Various aspects of the present disclosure generally relate to wireless communication. In some aspects, a user equipment (UE) may interleave a signal, that is to be transmitted using discrete Fourier transform (DFT) spread orthogonal frequency-division multiplexing (DFT-s-OFDM), and a negative of the signal to obtain an interleaved signal prior to performing a DFT on the interleaved signal. The UE may transmit a DFT-s-OFDM signal that is based at least in part on the interleaved signal. Numerous other aspects are provided.
