Multiple configured grant small data transmission configurations

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

• receiving, prior to transitioning out of a radio resource control connected state, one or more downlink messages that collectively indicate a plurality of configured grant small data transmission configurations and a configuration for a bandwidth part for configured grant small data transmissions;
• transitioning out of the radio resource control connected state based at least in part on receiving at least one of the one or more downlink messages;
• and
• transmitting an initial configured grant small data transmission that includes at least one common control channel message over resources associated with one or more of the plurality of configured grant small data transmission configurations.

A network entity for wireless communication, 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) prior to the UE transitioning out of a radio resource control connected state, one or more downlink messages that collectively indicate a plurality of configured grant small data transmission configurations and a configuration for a bandwidth part for configured grant small data transmissions;
• and
• monitor for an initial configured grant small data transmission that includes at least one common control channel message transmitted over resources associated with one or more of the plurality of configured grant small data transmission configurations.
