Abstract

Apparatuses, methods, and systems are disclosed for communication configuration selection. One apparatus ( 200 ) includes a receiver ( 212 ) that receives ( 602 ) configuration information for multiple communication configurations. The configuration information corresponds to services having different performance requirements, and the performance requirements include latency, reliability, peak data rate, efficiency overhead, control overhead, system capacity, or some combination thereof. The apparatus ( 200 ) also includes a processor ( 202 ) that selects ( 604 ) a communication configuration of the multiple communication configurations. The apparatus ( 200 ) communicates ( 606 ) using the selected communication configuration.
