1. A processor of a user equipment (UE) configured to perform operations comprising:
receiving from a base station a semi-persistent scheduling (SPS) configuration for physical downlink shared channel (PDSCH) transmissions wherein multiple PDSCHs are transmitted within a single period of the SPS, the SPS configuration including a parameter for a number of hybrid automatic repeat request (HARQ) processes associated with the SPS configuration, wherein the SPS configuration includes a sequence of pdsch-AggregationFactor parameters, wherein each of the pdsch-AggregationFactor parameters corresponds to a different transport block (TB) in the single period of the SPS configuration;
receiving from the base station a downlink control information (DCI) transmission for activating the SPS configuration, the DCI including a HARQ process ID for one of the PDSCH transmissions in the SPS configuration, wherein the UE determines a maximum number of PDSCH transmissions allowed within the single period based on the parameter for the number of HARQ processes associated with the SPS configuration;
validating the DCI to determine time domain resources to use for the PDSCH transmission; and
receiving from the base station the multiple PDSCH transmissions within the single SPS period.
