Resynchronization signal transmission in wireless communications

A method for wireless communication at a network device, comprising:

• receiving, from a user equipment (UE), an indication that the UE is capable of processing a resynchronization signal (RSS);
• determining, by the network device, that first wireless resources allocated to an RSS transmission are in a same physical resource block (PRB) or subframe as second wireless resources allocated to another transmission of one or more transmission types, wherein the other transmission comprises a downlink shared channel transmission or a downlink control channel transmission;
• puncturing, based at least in part on one or more prioritization rules and determining that the first wireless resources are in the same PRB or subframe as the second wireless resources, at least a portion of the other transmission with the RSS transmission;
• and
• transmitting, to the UE, the RSS transmission over the first wireless resources in accordance with the one or more prioritization rules that prioritize the one or more transmission types relative to the RSS.

An apparatus for wireless communication, comprising:

• a processor;
• memory in electronic communication with the processor;
• and
• instructions stored in the memory and executable by the processor to cause the apparatus to:
• transmit, from a user equipment (UE), an indication to a network device that the UE is capable of processing a resynchronization signal (RSS);
• determine, at the UE, based on being scheduled for periodic RSS transmissions, that an RSS transmission is scheduled for first wireless resources that are in a same physical resource block (PRB) or subframe as second wireless resources scheduled for another transmission of one or more transmission types, wherein the other transmission comprises a downlink shared channel transmission or a downlink control channel transmission;
• determine, based at least in part on one or more prioritization rules and determining that the first wireless resources are in the same PRB or subframe as the second wireless resources, that at least a portion of the other transmission is punctured by the RSS transmission;
• receive, from the network device, the RSS transmission over the first wireless resources in accordance with the one or more prioritization rules that prioritize the one or more transmission types relative to the RSS based at least in part on the RSS transmission being scheduled in the same PRB or subframe as the other transmission.
