Abstract

Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. A first user equipment (UE) may receive control signaling identifying a set of antenna panels of the first UE usable for measuring crosslink interference (CLI) experienced within a set of CLI resources. The first UE may perform CLI measurements on signals received from a second UE via the set of CLI resources and the set of antenna panels. The first UE may then transmit a CLI report associated with CLI measurements performed on the signals received via an antenna panel of the set of antenna panels. In some implementations, the CLI report includes an indication of the antenna panel, an indication one or more CLI resources from the set of CLI resources associated with the antenna panel, or a combination thereof.
