Reception of multiple uplink control messages at a same time slot

Abstract:

A base station may transmit scheduling information comprising one or more first downlink messages to a first user equipment (UE) in a first beam. The base station may transmit one or more second downlink messages to a second UE in a second beam. In response to the transmission of the one or more first downlink messages, the base station may receive one or more first uplink control messages from the first UE in a time slot. In response to the transmission of the one or more second downlink messages, the base station may receive one or more second uplink control messages from the second UE in the same time slot. The one or more second uplink control messages may be frequency-orthogonal or spreading code-orthogonal to the one or more first uplink control messages.
