Frequency hopping for physical uplink shared channel (pusch) communications

A wireless communication system, comprising:

• a transceiver;
• and
• at least one processor coupled to the transceiver, wherein the at least one processor is configured to:
• receive a frequency domain resource allocation indicating a transmission frequency and an offset frequency;
• identify a dataset having symbols using a Physical Uplink Shared Channel (PUSCH) transmission scheme;
• identify that the PUSCH transmission scheme indicates usage of inter-repetition frequency hopping;
• in response to the determining, divide the symbols into a first divided portion and a second divided portion for inter-repetition frequency hopping;
• transmit, via the transceiver, the first divided portion of symbols in a first transmission repetition using the transmission frequency;
• and
• transmit, via the transceiver, the second divided portion of symbols in a second transmission repetition using the offset frequency.
