    "patent_abstract": "Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communication at a user equipment (UE) are described. A UE may receive control signaling configuring periodic resources for receiving semi-persistent scheduled downlink transmissions and may receive a control message indicating a change to a transmission time interval format. The UE may identify a conflict for a symbol period between uplink transmission of feedback for a first semi-persistent scheduled downlink transmission and downlink reception based on the change to the transmission time interval format. The UE may then transmit, in an uplink shared channel resource of the transmission time interval format that differs from the symbol period, an uplink message including uplink data multiplexed with the feedback based on the conflict.",
