Aspects presented herein may enhance the configuration of the scheduling offset for communication devices within a channelized frequency band. In one aspect, a UE receives a PDCCH including a scheduling offset parameter. The PDCCH schedules one of a PDSCH for reception in a first sub-band within a BWP or provides an uplink scheduling grant of a PUSCH for transmission in a second sub-band within the BWP. The UE communicates with a base station based on one of a slot for receiving the PDSCH based on the first sub-band within the BWP and the scheduling offset parameter when the PDCCH schedules the PDSCH, or a slot for transmitting the PUSCH based on the second sub-band within the BWP and the scheduling offset parameter when a PUCCH is used to schedule the PUSCH.
