1. An apparatus for wireless communications at a user equipment (UE), comprising:
at least one processor; and
memory coupled with the at least one processor, the memory storing instructions executable by the at least one processor to cause the apparatus to:
receive a message scheduling transmission of uplink control information in an uplink control channel resource;
receive an indication that the UE is scheduled to transmit the uplink control information via a first beam during the uplink control channel resource and via a second beam during the uplink control channel resource;
determine a number of repetitions associated with transmitting the uplink control information; and
transmit the uplink control information in accordance with an uplink control channel transmission configuration, the uplink control channel transmission configuration selected from inter-slot repetition, intra-uplink control channel resource beam hopping with repetition, intra-slot repetition, or any combination thereof based at least in part on the number of repetitions being greater than one.
