1. A method of wireless communication, comprising:
receiving, at a user equipment (UE), a slot format indicator in at least one slot of at least one component carrier of a plurality of component carriers from a network entity, where the at least one component carrier includes a group common Physical Downlink Control Channel (PDCCH), the slot format indicator conveyed by the group common PDCCH indicating slot structure information for one or more other component carriers from the plurality of component carriers, wherein the at least one component carrier provides uplink feedback for the one or more other component carriers scheduled based on an association between the slot format indicator and a corresponding Downlink Control Information (DCI) format that configures hybrid automatic repeat request (HARQ) acknowledgment reporting for cross-carrier scheduling; and
communicating, with the network entity, using the slot structure information for the one or more other component carriers.
