1. An apparatus for wireless communications by a user equipment (UE), comprising:
at least one memory having executable instructions stored thereon; and
at least one processor configured to execute the executable instructions to cause the apparatus to:
receive, from a network entity, configuration information identifying a time domain duplexing (TDD) slot pattern and a phase coherence configuration to apply to repetitions of uplink channel transmissions that cross slot boundaries for consecutive uplink slots in the TDD slot pattern;
receive scheduling information scheduling a plurality of repetitions of an uplink channel transmission across one or more slot boundaries of the consecutive uplink slots, wherein the phase coherence configuration indicates that (i) phase coherence is to be maintained across at least a first repetition of the plurality of repetitions that crosses at least one slot boundary of the one or more slot boundaries and (ii) phase coherence is to be broken at a repetition boundary between the first repetition and a second repetition of the plurality of repetitions, the repetition boundary occurring within an uplink slot of the consecutive uplink slots; and
transmit the plurality of repetitions of the uplink channel transmission based on the TDD slot pattern and the phase coherence configuration identified in the configuration information.
