1. An apparatus for wireless communication comprising:
a memory; and
one or more processors coupled to the memory, the memory and the one or more processors being configured to cause the apparatus to:
communicate with a device using a frame format, the frame format comprising a first symbol, a second symbol, and a third symbol, wherein:
the first symbol comprises a first data portion for a first user equipment (UE) and a first guard interval (GI) corresponding to the first UE;
the third symbol comprises a second data portion for a second UE and a second GI corresponding to the second UE, wherein the third symbol is later in time than the first symbol; and
the second symbol comprises a gap or a reference signal (RS), a third GI corresponding to the first UE, and a fourth GI corresponding to the second UE, wherein the second symbol is between the first and third symbol in time.
