User equipment (ue) capabilities and light adaptation

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

• at least one processor;
• and
• one or more memories coupled to the at least one processor, the one or more memories storing instructions executable by the at least one processor, directly or after compilation, to cause the apparatus to:
• transmit a capability message indicating a set of parameters for which the UE supports switching between one or more states of a bandwidth part;
• receive a control message indicating at least a first state corresponding to the bandwidth part and a second state corresponding to the bandwidth part, wherein the first state corresponds to a first subset of one or more parameter values of the set of parameters, and the second state corresponds to a second subset of one or more parameter values of the set of parameters, based at least in part on the capability message;
• receive, based on the capability message, a downlink control information message indicating the first state of the bandwidth part;
• and
• perform wireless communications via the bandwidth part and using the first subset of one or more parameter values based at least in part on the downlink control information message.

• and
• one or more memories coupled to the at least one processor, the one or more memories storing instructions executable by the at least one processor, directly or after compilation, to cause the apparatus to:
• receive a control message indicating at least a first state of two or more states corresponding to a bandwidth part and a second state of the two or more states corresponding to the bandwidth part, wherein each state is associated with a set of parameter values;
• communicate in accordance with the first state and a first set of parameter values or the second state and a second set of parameters in a radio resource control connected mode;
• receive a radio resource control connection release message indicating a first state of two or more states;
• reconnect to a network entity according to the first state indicated in the connection release message;
• and
• communicate in accordance with the first state indicated in the connection release message in accordance with the reconnecting.
