Abstract: Various aspects of the present disclosure generally relate to wireless communication. In some aspects, a user equipment (UE) may receive a grant indicating a modulation and coding scheme (MCS) that indicates that the grant is for a retransmission of an initial communication. The UE may decode, based at least in part on the grant indicating the MCS that indicates that the grant is for the retransmission and using a transport block size (TBS) of a prior communication, a communication scheduled by the grant, wherein the prior communication is prior to the initial communication. Numerous other aspects are described.

Abstract: A method of wireless communication performed by a user equipment (UE) includes receiving one or more configuration messages indicating configuration of the UE with a first component carrier (CC) and at least a second CC for a first subscription corresponding to a first subscriber identity module (SIM) of the UE. The method further includes performing one or more operations associated with a second subscription corresponding to a second SIM of the UE during a time interval. During the time interval, communication by the first subscription using the second CC is avoided based on a first throughput associated with the first CC exceeding a second throughput associated with the second CC.
