Abstract

A user equipment (UE) is described. The UE includes a higher layer processor configured to acquire a first dedicated radio resource control (RRC) configuration and a second dedicated RRC configuration. The first dedicated RRC configuration specifies a configuration of a first physical downlink control channel (PDCCH) which indicates a slot format. The second dedicated RRC configuration specifies a configuration of repetition of a physical uplink shared channel (PUSCH). The UE also includes PDCCH receiving circuitry configured to monitor the first PDCCH. The UE further includes PUSCH transmitting circuitry configured to transmit the PUSCH with the repetition. In a case that the first PDCCH indicates that a symbol for the PUSCH in a slot is other than either downlink or uplink, the PUSCH is not transmitted in the slot and the PUSCH in the slot is counted as one of the repetition.
