Disclosed are techniques for radio frequency (RF) sensing. In an aspect, a network entity, such as a base station, may identify an opportunity for RF sensing during which a user equipment (UE) does not transmit signals, the opportunity comprising a guard period of the UE, a bandwidth part (BWP) switching period of the UE, or a beam switching period of the UE. The network entity may transmit an RF sensing signal, receive an RF sensing signal, or both, during the opportunity for RF sensing. In an aspect, a UE may determine an opportunity for a network entity to perform RF sensing while the UE does not transmit signals, the opportunity comprising a guard period of the UE, a BWP switching period of the UE, or a beam switching period of the UE. The UE may indicate, to the network entity, the opportunity for RF sensing.
