Configuring uplink channel repetitions that cross slot boundaries in time domain duplexing (tdd) pattern configurations

An apparatus for wireless communications by a network entity, comprising:

• a memory having executable instructions stored thereon;
• and
• a processor configured to execute the executable instructions to cause the apparatus to:
• transmit, to a user equipment (UE), configuration information identifying a time domain duplexing (TDD) slot pattern and a phase coherence configuration to apply to repetitions of uplink channel transmissions that cross slot boundaries for consecutive uplink slots in the TDD slot pattern;
• transmit, to the UE, scheduling information scheduling a plurality of repetitions of an uplink channel transmission across one or more slot boundaries;
• and
• receive the plurality of repetitions of the uplink channel transmission based on the TDD slot pattern and the phase coherence configuration identified in the configuration information.

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

• receiving, from a network entity, configuration information identifying a time domain duplexing (TDD) slot pattern and a phase coherence configuration to apply to repetitions of uplink channel transmissions that cross slot boundaries for consecutive uplink slots in the TDD slot pattern;
• receiving scheduling information scheduling a plurality of repetitions of an uplink channel transmission across one or more slot boundaries;
• and
• transmitting the plurality of repetitions of the uplink channel transmission based on the TDD slot pattern and the phase coherence configuration identified in the configuration information.
