High pathloss mode multiplexing

An apparatus for wireless communications at a first wireless device, comprising:

• a processor;
• and
• memory coupled to the processor, the processor configured to:
• configure, at the first wireless device for communications with a second wireless device, one or more first sets of resources of a radio frequency spectrum band for communications associated with a first mode;
• configure, at the first wireless device for communications with a third wireless device, one or more second sets of resources of the radio frequency spectrum band for communications associated with a second mode, wherein a first length of a first synchronization signal block associated with the first mode is different from a second length of a second synchronization signal block associated with the second mode;
• communicate, according to the first length of the first synchronization signal block, with the second wireless device operating in the first mode via the one or more first sets of resources;
• and
• communicate, according to the second length of the second synchronization signal block, with the third wireless device operating in the second mode via the one or more second sets of resources.
