1. A method of wireless communication performed by a user equipment (UE), comprising:
receiving a sounding reference signal (SRS) resource configuration, the SRS resource configuration indicating at least a comb pattern for at least one SRS resource allocated to the UE and a puncturing unit for the comb pattern, wherein the comb pattern is divided into one or more puncturing units, wherein each puncturing unit of the one or more puncturing units comprises one or more time units of the comb pattern, and wherein each of the one or more time units of the comb pattern comprises two or more symbols; and
transmitting at least one SRS transmission of the at least one SRS resource outside a first puncturing unit of the one or more puncturing units based on a determination that one or more SRS transmissions of the at least one SRS resource within the first puncturing unit are to be dropped.
