1. A user equipment (UE) that communicates with a base station apparatus, comprising:
one or more processors; and
at least one memory, wherein the at least one memory stores instructions that, when executed by the one or more processors, cause the one or more processors to:
receive a radio resource control (RRC) message comprising first information used for indicating a first number of symbols and second information used for indicating a second number of groups of symbols, wherein
the second number of groups of symbols comprises a third number of groups of symbols and a fourth number of groups of symbols,
each group of the third number of groups of symbols includes a fifth number of symbols and each group of the fourth number of groups of symbols includes a sixth number of symbols, and
the third number, the fourth number, the fifth number, and the sixth number are calculated based on the first number and the second number;
receive an RRC message comprising third information used for indicating a seventh number of resource blocks and fourth information used for indicating an eighth number of groups of resource blocks, wherein
the eighth number of groups of resource blocks comprises a ninth number of groups of resource blocks and a tenth number of groups of resource blocks,
each group of the ninth number of groups of resource blocks includes an eleventh number of resource blocks and each group of the tenth number of groups of resource blocks includes a twelfth number of resource blocks, and
the ninth number, the tenth number, the eleventh number, and the twelfth number are calculated based on the seventh number and the eighth number;
monitor a first downlink control information (DCI) format comprising fifth information indicating a preemption indication, wherein
the second number of sets of bits in the fifth information have a one-to-one mapping with the second number of groups of symbols where the eighth number of bits in each set of bits have a one-to-one mapping with the eighth number of groups of resource blocks; and
perform, based on a detection of the first DCI format, no uplink transmission on at least one corresponding group(s) of symbols and at least one corresponding group(s) of resource blocks.
