Various aspects of the present disclosure generally relate to wireless communication. In some aspects, a user equipment (UE) may allocate a first amount of power to one or more radios for a time window based on radio frequency (RF) exposure information and one or more other criteria. The UE may allocate a second amount of power to a selected channel or communication utilized by at least one radio of the one or more radios for one or more time frames within the time window based on the first amount of power allocated to the at least one radio for the time window. The UE may transmit the selected channel or communication based on the first amount of power or the second amount of power. Numerous other aspects are described.

Allocation of transmit power in compliance with RF exposure requirements

Various aspects of the present disclosure generally relate to wireless communication. A user equipment (UE) may configure a first initial set of maximum transmit powers for a first subscriber module. The UE may configure a second initial set of maximum transmit powers for a second subscriber module. The UE may configure a first maximum transmit power associated with a first connection for the first subscriber module. The UE may configure, independently of the configuration of the first maximum transmit power, a second maximum transmit power associated with the second connection. The UE may transmit based at least in part on at least one of the first maximum transmit power or the second maximum transmit power. Numerous other aspects are described.

Techniques for power control for dual subscribers

Techniques and apparatus for configurable radio frequency (RF) exposure compliance based on region. An example method of wireless communication by a user equipment (UE) generally includes identifying a region in which the UE is located, selecting at least one of a mode or one or more parameters for RF exposure compliance based on the identified region, and transmitting a signal at a transmission power level based at least in part on the at least one of the selected mode or the selected one or more parameters.

Configurable radio frequency exposure compliance based on region

Certain aspects of the present disclosure provide techniques for exception-robust time-averaged radio frequency (RF) exposure compliance continuity. A method that may be performed by a user equipment (UE) generally includes transmitting a first signal at a first transmission power based on time-averaged RF exposure measurements over a time window and storing RF exposure information associated with the time window. The method may also include detecting that an exception event associated with the UE occurred and transmitting a second signal at a second transmission power based at least in part on the stored RF exposure information in response to the detection of the event.

Exception-robust time-averaged radio frequency exposure compliance continuity

Certain aspects of the present disclosure provide techniques for operating a wireless communication device pursuant to radio frequency (RF) exposure with antenna grouping. An example method of wireless communication by a user equipment generally includes accessing a stored backoff factor associated with an antenna group among a plurality of antenna groups. The method also includes transmitting, from at least one transmit antenna in the antenna group, a signal at a transmission power level based on the backoff factor in compliance with an RF exposure requirement.

Time-averaged radio frequency (RF) exposure per antenna group

Various aspects of the present disclosure generally relate to wireless communication. In some aspects, an apparatus may determine a time-averaged power limit of a set of antennas. The apparatus may modify an antenna switching configuration based at least in part on the time-averaged power limit. The apparatus may transmit a signal using an antenna, from the set of antennas, associated with the modified antenna switching configuration, wherein the antenna is associated with a higher power limit than one or more other antennas. Numerous other aspects are described.

Techniques for antenna switched diversity management

Certain aspects of the present disclosure provide techniques for radio frequency (RF) exposure with antenna grouping. An example method for grouping antennas for RF exposure compliance by a processing system generally includes determining RF exposure distributions per transmit antenna configuration for a plurality of transmit antennas and assigning the plurality of transmit antennas to a plurality of antenna groups based on the RF exposure distributions.
