Various aspects described herein relate to techniques for frequency hopping for a wideband allocation in wireless communications. A wideband allocation of resources for transmitting uplink wireless communications can be determined, as well as a frequency hopping offset related to one or more narrowbands for transmitting uplink wireless communications. In addition, it can be determined whether to apply the frequency hopping offset to the wideband allocation in communicating data. The data can be communicated over resources related to the wideband allocation with the frequency hopping offset applied communicating, based on determining to apply the frequency hopping offset.
