8 tx pusch fallback to less tx pusch transmissions

Abstract

Example implementations include a method, apparatus and computer-readable medium of wireless communication by a user equipment, comprising receiving, from a network entity, an indication to reduce a number of antenna ports associated with uplink precoding. The implementations further include transmitting, to the network entity, a reference signal using the reduced number of antenna ports. The implementations further include receiving, from the network entity, a message indicating a Transmit Precoder Matrix Indicator (TPMI) associated with the reduced number of antenna ports.

Dependencies are inferred from the claim text.
