Disclosed are techniques for wireless communication. In an aspect, a UE determines a configuration of a common PUCCH resource set that is based on a frequency hopping pattern and includes a first set of resource blocks (RBs) of a bandwidth part (BWP) in a first group of symbols and a second set of RBs of the BWP in a second group of symbols. In some designs, the second set of RBs is offset in frequency from the first set of RBs by a fixed hopping distance. In other designs, the BWP is further associated with a second PUCCH resource set that includes a third set of RBs of the BWP that overlaps in part with the first set of RBs of the BWP in the first group of symbols, a fourth set of RBs of the BWP that overlaps in part with the second set of RBs of the BWP in the second group of symbols, or a combination thereof.

Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described that support techniques for wireless communications using preconfigured uplink resources. Generally, the described techniques provide for enhancement of communication features including frequency hopping, an uplink control channel, coverage enhancement, timing advance, uplink power control, reconfiguration, a downlink control channel, a downlink data channel, retransmissions, or subcarrier spacing for a UE in idle mode. The UE may receive an uplink resource configuration for uplink communications in idle mode, the uplink resource configuration comprising an indicator associated with allocated resources for the uplink communications in idle mode and a set of parameters.

Methods and apparatus are described for transmitting uplink control information (UCI) over an OFDMA-based uplink. In some embodiments, UCI symbols are mapped to resource elements (REs) in the time/frequency resource grid to maximize frequency diversity. In some embodiments, UCI is mapped in a manner that takes into account channel estimation performance by mapping UCI symbols to those REs that are closest (in terms of OFDM subcarriers/symbols) to REs that carry reference signals.
