Abstract: An apparatus, method and computer program is provided comprising: determining a plurality of candidate data transmission slots, wherein each candidate data transmission slot has an index and said plurality of candidate data transmission slots are arranged in an order; setting an index of a current candidate data transmission slot of the plurality to be an incremental increase of an index of a preceding candidate data transmission slot of the plurality in the event that a timing gap between a start of said current candidate data transmission slot and a start of a subsequent candidate data transmission slot of the plurality is greater than a threshold; and setting the index of the current candidate data transmission slot to be equal to the index of the preceding candidate data transmission slot of the plurality in the event that the timing gap is not greater than said threshold.

Abstract: Embodiments of the present disclosure relate to methods, devices, apparatuses and computer readable storage media for Uplink Control Information (UCI) design. The method comprises determining, at a terminal device, a matrix comprising a set of non-zero linear combination coefficients for quantizing a channel between the terminal device and a network device, the matrix having spatial components and frequency components; shifting the frequency components of the matrix circularly, such that a target coefficient of the set of non-zero linear combination coefficients is located in a frequency component with a predetermined index of the frequency components in a shifted matrix; generating a first indication indicating the spatial component associated with the target coefficient in the matrix; and transmitting, to the network device, uplink control information comprising the first indication. In this way, a new solution for designing the UCI may reduce the overhead for reporting the parameters in the UCI.
