Abstract: Some aspects of this disclosure relate to apparatuses and methods for implementing techniques for a user equipment (UE) to transmit a configured grant (CG) physical uplink shared channel (PUSCH) including an uplink control information (UCI) without transmitting a physical uplink control channel (PUCCH). The UE determines, based on a configuration received from the base station, a first set of CG PUSCHs. Each CG PUSCH of the first set of CG PUSCHs overlaps with the PUCCH, and is configured to transmit data from the UE to the base station. The UE further determines a second set of CG PUSCHs by excluding a third set of CG PUSCHs from the first set of CG PUSCHs. and select a CG PUSCH from the second set of CG PUSCHs to carry the UCI contained in the PUCCH. The UE further transmits the selected CG PUSCH including the UCI without transmitting the PUCCH.

Abstract: Features for increasing sounding reference signal (SRS) resource capacity for wireless communications may include introducing a larger comb size with comb hopping, providing support to determine the slot offset and/or comb offset for aperiodic SRS based on downlink control information (DCI) alone or based on both DCI and radio resource control (RRC), applying RB level frequency hopping within an SRS resource across different symbols, and/or applying time domain orthogonal cover code (TD-OCC) to symbols within an SRS resource. The TD-OCC may be applied to SRS for codebook, non-codebook and antenna switching, and may also be applied simultaneously with comb hopping and/or RB level hopping in certain scenarios.
