JOINT MODULATION AND CODING SCHEME INDICATION FOR DOWNLINK AND UPLINK ALLOCATIONS IN SUB-BAND FULL-DUPLEX

Abstract:

Various aspects of the present disclosure generally relate to wireless communication. In some aspects, a user equipment (UE) may receive a single downlink control information (DCI) message scheduling a simultaneous downlink transmission and uplink transmission in an unpaired band. In some aspects, the single DCI message may include a modulation and coding scheme (MCS) field having one or more bits that indicate a first MCS for the downlink transmission. The UE may determine a second MCS for the uplink transmission based at least in part on an offset from the first MCS for the downlink transmission. Numerous other aspects are provided.
