An approach is described for an access node configured for ultra-reliable and low latency (URLLC) transmission using multi-transmission reception point (TRP) to a UE. The access node includes processor circuitry and radio front end circuitry. The processor circuitry is configured to allocate resource blocks into a first portion and a second portion based on a resource indication value (RIV), a length of contiguously allocated resource blocks (LRBS) and a fraction. The radio front end circuitry is configured to transmit the first portion to the UE via a first transmission reception point (TRP1), and transmit the second portion to the UE via a second transmission reception point (TRP2).
