Abstract
Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. A network entity may indicate to a user equipment (UE) (e.g., in a downlink control message) a capability of the network entity to disable power amplifiers for downlink transmissions. In response to the capability indication, the UE may estimate and report to the network entity the delay spread and antenna array loss threshold of a downlink signal. Based on the reported delay spread and antenna array loss threshold, the network entity may determine a quantity of power amplifiers that may be disabled for downlink transmission without reducing the received signal power at the UE below a minimum threshold. The power amplifiers that the network entity disables may be the power amplifiers with input powers less than a threshold (e.g., less than a highest input power by a threshold).
