1. An apparatus configured to be employed in a User Equipment (UE), comprising:
one or more processors configured to:
process an initial Physical Downlink Shared Channel (PDSCH) transmission comprising one or more Redundancy Versions (RVs) of a Transport Block (TB);
based at least on the initial PDSCH transmission, make a determination of whether the TB was received correctly; and
in response to a determination that the TB was not received correctly, generate Hybrid Automatic Repeat reQuest (HARQ) feedback that indicates a requested RV sequence for the TB, wherein the requested RV sequence is indicated based at least on an indication of a length of a basic RV sequence.
