Systems, methods, and devices for wireless communication that support mechanisms for signaling metrics associated with antenna modules of a UE in a wireless communication system. A user equipment (UE) determines one or more metrics associated with at least one antenna module of the UE. The UE transmits a message including the one or more metrics associated with at least one antenna module of the UE (e.g., to a base station or to another sidelink UE). In certain aspects, the message including the one or more metrics is transmitted to the base station during an initial establishment of a communication session between the UE and the base station. In some aspects, the UE transmits the message including the one or more metrics as a broadcast message, in a radio resource control (RRC) message, and/or in a medium access control (MAC)-control element (CE) message.

An antenna is described. The antenna includes a first plurality of first elements. Each of the first elements is dual polarized and configured to support a first set of bands and a second set of bands that is mutually exclusive from the first set of bands. The antenna also includes a second plurality of second elements. Each of the second elements is dual polarized and configured to support the second set of bands. The second plurality of second elements is interleaved with the first plurality of first elements.

A dual-band antenna array may be provided. The dual-band antenna array may comprise a trace split, a first frequency branch, and a second frequency branch. The trace split may feed the first frequency branch and the second frequency branch. The first frequency branch may comprise a first frequency branch geometry that may cause a majority of a current of a signal fed into the trace split to feed the second frequency branch when the signal comprises a second frequency. The second frequency branch may comprise a second frequency branch geometry that may cause the majority of the current of the signal fed into the trace split to feed the first frequency branch when the signal comprises a first frequency.
