1. A method implemented at a terminal device, comprising:
receiving from a network node indication information of time domain resource allocation for a non-remaining minimum system information, RMSI, message;
receiving configuration information for the network node; and
determining a location of time domain resource for a non-RMSI message based at least in part on the indication information and the configuration information;
wherein the configuration information comprises configurable orthogonal frequency division multiplexing, OFDM, symbol offset, and the configuration information is received via Radio Resource Control (RRC) signaling, and wherein the indication information is received as a part of downlink control information (DCI) carried by a Physical Downlink Control Channel (PDCCH) in a control resource set (CORESET);
wherein the indication information is associated with a time domain resource allocation table specified for the non-RMSI message;
wherein the time domain resource allocation table comprises at least one of the following parameters: physical downlink shared channel, PDSCH, mapping type, slot level offset, start symbol index and an allocated number of orthogonal frequency division multiplexing, OFDM, symbols, wherein the PDSCH mapping type comprises Type A and/or Type B, and/or the slot level offset comprises 0, 1 and/or integer greater than 1, and/or the start symbol index comprises at least one of 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, and/or the allocated number of OFDM symbol comprises at least one of 2, 4, 7, and integer greater than 7.
