1. A method of operating a user equipment (UE) in a New Radio (NR) Radio Access Network, the method comprising:
receiving first signaling in a first slot; and
transmitting Hybrid Acknowledgement Repeat Request (HARQ) feedback pertaining to the first signaling in a second slot on a Physical Uplink Control Channel (PUCCH);
the HARQ feedback transmission starting at a starting symbol in the second slot and extending in time over more than one symbol;
the starting symbol being determined based on a configuration of the UE indicating a starting symbol pattern;
the starting symbol pattern indicating a plurality of symbols available for starting transmission of acknowledgement signaling in the second slot, the starting symbol of the HARQ feedback being one of the symbols of the starting symbol pattern; and
the starting symbol of the HARQ feedback being configured to the UE with Radio Resource Control (RRC) signaling.
