Resource quantization for guard interval (GI)-based waveforms

A network entity, 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:
• transmit, to a user equipment (UE), one or more first signals that indicate a resource allocation and that indicate a set of guard interval-based waveform parameters for a guard interval-based waveform associated with the UE;
• transmit, to the UE, an indication of one or more quantized resource allocation parameters associated with the guard interval-based waveform;
• communicate the guard interval-based waveform with the UE using the one or more quantized resource allocation parameters and the set of guard interval-based waveform parameters;
• transmit, to the UE, an indication of one or more second quantized resource allocation parameters associated with the guard interval-based waveform, wherein the one or more second quantized resource allocation parameters are different than the one or more quantized resource allocation parameters;
• and
• receive, from the UE, one or more messages requesting one or more third quantized resource allocation parameters, wherein the indication of the one or more second quantized resource allocation parameters is transmitted in response to the one or more messages.

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

• receiving, from a network entity, one or more first signals that indicate a resource allocation and that indicate a set of guard interval-based waveform parameters for a guard interval-based waveform associated with the UE;
• receiving, from the network entity, an indication of one or more quantized resource allocation parameters associated with the guard interval-based waveform;
• communicating the guard interval-based waveform with the network entity using the one or more quantized resource allocation parameters and the set of guard interval-based waveform parameters;
• receiving, from the network entity, an indication of one or more second quantized resource allocation parameters associated with the guard interval-based waveform, wherein the one or more second quantized resource allocation parameters are different from the one or more quantized resource allocation parameters;
• and
• transmitting, to the network entity, one or more messages requesting one or more third quantized resource allocation parameters, wherein the indication of the one or more second quantized resource allocation parameters is received in response to the one or more messages.
