Abstract: An apparatus and system for deferring hybrid automatic repeat request (HARQ) feedback for semi-persistent scheduling (SPS) physical downlink shared channel (PDSCH) transmissions in a time-domain duplexing (TDD) system are described. After an SPS PDSCH configuration indicating that deferral of the SPS HARQ feedback is enabled is received, a user equipment (UE) determines whether a PUCCH associated with a particular SPS PDSCH transmission is able to be transmitted on valid uplink (UL) symbols. The PUCCH carries a SPS HARQ-ACK bits to acknowledge the particular SPS PDSCH transmission. If the PUCCH is unable to be transmitted using the timing of the SPS PDSCH configuration, the transmission is deferred until the next valid occasion on which the PUCCH is able to be transmitted.

Abstract: A user equipment (UE) configured for Hybrid Automatic Repeat Request Acknowledgement (HARQ-ACK) codebook determination in a fifth-generation (5G) new radio (NR) network may decode a downlink control information (DCI) format received from a generation Node B (gNB). When the DCI format triggers HARQ-ACK codebook retransmission, the UE may determine a HARQ-ACK codebook to be retransmitted based on a time-offset indicated in the DCI format. To determine the HARQ-ACK codebook to be retransmitted, the UE may determine an uplink (UL) slot that included an initial transmission of the HARQ-ACK codebook based on subtracting the time-offset from the DL slot that included the DCI. The UE may also encode a physical uplink control channel (PUCCH) to include the HARQ-ACK codebook determined to be retransmitted in a UL slot based on a slot offset.

The RedCap UE may determine whether to drop the UL SRS transmission based on priority rules when any one or more symbols of the UL SRS transmission would collide with an uplink channel transmission including a switching time for switching to or from an active bandwidth part. When the UL SRS transmission is determined to be dropped, the RedCap UE may drop the one or more symbols of the UL SRS transmission that would collide and may transmit any symbols of the UL SRS transmission that do not collide with the uplink channel transmission. The RedCap UE may be a half-duplex (HD) frequency division duplex (FDD) RedCap UE and may perform transmit frequency hopping over a bandwidth that is larger than a maximum bandwidth of the RedCap UE.
