1. An apparatus for wireless communication at a user equipment (UE), comprising:
a processor, and
memory coupled to the processor and configured to:
receive a grant scheduling repetition-based system information block transmissions for the UE, the grant indicating a mapping configuration identifying time-frequency resources for a second repetition of a system information block transmission relative to a first repetition of the system information block transmission;
receive, in a first subset bandwidth of a system bandwidth, the first repetition of the system information block transmission according to the grant;
receive, in a second subset bandwidth of the system bandwidth, the second repetition of the system information block transmission according to the grant and based at least in part on the mapping configuration; and
select a set of time-frequency resources for the second repetition of the system information block transmission based at least in part on an interleaving mapping indicated in the grant, wherein the mapping configuration comprises the interleaving mapping.
