Abstract

Various aspects of the present disclosure generally relate to wireless communication. In some aspects, a wireless communication device may determine a first set of parameters associated with a first transport block (TB) repetition of a TB and a second set of parameters associated with a second TB repetition of the TB; and determine a TB size of the TB based at least in part on the first set of parameters, the second set of parameters, or both the first set of parameters and the second set of parameters. Numerous other aspects are provided.

Claims (44)

1. A method of wireless communication performed by a wireless communication device, comprising:

communicating a radio resource control (RRC) message including at least one parameter associated with transport block (TB) repetition;

communicating downlink control information (DCI) including at least one spatial parameter;

identifying a rule for determining a TB size based on the at least one parameter associated with the TB repetition and the at least one spatial parameter;

determining a first set of parameters associated with a first TB repetition;

determining a first TB size based on the identified rule and the first set of parameters; and

communicating using the first TB size for the first TB repetition and for a second TB repetition, wherein the identified rule indicates to use the first TB size for the second repetition.

2. The method of claim 1 , wherein the first TB repetition and the second TB repetition are scheduled in different transmission time intervals.

3. The method of claim 2 , wherein the different transmission time intervals are different slots, different mini-slots, or different sets of symbols.

4. The method of claim 1 , wherein the first TB repetition and the second TB repetition are scheduled in different resource blocks.

5. The method of claim 1 , wherein the first TB repetition and the second TB repetition are scheduled in different spatial layers.

6. The method of claim 1 , wherein the wireless communication device is a user equipment.

7. A wireless communication device for wireless communication, comprising:

memory; and

one or more processors, coupled to the memory, configured to:

communicate a radio resource control (RRC) message including at least one parameter associated with transport block (TB) repetition;

communicate downlink control information (DCI) including at least one spatial parameter;

identify a rule for determining a TB size based on the at least one parameter associated with the TB repetition and the at least one spatial parameter;

determine a first set of parameters associated with a first TB repetition;

determine a first TB size based on the identified rule and the first set of parameters; and

communicate using the first TB size for the first TB repetition and for a second TB repetition, wherein the identified rule indicates to use the first TB size for the second repetition.

8. The wireless communication device of claim 7 , wherein the first TB repetition and the second TB repetition are scheduled in different transmission time intervals.

9. The wireless communication device of claim 8 , wherein the different transmission time intervals are different slots, different mini-slots, or different sets of symbols.

10. The wireless communication device of claim 7 , wherein the first TB repetition and the second TB repetition are scheduled in different resource blocks.

11. The wireless communication device of claim 7 , wherein the wireless communication device is a user equipment.

12. A non-transitory computer-readable medium storing a set of instructions for wireless communication, the set of instructions comprising:

one or more instructions that, when executed by one or more processors of a wireless communication device, cause the wireless communication device to:

communicate a radio resource control (RRC) message including at least one parameter associated with transport block (TB) repetition;

communicate downlink control information (DCI) including at least one spatial parameter;

identify a rule for determining a TB size based on the at least one parameter associated with the TB repetition and the at least one spatial parameter;

determine a first set of parameters associated with a first TB repetition;

determine a first TB size based on the identified rule and the first set of parameters; and

communicate using the first TB size for the first TB repetition and for a second TB repetition, wherein the identified rule indicates to use the first TB size for the second repetition.

13. The non-transitory computer-readable medium of claim 12 , wherein the first TB repetition and the second TB repetition are scheduled in different transmission time intervals.

14. The non-transitory computer-readable medium of claim 13 , wherein the different transmission time intervals are different slots, different mini-slots, or different sets of symbols.

15. The non-transitory computer-readable medium of claim 12 , wherein the first TB repetition and the second TB repetition are scheduled in different resource blocks.

16. The non-transitory computer-readable medium of claim 12 , wherein the wireless communication device is a user equipment.

17. An apparatus for wireless communication, comprising:

means for communicating a radio resource control (RRC) message including at least one parameter associated with transport block (TB) repetition;

means for communicating downlink control information (DCI) including at least one spatial parameter;

means for identifying a rule for determining a TB size based on the at least one parameter associated with the TB repetition and the at least one spatial parameter;

means for determining a first set of parameters associated with a first TB repetition;

means for determining a first TB size based on the identified rule and the first set of parameters; and

means for communicating using the first TB size for the first TB repetition and for a second TB repetition, wherein the identified rule indicates to use the first TB size for the second repetition.
