Bandwidth part switching for network devices

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

• transmitting, to a network entity, a capability message indicating that the UE is capable of performing a bandwidth part switching procedure of an active bandwidth part of the UE to a respective target bandwidth part;
• receiving, from the network entity and based at least in part on the capability message, a configuration message indicating for the UE to perform the bandwidth part switching procedure in response to a bandwidth part switch command that comprises an indication of a respective grant in a respective target bandwidth part;
• receiving, from the network entity and based at least in part on the configuration message, a bandwidth part switch command that comprises an indication of a grant in a target bandwidth part of a plurality of bandwidth parts, wherein the bandwidth part switch command instructs the UE to switch the active bandwidth part of the UE to the target bandwidth part based at least in part on the indication of the grant in the target bandwidth part;
• and
• transmitting, to the network entity, a feedback message in response to the bandwidth part switch command, wherein the feedback message indicates whether the UE is to accept the switch to the active bandwidth part of the UE to the target bandwidth part in response to the bandwidth part switch command.

A non-transitory computer-readable medium storing code for wireless communications, the code comprising instructions executable by one or more processors to:

• transmit, to a network entity, a capability message indicating that a user equipment (UE) is capable of performing a bandwidth part switching procedure of an active bandwidth part of the UE to a respective target bandwidth part;
• receive, from the network entity and based at least in part on the capability message, a configuration message indicating for the UE to perform the bandwidth part switching procedure in response to a bandwidth part switch command that comprises an indication of a respective grant in a respective target bandwidth part;
• receive, from the network entity and based at least in part on the configuration message, a bandwidth part switch command that comprises an indication of a grant in a target bandwidth part of a plurality of bandwidth parts, wherein the bandwidth part switch command instructs the UE to switch the active bandwidth part of the UE to the target bandwidth part based at least in part on the indication of the grant in the target bandwidth part;
• and
• transmit, to the network entity, a feedback message in response to the bandwidth part switch command, wherein the feedback message indicates whether the UE is to accept the switch to the active bandwidth part of the UE to the target bandwidth part in response to the bandwidth part switch command.
