Resource allocation constraint mitigation

A method for wireless communications at a receiving device, comprising:

• identifying a capability of a transmitting device for communication of a time domain single carrier waveform with the receiving device, the capability indicating a limitation on a number of resources allocated for communicating the time domain single carrier waveform with the receiving device, wherein a wireless cell of the receiving device supports the time domain single carrier waveform and a second waveform different from the time domain single carrier waveform, and wherein the limitation indicates a group size of resource blocks that the transmitting device supports for communicating the time domain single carrier waveform;
• determining a resource allocation for communicating the time domain single carrier waveform based at least in part on the limitation on the number of resources imposed by the transmitting device;
• and
• indicating, to the transmitting device, the resource allocation for communicating the time domain single carrier waveform.

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

• a processor;
• memory coupled with the processor;
• and
• instructions stored in the memory and executable by the processor to cause the apparatus to:
• identify a resource allocation indicating a number of resources allocated under a limitation on the number of resources for communication of a time domain single carrier waveform with a receiving device, the limitation indicating a group size of resource blocks that the transmitting device supports for communicating the time domain single carrier waveform, wherein the transmitting device is operating in a wireless cell of the receiving device that supports the time domain single carrier waveform and a second waveform different from the time domain single carrier waveform;
• and
• communicate the time domain single carrier waveform with the receiving device in accordance with the resource allocation.
