Abstract:
Systems and methods for transmission of PDSCH and HARQ-ACK feedback in 5G networks are described. The TDRA of PDSCH repetitions are indicated in a DCI by a SLIV sequence configuration that contains multiple SLIV sequences. Each SLIV sequence for a slot is associated with an independent repetition factor and may also be associated with a partition factor to indicate a partition within the slot. One or more TRPs may be used to transmit each PDSCH repetition. The TCI states are mapped to the PDSCH repetitions in a round-robin fashion using an offset in terms of number of PDSCH repetitions from where TCI state switching starts and a number of consecutive PDSCH repetitions per TCI state. The HARQ-ACK bits in response to the PDSCH from the TRPs are concatenated in order of increasing control resource set higher layer signaling index.
