Techniques for feedback deferral with feedback retransmission and carrier switching
Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communication at a user equipment (UE) are described. A UE may monitor a first slot for a semi-persistent scheduled transmission associated with a target slot for feedback information for the semi-persistent scheduled transmission. The UE may also monitor for a control message during a first time period based on a scheduling conflict between uplink transmission of the feedback information and a downlink reception at the target slot. In some examples, the UE may select a second slot subsequent to the first slot for transmission of the feedback information for the semi-persistent scheduled transmission based on at least one of monitoring for the control message during the first time period or an availability of uplink resources during a second time period at least partially overlapping with the first time period. The UE may then perform a communication procedure with a network device.
