1. A method of wireless communication at a wireless device, comprising:
transitioning between use of a mobile termination (MT) function at the wireless device and use of a distributed unit (DU) function; and
scheduling a communication with a child node of the wireless device using the DU function of the wireless device based on whether or not one or more guard symbols are provided for an allocation from a parent node for the MT function, wherein:
in response to the one or more guard symbols being provided for the allocation from the parent node and a number of the one or more guard symbols being equal to a number of requested guard symbols of the wireless device, the wireless device schedules the communication using the DU function without adjustment; and
in response to the one or more guard symbols being provided for the allocation from the parent node and the number of the one or more guard symbols being less than the number of requested guard symbols of the wireless device, the wireless device schedules the communication using the DU function based on interference conditions.
