Claim 0:
1. A method for wireless communication at a wireless repeater, comprising:
receiving a control interface triggering configuration from a network entity, wherein the control interface triggering configuration comprises power threshold information for powering of a control interface of the wireless repeater;
receiving, from the network entity, a periodic signal during a configured time period, wherein the periodic signal is different from the control interface triggering configuration, wherein the configured time period comprises at least one symbol of a reference signal, and wherein the power threshold information comprises a power profile for the configured time period;
measuring one or more energy levels associated with the received periodic signal across the configured time period based on the received control interface triggering configuration; and
configuring the control interface based on the one or more measured energy levels and the control interface triggering configuration, wherein configuring the control interface comprises powering the control interface on or off for a first time duration based on the one or more measured energy levels matching the power profile, and wherein the control interface comprises digital circuitry configured to process control information communicated at the wireless repeater.
