ordered symbol offset set being transmitted to the UE. In one configuration, at least some of the plurality of symbol offsets may be individually and sequentially attempted. In one configuration, one of the plurality of symbol offsets may be attempted when none of the one or more first PUCCH resources, the one or more second PUCCH resources, or the one or more third PUCCH resources is suitable for the at least one uplink transmission when a previous one of the plurality of symbol offsets is attempted. The apparatus  1202  may further include means for receiving the at least one uplink transmission via one or more non-coherent sequence-based transmissions across one or more available uplink symbols when none of the one or more first PUCCH resources, the one or more second PUCCH resources, or the one or more third PUCCH resources is suitable for the at least one uplink transmission. 
     The aforementioned means may be one or more of the aforementioned components of the apparatus  1202  configured to perform the functions recited by the aforementioned means. As described supra, the apparatus  1202  may include the TX Processor  316 , the RX Processor  370 , and the controller/processor  375 . As such, in one configuration, the aforementioned means may be the TX Processor  316 , the RX Processor  370 , and the controller/processor  375  configured to perform the functions recited by the aforementioned means. 
     Aspects relate to techniques for finding the first available uplink slot for the transmission of a combined HARQ-ACK report in a TDD configuration, which may not be straightforward when the uplink symbols may not match the configured PUCCH resources. In one aspect, the configured PUCCH resources may be shifted in the time domain so that one or more PUCCHs carrying the combined HARQ-ACK report may be transmitted given a symbol pattern in the slot. Accordingly, a severe delay between PDSCHs and the corresponding combined HARQ-ACK report may be avoided. 
     It is understood that the specific order or hierarchy of blocks in the processes/flowcharts disclosed is an illustration of example approaches. Based upon design preferences, it is understood that the specific order or hierarchy of blocks in the processes/flowcharts may be rearranged. Further, some blocks may be combined or omitted. The accompanying method claims present elements of the various blocks in a sample order, and are not meant to be limited to the specific order or hierarchy presented. 
     The previous description is provided to enable any person skilled in the art to practice the various aspects described herein. Various modifications to these aspects will be readily apparent to those skilled in the art, and the generic principles defined herein may be applied to other aspects. Thus, the claims are not intended to be limited to the aspects shown herein, but is to be accorded the full scope consistent with the language claims, wherein reference to an element in the singular is not intended to mean “one and only one” unless specifically so stated, but rather “one or more.” Terms such as “if,” “when,” and “while” should be interpreted to mean “under the condition that” rather than imply an immediate temporal relationship or reaction. That is, these phrases, e.g., “when,” do not imply an immediate action in response to or during the occurrence of an action, but simply imply that if a condition is met then an action will occur, but without requiring a specific or immediate time constraint for the action to occur. The word “exemplary” is used herein to mean “serving as an example, instance, or illustration.” Any aspect described herein as “exemplary” is not necessarily to be construed as preferred or advantageous over other aspects. Unless specifically stated otherwise, the term “some” refers to one or more. Combinations such as “at least one of A, B, or C,” “one or more of A, B, or C,” “at least one of A, B, and C,” “one or more of A, B, and C,” and “A, B, C, or any combination thereof” include any combination of A, B, and/or C, and may include multiples of A, multiples of B, or multiples of C. Specifically, combinations such as “at least one of A, B, or C,” “one or more of A, B, or C,” “at least one of A, B, and C,” “one or more of A, B, and C,” and “A, B, C, or any combination thereof” may be A only, B only, C only, A and B, A and C, B and C, or A and B and C, where any such combinations may contain one or more member or members of A, B, or C. All structural and functional equivalents to the elements of the various aspects described throughout this disclosure that are known or later come to be known to those of ordinary skill in the art are expressly incorporated herein by reference and are intended to be encompassed by the claims. Moreover, nothing disclosed herein is intended to be dedicated to the public regardless of whether such disclosure is explicitly recited in the claims. The words “module,” “mechanism,” “element,” “device,” and the like may not be a substitute for the word “means.” As such, no claim element is to be construed as a means plus function unless the element is expressly recited using the phrase “means for.”
