1. A method performed by a user equipment (UE) for small data transmission (SDT), the method comprising:
receiving a configured grant (CG) configuration for SDT from a base station (BS);
receiving a synchronization signal and physical broadcast channel block (SSB) set from the BS;
receiving a mapping ratio configuration from the BS, wherein;
the mapping ratio configuration indicates a number of SSBs per CG resource, and
the CG resource is configured by the CG configuration for SDT; and
determining a mapping between SSB indexes of SSBs in the SSB set and the CG resource based on the mapping ratio configuration and an increasing order of specific indexes of the CG resource.
