Abstract
Various aspects of the present disclosure generally relate to wireless communication. In some aspects, a user equipment (UE) may receive, from a base station, a transmission part (TP) hopping configuration that indicates one or more TPs and a TP hopping pattern associated with one or more hops between the one or more TPs. The UE may communicate, with the base station, using a TP of the one or more TPs based at least in part on the TP hopping configuration. Numerous other aspects are described.
