NOTE 1: DM-RS configuration type = 1 with DM-RS duration = single-symbol DM-RS, additional DM-RS position = pos1 with l0= 2, l = 11 as per table 6.4.1.1.3-3 of TS 38.211 [5].

NOTE 2: MCS index 16 and target coding rate = 658/1024 are adopted to calculate payload size.

NOTE 3: Code block size including CRC (bits) equals to K’ in clause 5.2.2 of TS 38.212 [10].
