Modulation and coding scheme (mcs) adaptation in full-duplex mode

A scheduling entity in a wireless communication network, comprising:

• a transceiver;
• a memory;
• and
• a processor coupled to the transceiver and the memory, wherein the scheduling entity is configured to:
• schedule a downlink transmission of a transport block comprising a plurality of code block groups (CBGs) to a scheduled entity;
• select at least a first modulation and coding scheme (MCS) for generating the transport block based on at least a first set of CBGs of the plurality of CBGs at least partially overlapping in time with an uplink transmission from the scheduled entity during full-duplex mode operations;
• and
• transmit the downlink transmission comprising the plurality of CBGs of the transport block to the scheduled entity via the transceiver.

A scheduled entity in a wireless communication network, comprising:

• a transceiver;
• a memory;
• and
• a processor coupled to the transceiver and the memory, wherein the scheduled entity is configured to:
• receive first scheduling information for a downlink transmission of a transport block comprising a plurality of code block groups (CBGs) from a scheduling entity via the transceiver, wherein the first scheduling information indicates at least a first modulation and coding scheme (MCS) associated with the transport block selected based on at least a first set of CBGs of the plurality of CBGs at least partially overlapping in time with an uplink transmission from the scheduled entity during full-duplex mode operations;
• and
• receive the downlink transmission comprising the plurality of CBGs of the transport block from the scheduling entity via the transceiver, wherein the plurality of CBGs comprise at least the first MCS.
