    Abstract: Methods, apparatuses, and computer programs for NR PUCCH coverage extension are disclosed. A plurality of slots to be allocated for a user equipment may be determined by a base station. One or more control data blocks in one or more of the slots may be mapped to at least one of: a short physical uplink control channel and a long physical uplink control channel based on a type of the one or more slots, wherein the type of the slots includes one of: an uplink-only slot; a bi-directional, uplink slot; and a bi-directional, downlink slot. The plurality of slots may be allocated to the user equipment, and uplink control information on the one or more control data blocks may be received from the user equipment.
