DCI-based tone reservation for power control

A method for wireless communications at a user equipment (UE), comprising:

• receiving, downlink control information (DCI) that indicates a set of allocated resources the UE is to utilize for tone reservation, wherein the DCI comprises a first DCI and a second DCI, wherein the first DCI is indicative of a first set of data tones and the second DCI is indicative of a first set of peak-reduction tones;
• and
• transmitting a signal comprising a combination of the first set of data tones and the first set of peak-reduction tones from the set of allocated resources based at least in part on the DCI, wherein the first set of data tones is different from the first set of peak-reduction tones.

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

• transmitting downlink control information (DCI) that indicates a set of allocated resources that a user equipment (UE) is to utilize for tone reservation, the set of allocated resources comprising a first set of data tones and a first set of peak-reduction tones for transmission of a signal, the first set of peak-reduction tones is different from the first set of data tones, and wherein the DCI comprises a first DCI and a second DCI, wherein the first DCI is indicative of the first set of data tones and the second DCI is indicative of the first set of peak-reduction tones;
• and
• receiving the signal comprising a combination of the first set of data tones and the first set of peak-reduction tones based at least in part on the DCI.

A non-transitory computer-readable medium storing code for wireless communications at a user equipment (UE), the code comprising instructions executable by one or more processors to cause the UE to:

• receive downlink control information (DCI) indicating a set of allocated resources the UE is to utilize for tone reservation, wherein the DCI comprises a first DCI and a second DCI, wherein the first DCI is indicative of a first set of data tones and the second DCI is indicative of a first set of peak-reduction tones;
• and
• transmit a signal comprising a combination of the first set of data tones and the first set of peak-reduction tones from the set of allocated resources based at least in part on the DCI, wherein the first set of data tones is different from the first set of peak-reduction tones.
