1. A user equipment (UE) for wireless communication, comprising:
a memory; and
one or more processors, coupled to the memory, configured to:
receive configuration information indicating an enhanced physical uplink control channel (ePUCCH) format for an ePUCCH, wherein the ePUCCH is associated with an increased bandwidth configuration based at least in part on the ePUCCH format of the ePUCCH, wherein the increased bandwidth configuration uses a plurality of contiguous resource blocks (RBs) for the ePUCCH; and
transmit the ePUCCH using the increased bandwidth configuration,
wherein, based at least in part on the increased bandwidth configuration, the plurality of contiguous RBs are encoded using an extended sequence relative to a sequence specified by the ePUCCH format for the ePUCCH, and
wherein the ePUCCH format is an ePUCCH Format 0 or an ePUCCH Format 1.
