1. A method comprising:
validating, by a wireless device, a downlink control information (DCI), wherein the validating is:
based on one or more second bits in a redundancy version field of the DCI;
based on comparing one or more first bits in a hybrid automatic repeat request process number field of the DCI with a first sequence of one or more bits, determined using a first configuration parameter, in response to:
the one or more first bits not indicating a configuration index; and
the DCI having a first format; and
not based on comparing the one or more first bits with the first sequence in response to the DCI having a second format; and
transmitting a confirmation in response to the validation.
