Abstract:
A base station may access a channel following a successful channel access procedure. The base station may transmit an indication of a resource allocation to a user equipment (UE). The resource allocation may include an allocation of resources for subsequent communications between the base station and the UE, for example, defining a set of transmission time intervals (TTIs) during which the UE may transmit repetitions of uplink control information. The UE may also perform a channel access procedure to access the channel. The UE may transmit repetitions of the uplink control information using the set of TTIs according to the resource configuration. In some cases, the UE may stop transmitting uplink control information repetitions after a maximum number repetitions also according to the resource configuration. The base station may then receive and combine the uplink control information.
