1. A base station (BS), comprising:
at least one processor; and
at least one memory coupled to the at least one processor and storing one or more instructions that, when executed by the at least one processor, cause the BS to:
transmit, to a user equipment (UE), a Radio Resource Control (RRC) configuration to configure a first sequence associated with a first RRC parameter and a second sequence associated with a second RRC parameter, the first sequence having a first length and corresponding to a first plurality of beta offset indexes, and the second sequence having a second length and corresponding to a second plurality of beta offset indexes;
transmit, to the UE, a first downlink control information (DCI) format including a first indicator indicating one of the first plurality of beta offset indexes and a second DCI format including a second indicator indicating one of the second plurality of beta offset indexes; and
receive, from the UE, an uplink control information (UCI) message which is multiplexed by the UE based on one of a first value corresponding to the first indicator or a second value corresponding to the second indicator,
wherein:
the first value corresponding to the first indicator is determined by the UE based on the first sequence,
the second value corresponding to the second indicator is determined by the UE based on the second sequence,
the first length of the first sequence corresponding to the first indicator is different from the second length of the second sequence corresponding to the second indicator, and
a third length of the first indicator is different from a fourth length of the second indicator.
