Abstract

According to certain embodiments, a method performed by a network node comprises indicating in a control message at least a Modulation and Coding Scheme (MCS) and a scaling factor for a shared downlink channel. The scaling factor indicates a value less than 1. The method further comprises sending the control message to a User Equipment (UE), the control message enabling determination of a Transport Block Size (TBS) for the shared downlink channel.According to certain embodiments, a method performed by a wireless device comprises receiving a control message. The control message indicates at least a Modulation and Coding Scheme (MCS) and a scaling factor for a shared downlink channel. The scaling factor indicates a value less than 1. The method further comprises determining a transport block size (TBS) based on the MCS and the scaling factor indicated in the control message.
