1. A user equipment (UE) that communicates with a base station, the UE comprising:
receiving circuitry configured to:
receive a radio resource control (RRC) message used for configuring more than one configured grant (CG) physical uplink shared channel (PUSCH) configuration,
receive an RRC configuration comprising information used for configuring a list for CG PUSCH configuration release,
detect a physical downlink control channel (PDCCH) for a first downlink control information (DCI) format with cyclic redundancy check (CRC) scrambled by a first radio network identifier (RNTI), the first DCI format being used for an activation of a CG PUSCH configuration, and
detect a PDCCH for a second DCI format with CRC scrambled by the first RNTI, the second DCI format being used for a deactivation of CG PUSCH configuration(s);
transmitting circuitry configured to perform, based on a detection of the first DCI format comprising information used for indicating the activation of the CG PUSCH configuration, an uplink data transmission on a PUSCH corresponding to the activated CG PUSCH configuration; and
processing circuitry configured to release the CG PUSCH configuration(s), based on a detection of the second DCI format comprising information indicating a) the release of the CG PUSCH configuration(s) and b) indices of the released CG PUSCH configuration(s), and, according to the second DCI format and the information used for configuring the list.
