Abstract

Various aspects of the present disclosure generally relate to wireless communication. In some aspects, a first wireless communication device (WCD) may transmit, to a second WCD, information associated with a power spectral density (PSD), the information including a PSD range that may be used to transmit a communication. The WCD may transmit, to the second WCD, the communication based at least in part on the transmission of the information. Numerous other aspects are described.
