Timelines for time division multiplexing modem envelope enhancements

A network entity for wireless communications, comprising:

• one or more memories storing processor-executable code;
• and
• one or more processors coupled with the one or more memories and individually or collectively operable to execute the code to cause the network entity to:
• determine that processing of at least a portion of a transport block or at least a portion of multiple transport blocks during one or more time intervals is allowed for a downlink slot based at least in part on one or more non-downlink slots comprising flexible slots;
• transmit, to a user equipment (UE), a message for configuring the UE to process at least a portion of data corresponding to the downlink slot after the downlink slot and during one or more time intervals;
• transmit, to the UE, a message scheduling a transport block or multiple transport blocks in a downlink slot that immediately precedes one or more non-downlink slots in a time division-duplexing slot configuration;
• and
• transmit the transport block or the multiple transport blocks in the downlink slot, wherein the transport block satisfies a per-slot transport block size threshold that is associated with a hybrid automatic repeat request (HARQ) processing timeline.

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

• receiving, from a network entity, a message scheduling a transport block or multiple transport blocks in a downlink slot that immediately precedes one or more non-downlink slots in a time-division duplexing slot configuration;
• receiving the transport block or the multiple transport blocks in the downlink slot, wherein the transport block satisfies a per-slot transport block size threshold that is associated with a hybrid automatic repeat request (HARQ) processing timeline;
• determining that processing of at least a portion of the transport block or at least a portion of the multiple transport blocks during one or more time intervals is allowed for the downlink slot based at least in part on the one or more non-downlink slots comprising flexible slots;
• and
• processing the at least a portion of the transport block or the at least a portion of the multiple transport blocks during one or more time intervals that occur after the downlink slot.
