METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR LONG PUCCH DESIGN FOR SLOTS WITH VARYING DURATION OF UPLINK AND FOR DYNAMIC TIME DIVISION DUPLEXING

摘要

Techniques for dynamically controlling long physical uplink control channel (PUCCH) transmission are described. In an aspect, the disclosure describes a method for receiving a grant to transmit a long PUCCH, determining a grant type of the grant, wherein the grant type is one of a periodic grant or an aperiodic grant, determining a slot type of the slot to transmit the long PUCCH, and transmitting the long PUCCH over one or more slots based on the grant, the determined slot type, and the determined grant type. In another aspect, the disclosure describes a method for generating a triggering signal to transmit to a user equipment (UE), the triggering signal indicating to the UE to transmit a PUCCH, transmitting the triggering signal to the UE, and receiving the long PUCCH in response to the triggering signal.
