Techniques for dynamic signaling for wireless coverage enhancement

A method of wireless communication performed by a base station (BS), comprising:

• determining that beam performance of one or more narrow beams, on which the BS communicates with one or more user equipments (UEs), does not satisfy a performance threshold;
• determining to activate one or more coverage enhancement parameters for one or more user equipments (UEs),
• wherein the one or more coverage enhancement parameters comprise at least one of:
• a repetition parameter,
• a frequency resource allocation parameter,
• a time resource allocation parameter, or
• a payload size parameter;
• and
• transmitting, to the one or more UEs and based at least in part on the determination to activate the one or more coverage enhancement parameters, a single dynamic communication indicating to activate the one or more coverage enhancement parameters.

A user equipment (UE) for wireless communication, comprising:

• a memory;
• and
• one or more processors coupled to the memory, the memory and the one or more processors configured to:
• receive, in a single dynamic signaling communication, an indication to activate one or more coverage enhancement parameters,
• wherein the one or more coverage enhancement parameters include at least one of:
• a repetition parameter,
• a frequency resource allocation parameter,
• a time resource allocation parameter, or
• a payload size parameter;
• and
• activate the one or more coverage enhancement parameters based at least in part on receiving the indication.
