1. A wireless communication method, comprising:
receiving, by a user equipment (UE) from a base station (BS), a signaling indicating a first offset;
determining, by the UE, a slot based on the first offset; and
sending, by the UE to the BS, an uplink transmission at the slot,
wherein the UE is not required to monitor an NPDCCH candidate in any subframe starting from subframe n+k−2+the first offset to subframe n+k−1+the first offset,
wherein n represents a slot where the UE receives downlink scheduling information from the BS that configures the uplink transmission, and k represents a second offset indicated by the BS,
wherein the slot is determined to be (n+k+first offset).
