## Abstract

Apparatus, methods, and computer-readable media for facilitating dynamic indication of emission suppression levels are disclosed herein. An example method for wireless communication at a first network node includes transmitting, to a second network node, first information indicating at least one emission suppression capability of the first network node. The example method also includes receiving, after the first information is transmitted to the second network node, second information indicating a first emission suppression level associated with a scheduled uplink transmission. The example method also includes transmitting the scheduled uplink transmission based on the first emission suppression level.
