The first time domain range is related to a time domain position of a physical uplink control channel (PUCCH) including the scheduling request, and the first uplink channel is any one of, a PUCCH including a hybrid automatic repeat request (HARQ) feedback, a PUCCH including a channel state information (CSI) report, or a physical uplink shared channel (PUSCH).
