Claim 25:
26. An apparatus for wireless communication, comprising:
a processor,
memory coupled with the processor; and
instructions stored in the memory and executable by the processor to cause the apparatus to:
determine a downlink configuration comprising a set of resources for transmitting downlink transmissions to a user equipment (UE);

determine, based at least in part on the downlink configuration, an uplink configuration comprising a set of resources for receiving scheduling requests from the UE at a plurality of scheduling request occasions, wherein the plurality of scheduling request occasions are arranged according to a non-uniform spacing pattern in the time domain, wherein the non-uniform spacing pattern comprises at least one of:
a repeating periodicity format defining periodicities between adjacent scheduling request occasions of the plurality of scheduling request occasions; or
a repeating offset format defining time offsets between a reference time and a set of adjacent scheduling request occasions of the plurality of scheduling request occasions; and
receive, from the UE, one or more scheduling requests based at least in part on the uplink configuration.
