REPLACING BROKEN UPLINK REPETITIONS

Abstract:

Certain aspects of the present disclosure provide techniques for replacing and/or fixing broken uplink repetitions due to segmentation of nominal repetitions into actual repetitions. A method that may be performed by a user equipment (UE) includes detecting that a configured repetition pattern for uplink transmission to a network entity results in segmentation of at least one nominal repetition into multiple actual repetitions, modifying the configured repetition pattern, based at least in part on the detection, to avoid segmentation of nominal repetitions into multiple actual repetitions, and sending the uplink transmission to the network entity in accordance with the modified repetition pattern.
