Repetition-based transmission

Abstract:

Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. In some wireless communications systems, devices may implement transmission repetitions for transport blocks (TBs) to improve reception reliability. However, to support low latency, TBs may be transmitted in any transmission time interval (TTI) within a subframe. The systems may implement process to handle these TB repetitions. In some cases, a device may receive, during a TTI of a subframe, control information including an indication of transmission repetitions of a TB for a plurality of TTIs, identify a quantity of transmission repetitions of the TB based on the control information, and monitor for the transmission repetitions of the TB.
