Communication of satellite information for non-terrestrial networks

A method for wireless communications at a satellite, comprising:

• identifying a satellite behavior change to occur for a satellite of a non-terrestrial network for cellular communications;
• formatting the satellite behavior change to be sent in a dedicated signaling between a user equipment (UE) and the satellite, or in one or more system information blocks (SIBs), or both;
• and
• signaling, by the satellite, the satellite behavior change to the UE based at least in part on the formatting.

An apparatus for wireless communications at a user equipment (UE), comprising:

• a processor;
• memory coupled with the processor;
• and
• instructions stored in the memory and executable by the processor to cause the apparatus to:
• obtain, from a satellite servicing the UE, a signaling of a satellite behavior change to occur for the satellite, wherein the satellite is included in a non-terrestrial network for cellular communications;
• and
• adjust one or more UE parameters based on the obtained signaling, wherein the one or more UE parameters are associated with satellite or beam selection and reselection, handover of the UE, transmit power control, or any combination thereof.
