Original Abstract Submitted

Methods and apparatuses for cell selection for uplink transmission. A method for operating a user equipment includes receiving: a bitmap mapping to a number of slots on a primary cell. The mapping repeats periodically over the number of slots. The bitmap indicates the primary cell or a secondary cell. The method further includes receiving information for first parameters associated with transmission of a physical uplink control channel (PUCCH) on the primary cell and information for second parameters associated with transmission of a PUCCH on the secondary cell. The method further includes determining, based on the bitmap, a first cell to transmit a first PUCCH in a slot of the first cell and transmitting the first PUCCH in the slot on the first cell.
