Systems and methods for uplink transmission overlap resolution

This disclosure provides systems, methods, and devices for wireless communication that support resolution of uplink (UL) transmission overlap of communication types having different priorities. In some implementations, a method of wireless communication includes determining, at a user equipment (UE), that a first scheduled UL transmission corresponding to a first communication type having a first priority overlaps with a second scheduled UL transmission corresponding to a second communication type having a second priority. The first priority is higher than the second priority. The method also includes multiplexing at least a portion of the first scheduled UL transmission with at least a portion of the second scheduled UL transmission to generate a third UL transmission. The method further includes transmitting, from the UE to a base station, the third UL transmission. Other aspects and features are also claimed and described.
