Abstract
Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described in which a block error rate (BLER) in non-terrestrial network (NTN) communications may be reduced through coverage enhancement techniques. Coverage enhancement techniques may include slot bundling for physical downlink control channel (PDCCH) communications, in which repetitions of a PDCCH may occupy multiple time-frequency locations spanning multiple slots. Such slots can be consecutive or non-consecutive, and in some cases multiple repetitions of the PDCCH may be provided within the same slot. The pattern of the time-frequency locations of repetitions may be periodic or non-periodic. Further, the repetitions can be exact copies, or different redundancy versions of the same encoded DCI. Additionally, repetitions of uplink or downlink shared channel communications, uplink or downlink control channel communication, broadcast channel communications, or any combinations thereof, may be provided.
