Transport block over multiple slots coding chain

An apparatus for wireless communications at a user equipment (UE), comprising:

• means for receiving, from a network node, a message indicating a plurality of slots for transmitting a transport block on a physical uplink shared channel (PUSCH);
• means for segmenting the transport block into a plurality of code blocks;
• means for encoding the plurality of code blocks to produce a plurality of encoded code blocks, each of the plurality of code blocks encoded at a respective coding path of a plurality of coding paths associated with a coding chain;
• means for transmitting the plurality of encoded code blocks in the plurality of slots on the PUSCH;
• means for concatenating the plurality of encoded code blocks to generate a concatenated encoded code block;
• and
• means for segmenting the concatenated encoded code block based on a quantity of the plurality of slots.

An apparatus for wireless communications at a user equipment (UE), comprising:

• a processor;
• and
• a memory coupled with the processor and storing instructions operable, when executed by the processor, to cause the apparatus to:
• receive, from a network node, a message indicating a plurality of slots for transmitting a transport block on a physical uplink shared channel (PUSCH);
• segment the transport block into a plurality of code blocks;
• encode the plurality of code blocks to produce a plurality of encoded code blocks, each of the plurality of code blocks encoded at a respective coding path of a plurality of coding paths associated with a coding chain;
• transmit the plurality of encoded code blocks in the plurality of slots on the PUSCH;
• concatenate the plurality of encoded code blocks to generate a concatenated encoded code block;
• and
• segment the concatenated encoded code block based on a quantity of the plurality of slots.
