Application delay for power mode adaptation

A method for wireless communications, comprising:

• transmitting, to a user equipment, an indication of a common power mode adaptation for a plurality of component carriers in a carrier aggregation configuration;
• determining, based at least in part on transmitting the indication of the common power mode adaptation, a delay for applying the common power mode adaptation to the plurality of component carriers at the user equipment, wherein the delay comprises a common delay for each component carrier of the plurality of component carriers;
• and
• communicating, after the delay, with the user equipment on one or more component carriers of the plurality of component carriers based at least in part on the common power mode adaptation.

An apparatus for wireless communications at a user equipment, comprising:

• a processor,
• memory coupled with the processor;
• and
• instructions stored in the memory and executable by the processor to cause the apparatus to:
• monitor a plurality of component carriers in a carrier aggregation configuration;
• receive, based at least in part on the monitoring, an indication of a common power mode adaptation for the plurality of component carriers;
• determine a delay for applying the common power mode adaptation to the plurality of component carriers, wherein the delay comprises a common delay for each component carrier of the plurality of component carriers;
• apply the common power mode adaptation to the plurality of component carriers after the delay;
• and
• communicate, based at least in part on applying the common power mode adaptation, on one or more component carriers of the plurality of component carriers.
