Bandwidth part configuration techniques for wireless communications systems

A method for wireless communications at a user equipment (UE), comprising:

• transmitting, to a network device, an indication of a bandwidth size based at least in part on a traffic burst size for application data traffic within a time period;
• receiving, from the network device, a control signal indicating a first bandwidth part based at least in part on transmitting the indication of the bandwidth size determined based at least in part on the traffic burst size, wherein the bandwidth size is estimated corresponding to a quantity of physical layer overhead corresponding to the application data traffic;
• and
• communicating the application data traffic with the network device using the first bandwidth part based at least in part on the control signal.

An apparatus for wireless communications at a network device, comprising:

• at least one processor, and
• at least one memory coupled with the at least one processor with instructions stored in the at least one memory, the instructions being executable by the at least one processor;
• to cause the apparatus to:
• select a first bandwidth part from a plurality of bandwidth parts, the first bandwidth part having a bandwidth size corresponding to a traffic burst size for application data traffic within a time period;
• transmit, to a user equipment (UE), a control signal indicating the first bandwidth part having the bandwidth size corresponding to the traffic burst size, wherein the bandwidth size is estimated corresponding to a quantity of physical layer overhead corresponding to the application data traffic;
• schedule transmission of the application data traffic using the first bandwidth part;
• and
• communicate the application data traffic with the UE using the first bandwidth part based at least in part on the scheduling.
