1. A network controlled repeater (NCR) comprising:
receiving circuitry configured to:
receive a radio resource control (RRC) configuration from a gNodeB (gNB) on a configured grant (CG), including resource allocation with beam indication, an uplink (UL) forwarding delay information and an NCR configured scheduling-radio network temporary identifier (CS-RNTI),
wherein the receiving circuitry is further configured to determine that the CG is type 2 by receiving a ConfiguredGrantConfig-ncr not including rrc-ConfiguredUplinkGrant-ncr, and to monitor a physical downlink control channel (PDCCH), receive and validate an activation downlink control information (DCI) for the CG.
