Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. In some examples, a user equipment (UE) may transmit a message indicating a capability of the UE to support power splitting for signals received at the UE for EH by the UE. In some examples, the UE may transmit, based on the capability of the UE to support power splitting, an indication of a power splitting factor for EH by the UE, the power splitting factor indicating a portion of received power for signals received at the UE to be used for EH. The UE may receive a signal to use for power splitting based at least in part on the capability of the UE to support power splitting for signals received at the UE for EH by the UE and the power splitting factor.
