1. A transceiver device, comprising: circuitry, which, in operation, repeats, on a medium access control (MAC) layer, a scheduling request by instructing a transceiver to transmit the scheduling request on a plurality of opportunities of a physical uplink control channel (PUCCH); and
the transceiver, which, according to an allowable request indicator, transmits the scheduling requests over the PUCCH,
wherein the allowable request indicator indicates a total number of scheduling requests allowed by a plurality of scheduling request configurations per logical channel, wherein
the circuitry, in operation,
initiates a plurality of scheduling request prohibit timers, each scheduling request prohibit timer being associated with one of the plurality of scheduling request configurations, and
does not instruct the transceiver to transmit the scheduling request on an opportunity according to one of the plurality of scheduling request configurations in a case where the scheduling request prohibit timer associated with the one of the plurality of scheduling request configurations is running.
