User equipment (UE) full duplex (FD) characteristics reporting and communication

An apparatus for wireless communication, comprising:

• a memory;
• and
• at least one processor coupled to the memory, the memory including instructions executable by the at least one processor to cause the apparatus to:
• report, by a user equipment (UE) of a wireless network to a base station of the network, one or more duplex communication characteristics supported by the UE, wherein the one or more duplex communication characteristics comprise one or more duplex communication modes;
• receiving, by the UE from the base station, a command to communicate in a reported mode;
• and
• communicate, by the UE with the base station, in accordance with the reported duplex communication characteristics the commanded mode.

A non-transitory computer-readable medium storing processor-executable code, the code when read and executed by at least one processor of an apparatus, causes the apparatus to:

• report, by a user equipment (UE) of a wireless network to a first transmission/reception point (base station) of the network, one or more duplex communication characteristics supported by the UE, wherein the one or more duplex communication characteristics comprise one or more duplex communication modes including at least communicating in a first direction with the base station and concurrently communicating in an opposite direction with a second base station;
• receiving, by the UE from the base station, a command to communicate in a reported mode;
• and
• communicate, by the UE with the base station, in accordance with the commanded mode.

An apparatus for wireless communications, comprising:

• means for reporting, by a user equipment (UE) of a wireless network to a base station of the network, one or more duplex communication characteristics supported by the UE wherein the one or more duplex communication characteristics comprise one or more duplex communication modes;
• receiving, by the UE from the base station, a command to communicate in a reported mode;
• and
• means for communicating, by the UE with the base station, in accordance with the commanded mode.
