1. A method of wireless communication, comprising:
identifying, by a first wireless communication device, a configuration for multiplexing, in the time domain, a cyclic prefix (CP)-based waveform signal in a first transmission period and a first guard interval (GI)-based waveform signal in a second transmission period after the first transmission period; and
communicating, by the first wireless communication device with a second wireless communication device, the first GI-based waveform signal in the second transmission period, the second transmission period including a plurality of first symbols, wherein a beginning symbol of the first GI-based waveform and of the plurality of first symbols includes one or more repetitions of a reference signal sequence based on the configuration, the one or more repetitions of the reference signal sequence followed by a first GI such that the first GI is dependent on the one or more repetitions of the reference signal sequence and independent of the CP-based waveform signal in the first transmission period.
