Abstract
Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described for antenna selection and reporting for multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) communications. One or more grouping parameters may be provided to a wireless node, which may indicate a subset of antennas that are to be used for MIMO communications, may indicate one or more target nodes for MIMO communications, or combinations thereof. The wireless node may measure one or more channel parameters based on the grouping parameters and determine one or more antenna subsets or target nodes that meet MIMO communication parameters (e.g., an antenna group or target node that will support a certain rank of MIMO communications). The wireless node may report an indication of the identified antenna subsets or target nodes to a control entity for scheduling of MIMO communications.
