1. A method of operating a communication device in a wireless communication network, the method comprising:
receiving a control information message including at least one first indication, the control information message scheduling a start of a data signaling of at least one code block;
determining a minimum number of orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) symbols, Lmin, for mapping the at least one code block, based on the at least one first indication;
determining a maximum number of OFDM symbols, Lmax, based on the at least one first indication;
determining a code block size based on the Lmin; and
communicating utilising the data signaling based on the determined code block size, the communicating including repeatedly communicating the at least one code block Lmin OFDM symbols at a time until Lmax OFDM symbols have been communicated.
