Method, apparatus and computer program product for determining transmission parameters

An apparatus, comprising:

• at least one processor;
• and
• at least one memory including computer program code,
• wherein the at least one memory and the computer program code are configured to, with the at least one processor, cause the apparatus to
• transmit transmission configuration information used by the apparatus to a mobile terminal for determining transmission parameters, wherein the transmission configuration information comprises
• a first set of parameters comprising at least a first repetition level set index, a first repetition level index, a first resource allocation and a first transport block size index, or
• a second set of parameters comprising at least a second repetition level index, a second resource allocation, and a second transport block size index, or
• a third set of parameters comprising at least a modulation and coding scheme level index, a third resource allocation and a third transport block size index.

An apparatus, comprising:

• at least one processor;
• and
• at least one memory including computer program code,
• wherein the at least one memory and the computer program code are configured to, with the at least one processor, cause the apparatus to:
• receive transmission configuration information used by a network element for determining transmission parameters, wherein the transmission configuration information comprises
• a first set of parameters comprising at least a first repetition level set index, a first repetition level index, a first resource allocation and a first transport block size index, or
• a second set of parameters comprising at least a second repetition level index, a second resource allocation, and a second transport block size index, or
• a third set of parameters comprising at least a modulation and coding scheme level index, a third resource allocation and a third transport block size index;
• and
• determine transmission parameters used by the network element based at least in part on the transmission configuration information.
