Uplink control information multiplexing on physical uplink control channel

A method of wireless communication by a base station (BS), comprising:

• generating a configuration of a first set of physical uplink control channel (PUCCH) resources for reporting channel state information (CSI);
• transmitting the configuration to at least one user equipment (UE);
• generating an indication of a second set of PUCCH resources for reporting hybrid automatic repeat request (HARQ) feedback, wherein the first set of PUCCH resources configured for reporting CSI overlaps with the second set of PUCCH resources indicated for reporting HARQ feedback, wherein the first and second sets of PUCCH resources are associated with downlink demodulation reference signal (DMRS) port groups;
• transmitting the indication to the at least one UE;
• and
• receiving, from the at least one UE, uplink control information (UCI), comprising CSI reports and HARQ feedback, multiplexed using the second set of PUCCH resources.
