Abstract
Various aspects of the present disclosure generally relate to wireless communication. In some aspects, a user equipment (UE) may select a maximum supported rank for reception that is capped based at least in part on one or more impacted antennas of the UE that are unavailable due to sounding reference signal (SRS) switching that switched at least one antenna of the UE. The UE may transmit an indication of the maximum supported rank. The UE may receive a selected rank that is no greater than the maximum supported rank. The UE may receive, from one or more non-impacted antennas of the UE, a communication using the selected rank. Numerous other aspects are described, such as downlink blanking, desensing parameters, canceling SRS switching, and uplink blanking for impacted antennas.
