A method, comprising: receiving, from a network, a configuration with at least one time offset to account for at least one delay on switching from one transmit beam to another transmit beam, wherein the configuration defines at least one rule applicable to the at least one time offset; determining a need for the at least one time offset between consecutive repetitions based on the configuration and a use of transmit beams for the consecutive repetitions, wherein the consecutive repetitions correspond to actual physical uplink shared channel repetitions; and applying, based on the determination, the at least one time offset between the consecutive repetitions, wherein a time domain allocation of at least one repetition of the consecutive repetitions is changed to accommodate the at least one time offset, wherein the at least one time offset between two consecutive repetitions is applied only based on the determination of a need for the at least one time offset and when each repetition is associated with a different transmit beam, and wherein for pairs of consecutive actual physical uplink shared channel repetitions for which the at least one time offset is required, the method further comprises: muting at least one symbol that overlaps with a corresponding at least one time offset, wherein the at least one time offset is applied from a last symbol of an earlier actual physical uplink shared channel repetition of a pair of consecutive actual physical uplink shared channel repetitions, muting at least one symbol from each actual physical uplink shared channel repetition of a pair of consecutive actual physical uplink shared channel repetitions to facilitate at least one time offset between repetitions, muting at least one symbol from the actual physical uplink shared channel repetition of a pair of consecutive actual physical uplink shared channel repetitions with a lower or larger number of symbols, or muting at least one symbol from at least one actual physical uplink shared channel repetition of a pair of consecutive actual physical uplink shared channel repetitions by muting symbols in an even manner between the actual physical uplink shared channel repetitions. receiving, from a network, a configuration with at least one time offset to account for at least one delay on switching from one transmit beam to another transmit beam, wherein the configuration defines at least one rule applicable to the at least one time offset;
