1. A method for wireless communications at a user equipment (UE), comprising:
transmitting, to a network device, one or more reference signals;
receiving control signaling indicating a rank adaptation parameter for communications with the network device, wherein the rank adaptation parameter is based at least in part on the one or more reference signals, and wherein the rank adaptation parameter indicates a quantity of frequency resources or a threshold;
determining, based at least in part on the quantity of frequency resources or the threshold indicated in the rank adaptation parameter, a first rank for communicating with the network device in a first set of frequency resources and a second rank for communicating with the network device in a second set of frequency resources, the second rank being lower than the first rank; and
communicating with the network device in the first set of frequency resources according to the first rank and in the second set of frequency resources according to the second rank.
