1. A base station, comprising:
at least one antenna;
at least one radio, wherein the at least one radio is configured to perform cellular communication using at least one radio access technology (RAT);
one or more processors coupled to the at least one radio, wherein the one or more processors and the at least one radio are configured to perform voice and/or data communications;
wherein the one or more processors and the at least one radio are configured to:
receive, from a user equipment device (UE) via a radio resource control (RRC) message, an indication that the UE has a transmission limitation, wherein the transmission limitation causes the UE to not transmit continuously in uplink (UL);
transmit, to the UE, an UL grant on a physical downlink control channel (PDCCH) for transmission on physical uplink shared channel (PUSCH) resources assigned to the UE; and
receive, from the UE, data according to the UL grant on a first time portion of the PUSCH resources assigned to the UE, wherein the base station does not receive data from the UE during a specified time portion of the PUSCH resources assigned to the UE in accordance with the indicated transmission limitation.
