Abstract
Transmission time interval (TTI) bundling for ultra-reliable low-latency communication (URLLC) uplink and downlink transmissions is discussed in which a base station or user equipments (UEs) determine conditions for one or more served UEs that would indicate enabling TTI bundling for data and/or control transmissions. The serving base station transmits an enablement signal signifying that TTI bundling will be performed for data and/or control transmissions. The enablement signal may include a bundle length for the transmission bundle. The data or control signal packets may then be repeatedly transmitted to the UEs a number of times corresponding to the bundle length.
