Facilitating frequency selective scheduling in advanced networks (e.g., 4G, 5G, and beyond) with multiple transmission points is provided herein. Operations of a system can comprise facilitating an activation of a frequency selective scheduling based on identification of control channel elements used for a downlink control channel. The operations also can comprise instructing a user equipment device to report a subband channel quality indicator and a subband precoding matrix index based on a result of an evaluation of a metric determined based on channel conditions. Further, the operations can comprise scheduling the user equipment device with a subband based on the subband channel quality indicator and the subband precoding matrix index reported by the user equipment device.
