iii. As another example, the symbol index E may be indicated as one of the following: 1) the symbol index S, 2) a symbol index S?1, 3) a symbol index S+D?1, 4) the last symbol index in the slot, 5) a symbol index S+D?2, 6) a symbol index S+1, and/or 7) the symbol index S+D. Alternatively, the symbol index E may be determined as one of the symbol indices without separate signaling.
IV. Step 4
For the middle slot in the slot set, a single PUSCH resource having the slot duration is allocated to each slot.
4) Opt 4
A. DCI Signaling for PUSCH Scheduling
i. The DCI may indicate 1) a first slot index K where PUSCH transmissions/resources are indicated, 2) an in-slot starting symbol index S and a symbol duration D of the first sub-slot duration PUSCH resource in the corresponding first slot, 3) the total number of allocated (individual) PUSCH resources Np, and 4) a (in-slot) last symbol index E of the PUSCH resource allocated to the last slot.
B. Determination of PUSCH Resources
I. Step 1
1. One or more (L) sub-slot duration PUSCHs of the duration D are repeatedly mapped L times such that the PUSCHs are adjacent to each other, starting from the symbol index S in the first slot (to the in-slot last symbol only in the first slot).
a. In this case, the slot-filling method may be applied to repetition/mapping of the sub-slot duration PUSCHs of the duration D in the corresponding first slot.
