Scheduling and/or scheduling configuration

A method for wireless communication by a user equipment (UE), comprising:

• identifying one or more UE capabilities in association with different grant characteristics;
• transmitting, to a base station, an indication of the one or more UE capabilities;
• and
• receiving, from the base station, a grant having one of the different grant characteristics and including an assignment of resources, the assignment of resources based at least in part on the one or more UE capabilities
• wherein the different grant characteristics include a configuration of a wireless communications frame structure or slot in which the grant is to be received.

An apparatus for wireless communication, in a system comprising:

• a processor;
• memory in electronic communication with the processor;
• and
• instructions stored in the memory and operable, when executed by the processor, to cause the apparatus to:
• receive, from a user equipment (UE), an indication of one or more UE capabilities;
• determine, based at least in part on the one or more UE capabilities, when a grant to be transmitted by a base station to the UE is usable by the UE;
• and
• transmit the grant to the UE, the grant including an assignment of resources based at least in part on when the grant is usable;
• wherein determining when the grant is usable includes determining a time duration after receipt of the grant in which the grant is usable by the UE, and wherein determining the time duration comprises identifying the time duration based at least in part on a configuration of a wireless communications frame structure or slot in which the grant is to be transmitted, a configuration of a predetermined number of wireless communication frame structures or slots which follow transmission of the grant, or combinations thereof.
