Transport block size determination for equal size code blocks

A wireless receiver comprising processing circuitry operable to:

• receive a wireless signal via a physical channel transmission from a wireless transmitter, the wireless signal corresponding to a transport block;
• determine a transport block size, TBS, using a formula, and wherein the formula accounts for cyclic redundancy check, CRC, bits attached to the transport block;
• and
• decode the wireless signal to obtain the transport block.

A method for use in a wireless receiver, the method comprising:

• receiving a wireless signal via a physical channel transmission from a wireless transmitter, the wireless signal corresponding to a transport block;
• determining a transport block size, TBS, using a formula, and wherein the formula accounts for cyclic redundancy check, CRC, bits attached to the transport block;
• and
• decoding the wireless signal to obtain the transport block.
