1. An apparatus for wireless communication at a user equipment (UE), comprising:
one or more memories that store processor-executable code; and
one or more processors coupled with the one or more memories and configured to, in association with executing the code, cause the apparatus to:
receive, from a base station, an indication of a plurality of transmission parts that each comprise a respective set of time resources and frequency resources, at least one of the time resources and the frequency resources included in the respective set of time resources and frequency resources being different for each transmission part of the plurality of transmission parts, and the indication associating a first transmission part of the plurality of transmission parts with a first waveform type and a second transmission part of the plurality of transmission parts with a second waveform type;
communicate with the base station, during a first time period, over the first transmission part via signaling that is in accordance with the first waveform type;
receive, from the base station, an activation message for one or more transmission parts of the plurality of transmission parts including the second transmission part; and
communicate with the base station, during a second time period after the first time period, over the second transmission part via signaling that is in accordance with the second waveform type and the activation message.
