Abstract

A user equipment (UE) that communicates via mini-slot-based repetitions includes receiving circuitry configured to receive a radio resource control (RRC) message comprising first information for configuring a first number of repetitions for physical uplink shared channel (PUSCH) transmissions, second information for configuring a second number of repetitions for PUSCH transmissions, and third information for indicating a repetition type from a set of repetition types comprising a first repetition type and a second repetition type, the first repetition type indicating only one repetition to be transmitted within a slot, the second repetition type indicating repetitions to be transmitted within the slot. The UE includes transmitting circuitry configured to perform, based on the third information, the first number of repetitions or the second number of repetitions, wherein the transmitting circuitry performs the second number of repetitions in a case that the third information indicates the second repetition type.
