Systems, apparatuses, and methods are described for wireless communications. A base station may determine configuration parameters for a wireless device. The configuration parameters may be based on traffic pattern information received from the wireless device, such as a traffic periodicity, a timing offset, and/or a message size.

Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. A device (e.g., a base station or a user equipment (UE)) may identify a sequence length corresponding to a number of resource blocks, and select a modulation scheme based on the sequence length. The device may select, from a set of sequences associated with the modulation scheme, a sequence having the sequence length. In some examples, the set of sequences may include at least one of a set of time domain phase shift keying computer-generated sequences or a set of frequency domain phase shift keying computer-generated sequences. The device may generate a reference signal for a data transmission based on the sequence and transmit the reference signal within the number of resource blocks.
