1. A method, comprising:
transmitting, by a User Equipment (UE), in a first slot, a first Physical Uplink Shared Channel (PUSCH) transmission comprising a set of coded bits selected based on a first redundancy version (RV);
determining, by the UE, that a second slot is available for an earliest repetition of the first PUSCH transmission, the second slot being later than the slot immediately following the first slot;
determining, by the UE, a second redundancy version; and
transmitting, by the UE, in the second slot, a second PUSCH transmission,
wherein:
the second redundancy version is determined based on a value k and on the first redundancy version,
the second PUSCH transmission is the kth PUSCH repetition of the first PUSCH transmission, and
the second PUSCH transmission comprises a set of coded bits selected based on the second redundancy version.
