1. A user equipment (UE) for wireless communication, comprising:
one or more memories; and
one or more processors coupled with the one or more memories and configured to cause the UE to:
determine a respective granularity of a timing adjustment value for each of a plurality of carriers based at least in part on a timing adjustment command indicating the timing adjustment value for a timing adjustment group (TAG) of the carriers that share the timing adjustment command, wherein the respective granularity is variable based at least in part on a numerology associated with a cell of the TAG; and
perform a timing adjustment based at least in part on the respective granularity of the timing adjustment value, wherein the timing adjustment command is interpreted differently for a first cell of the TAG than for a second cell of the TAG based at least in part on respective numerologies of the first cell and the second cell.
