1. A method of wireless communication performed by a user equipment (UE), comprising:
receiving an uplink grant scheduling an uplink transmission that is not aligned with a fixed frame period (FFP) boundary configured for the UE;
receiving downlink control information (DCI) including an indication that the UE is to initiate a channel occupancy time (COT) acquisition in association with transmitting the uplink transmission;
modifying the indication based at least in part on the uplink transmission not being aligned with the FFP boundary and the indication indicating that the UE is to initiate the COT acquisition; and
transmitting the uplink transmission based at least in part on the uplink grant and after the modification of the indication.
