Abstract

Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. In a wireless communications system, a user equipment (UE) may receive, from a network device, a downlink control message that schedules a first and second repetition of a transport block for a downlink shared channel in a first component carrier of multiple component carriers, the first and second repetitions scheduled in a first and second transmission occasion associated with the downlink shared channel. The UE may monitor for the repetitions in the respective transmission occasions, and the UE may decode the transport block based on a number of transmission occasions associated with the downlink shared channel in the component carrier and a data rate limit across the multiple component carriers including the first component carrier.

Dependent claims

An apparatus for wireless communications at a user equipment (UE), comprising:

a processor;
memory coupled with the processor;
and
instructions stored in the memory and executable by the processor to cause the apparatus to:
receive, from a network device, a downlink control message that schedules a first transmission occasion and a second transmission occasion of a plurality of transmission occasions for a same transport block associated with a downlink shared channel in a first component carrier of a plurality of component carriers, wherein the first transmission occasion and the second transmission occasion are included in a slot;
receive the same transport block within the first transmission occasion and within the second transmission occasion based at least in part on the downlink control message;
count the first transmission occasion and the second transmission occasion separately for a data rate calculation associated with the plurality of component carriers;
and
decode the same transport block in accordance with a number of transmission occasions of the plurality of transmission occasions associated with the downlink shared channel in the first component carrier, and a data rate limit across the plurality of component carriers including the first component carrier.
