1. A method for resource allocation by a user equipment (UE):
receiving, at the UE, repeated physical downlink control channels (PDCCHs) from a network, each of the repeated PDCCHs comprising downlink control information (DCI) that schedules reception of a same physical downlink shared channel (PDSCH) at the UE; and
determining, by the UE, resources for:
transmission at the UE based on an indicator from a PDCCH having a latest start symbol or a latest ending symbol from among the repeated PDCCHs, and
reception at the UE based on an offset after the PDCCH, wherein the PDCCH having the latest start symbol or the latest ending symbol from among the repeated PDCCHs,
wherein the repeated PDCCHs are received in accordance with the UE and the network communicating using a multi-transmission and reception point (TRP) repetition scheme or a multi-TRP multi-chance scheme.
