Abstract
Various aspects of the present disclosure generally relate to wireless communication. In some aspects, a user equipment (UE) may precode a sounding reference signal (SRS) transmission using a delay-Doppler precoder. The UE may transmit, after precoding the SRS transmission using the delay-Doppler precoder, the SRS transmission in an SRS symbol in a slot. Numerous other aspects are described.
