1. A method, comprising:
receiving, by a user equipment of a communication network, information comprising a multiple transmission time interval uplink grant downlink control information with cyclic redundancy check bits scrambled by a radio network temporary identifier;
based on the information comprising the multiple transmission time interval uplink grant downlink control information, determining a subset of data transmissions of a previous burst of data transmissions to be retransmitted by the user equipment; and
based on the determining, performing retransmission of the subset of data transmissions using scheduled resources of the multiple transmission time interval uplink grant downlink control information,
wherein if the information is indicating that a number of transmissions associated with the multiple transmission time interval uplink grant downlink control information is exceeding the number of retransmissions of the previous burst of data transmissions, use at least one transmission associated with the multiple transmission time interval uplink grant downlink control information for transmitting a data with a process identity value other than process identity values corresponding to processes used for the retransmissions.
