But how do we know know when pattern 2 will come into the picture?
Suppose in 30khz the dl-UL-TransmissionPeriodicity is 5 ms(total 10 slot to fill) and I give nrofDownlinkSlots as 2 and nrofUplinkSlots 2 (so total 6 slots left which I am thinking now become flexible).
Does pattern 2 mean I can give 6 DL slot after my last slot in pattern1 also?
If yes, how does the network know that I am not actually leaving 6 flexible slot in the middle of pattern1 and want to provide 6 DL slots in pattern 2?
