## Abstract

A base station transmits a radio resource control message. The radio resource control message comprises a periodicity parameter indicating a number of symbols for a periodic resource allocation. A downlink control information indicating activation of the periodic resource allocation is transmitted. The downlink control information comprises one or more fields indicating a numerology. The numerology indicates a symbol duration. Transport blocks are received via resources associated with the periodic resource allocation. A time interval between two subsequent transmission occasions of the periodic resource allocation is determined based on the symbol duration and the number of symbols.

## Claims

### Claim 1

A method comprising:
transmitting, by a base station, a radio resource control message comprising a periodicity parameter indicating a number of transmission time intervals for a periodic resource allocation;
transmitting a downlink control information indicating activation of the periodic resource allocation, wherein the downlink control information comprises one or more fields indicating a transmission time interval duration; and
receiving transport blocks via resources associated with the periodic resource allocation, wherein a time interval between two subsequent transmission occasions of the periodic resource allocation is determined based on the number of transmission time intervals multiplied with the transmission time interval duration.

### Claim 2 (depends on 1)

The method of claim 1, wherein the radio resource control message comprises a radio network temporary identifier.

### Claim 3 (depends on 2)

The method of claim 2, wherein the downlink control information is associated with the radio network temporary identifier.

### Claim 4 (depends on 3)

The method of claim 3, wherein the downlink control information indicates the resources for the receiving of the transport blocks.

### Claim 5 (depends on 1)

The method of claim 1, wherein the downlink control information indicates the resources for the receiving of the transport blocks.

### Claim 6 (depends on 5)

The method of claim 5, wherein the downlink control information comprises one or more second fields, the resources being determined based on one or more second fields.

### Claim 7 (depends on 1)

The method of claim 1, wherein the downlink control information indicates one or more transmission durations up to a first value for receiving of the transport blocks.

### Claim 8 (depends on 7)

The method of claim 7, wherein a transmission duration in the one or more transmission durations corresponds to one or more logical channels.

### Claim 9

A base station comprising:
one or more processors; and
memory storing instructions that, when executed by the one or more processors, cause the base station to:
transmit a radio resource control message comprising a periodicity parameter indicating a number of transmission time intervals for a periodic resource allocation;
transmit a downlink control information indicating activation of the periodic resource allocation, wherein the downlink control information comprises one or more fields indicating a transmission time interval duration; and
receive transport blocks via resources associated with the periodic resource allocation, wherein a time interval between two subsequent transmission occasions of the periodic resource allocation is determined based on the number of transmission time intervals multiplied with the transmission time interval duration.
