Embodiment 3-2: In one embodiment, PHR cut-off time may be determined at the starting/ending time of the LCP of the PUSCH corresponding to reception time of the first/earliest UL DCI for initial transmission of a transport block after the PHR trigger. If, by that time instance, no new further UL DCI for initial transmission of a transport block is received or some new UL DCI for initial transmission is received but they schedule initial PUSCH transmission occasions that occur later than the PUSCH transmission occasion corresponding to the first UL DCI, then the UE sets the PHR cut-off time as in Rel-15 (i.e., the reception time of the first/earliest UL DCI for initial transmission of a transport block after the PHR trigger). However, if, by that time instance, a new further UL DCI is received that schedules an initial PUSCH transmission occasion that occurs earlier than the PUSCH transmission occasion corresponding to the first/earliest UL DCI, then the earlier PUSCH can be used for
PHR transmission and the reception time of the corresponding UL DCI can be used as the PHR cut-off time. In the case of multiple such earlier transmission occasions, the UE uses the earliest PUSCH transmission occasion, and sets the PHR cut-off time based on the reception time of the corresponding UL DCI. (All provided there is no earlier configured grant PUSCH transmission).
Transmitting Multiple PHRs
Embodiment 4: In one embodiment, the UE is allowed to report two/multiple PHRs for an out-of-order scheduling occasion in the case of a new PHR trigger, as described in the following:
