The WTRU may be configured to transmit based on HARQ-ACK feedback to be reported for the downlink signals one or more of a first sequence of the set of sequences using the second time and frequency resources, a second sequence of the set of sequences using the second time and frequency resources, or at least one indication of an acknowledgment and at least one indication of a negative acknowledgment using the first time and frequency resources.

Abstract: A wireless transmit/receive unit (WTRU) may include a transceiver and a processor. The WTRU may be configured to receive one or more downlink signals. The WTRU may be configured to receive configuration information indicating time and frequency resources for transmission of hybrid automatic repeat request (HARQ) acknowledgement (ACK). The configuration information may indicate a first sequence. The WTRU may be configured to determine a set of sequences to be used in response to the receipt of the one or more downlink signals. The set of sequences may be determined based on the indicated first sequence. The WTRU may be configured to send a second sequence from the set of sequences in the time and frequency resources to indicate HARQ-ACK. The second sequence may be selected based on a number of physical downlink control channel (PDCCH) monitoring occasions associated with the indicated HARQ-ACK.

Abstract: A method of operating an articulatable surgical instrument. The method includes providing a rotary drive motion to a rotary drive member of a surgical end effector and converting the rotary drive motion to an upper axial motion and a lower axial motion at locations that are distal to the articulation joint. The method further includes applying the upper axial motion to an upper portion of a firing member and applying the lower axial motion to a lower portion of the firing member such that the upper axial motion and lower axial motion drives the firing member distally through the surgical end effector from a starting position to an ending position.

Abstract: A wireless transmit receive unit (WTRU) may receive physical uplink control channel (PUCCH) configuration information, SBFD configuration information, and DCI comprising a first PRI. The WTRU may determine that a PUCCH transmission is to be sent. The WTRU may determine, based on a first rule of interpreting the first PRI and the PUCCH configuration information, that a first PUCCH resource indicated by the first PRI is included in at least one frequency resource that is at least partially included in at least one subband for uplink (UL) transmission and one subband for downlink reception indicated by the SBFD configuration information. The WTRU may determine a second PUCCH resource, which may be determined based on a second rule for interpreting the first PRI and the PUCCH configuration information. The second PUCCH resource may be within subbands for UL transmission. The WTRU may transmit the PUCCH transmission using the second frequency resource.
