A method, an apparatus, and a computer program product for wireless communication are provided. The apparatus may receive an indication of a traffic type, wherein the indication is received via a first radiofrequency (RF) band. The apparatus may configure the apparatus to switch from a first antenna subarray operation that uses a first set of antenna subarrays to a second antenna subarray operation that uses a second set of antenna subarrays based at least in part on receiving the indication of the traffic type, wherein the second antenna subarray operation uses a second RF band for a communication. The apparatus may transmit the communication using the second antenna subarray operation.
