Capability signaling
Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described herein. For example, a UE may transmit a radio capability identifier to a network entity. In some examples, the radio capability identifier may indicate a set of radio capabilities of the UE. In response to receiving the radio capability identifier, the network entity may determine feedback indicating whether the set of radio capabilities indicated by the radio capability identifier satisfy a respective radio capabilities of a radio capability profile for an application associated with the UE. The network entity may transmit the determined feedback to the UE and, in response, the UE may establish a session for the application associated with the UE.
