Orphan resource element (re) for demodulation reference signals (dmrs) in sub-band full duplex (sbfd)

Abstract

Certain aspects of the present disclosure provide a method for wireless communications at a gNodeB (gNB). The gNB may receive capability information of a user equipment (UE). The gNB may transmit an indication of scheduled resources for one or more transmissions to the UE. The scheduled resources may be in accordance with scheduling rules, which are associated with the capability information. The scheduling rules may indicate a same quantity of consecutive physical resource blocks (PRBs) to be allocated for each downlink sub-band within a downlink bandwidth part (BWP), a quantity of PRBs that are at an offset from a reference point per each downlink sub-band within the downlink BWP is even, and/or a size of each physical resource block group (PRG) allocated for the UE is associated with an even number.
