1. A method performed by a user equipment (UE), the method comprising:
receiving a control signal that indicates a plurality of different transport blocks (TBs) in a TB set and a repetition number of each different TB in the TB set;
determining a transmission order of TBs in the TB set, wherein the transmission order corresponds to a TB index of a plurality of TB indexes corresponding to each TB in the TB set, and the plurality of TB indexes are ordered in an increasing order; and
performing at least one of transmitting the plurality of different TBs of the TB set or receiving the plurality of different TBs of the TB set according to the transmission order in a time duration cyclically,
wherein a first TB of the TB set is at least one of transmitted or received in a first number of subframes;
wherein the first number of subframes comprise valid subframes;
wherein each remaining TB of the plurality of different TBs of the TB set is transmitted or received according to the transmission order in a second number of subframes; and
wherein a quantity of the first number of subframes is equal to a quantity of the second number of subframes and determined based at least in part on at least one of a fixed value or the repetition number corresponding to the first TB in the received control signal.
