CROSS-REFERENCE TO RELATED APPLICATION 
     This Patent Application claims priority to U.S. Provisional Patent Application No. 63/199,675, filed on Jan. 15, 2021, entitled “TECHNIQUES FOR MANAGING POWER AMPLIFIER RELIABILITY FOR MULTI-SIM ANTENNA SWITCHING CONCURRENCY,” and assigned to the assignee hereof. The disclosure of the prior Application is considered part of and is incorporated by reference into this Patent Application. 
    
    
     FIELD OF THE DISCLOSURE 
     Aspects of the present disclosure generally relate to wireless communication and to techniques and apparatuses for managing power amplifier reliability for multiple subscriber identity module (multi-SIM) antenna switching concurrency. 
     DESCRIPTION OF RELATED ART 
     Wireless communication systems are widely deployed to provide various telecommunication services such as telephony, video, data, messaging, and broadcasts. Typical wireless communication systems may employ multiple-access technologies capable of supporting communication with multiple users by sharing available system resources (e.g., bandwidth, transmit power, or the like). Examples of such multiple-access technologies include code division multiple access (CDMA) systems, time division multiple access (TDMA) systems, frequency-division multiple access (FDMA) systems, orthogonal frequency-division multiple access (OFDMA) systems, single-carrier frequency-division multiple access (SC-FDMA) systems, time division synchronous code division multiple access (TD-SCDMA) systems, and Long Term Evolution (LTE). LTE/LTE-Advanced is a set of enhancements to the Universal Mobile Telecommunications System (UMTS) mobile standard promulgated by the Third Generation Partnership Project (3GPP). 
     A wireless network may include a number of base stations (BSs) that can support communication for a number of user equipment (UEs). A UE may communicate with a BS via the downlink and uplink. “Downlink” (or “forward link”) refers to the communication link from the BS to the UE, and “uplink” (or “reverse link”) refers to the communication link from the UE to the BS. As will be described in more detail herein, a BS may be referred to as a Node B, a gNB, an access point (AP), a radio head, a transmit receive point (TRP), a New Radio (NR) BS, a 5G Node B, or the like. 
     The above multiple access technologies have been adopted in various telecommunication standards to provide a common protocol that enables different user equipment to communicate on a municipal, national, regional, and even global level. NR, which may also be referred to as 5G, is a set of enhancements to the LTE mobile standard promulgated by the 3GPP. NR is designed to better support mobile broadband Internet access by improving spectral efficiency, lowering costs, improving services, making use of new spectrum, and better integrating with other open standards using orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) with a cyclic prefix (CP) (CP-OFDM) on the downlink (DL), using CP-OFDM and/or SC-FDM (e.g., also known as discrete Fourier transform spread OFDM (DFT-s-OFDM)) on the uplink (UL), as well as supporting beamforming, multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) antenna technology, and carrier aggregation. As the demand for mobile broadband access continues to increase, further improvements in LTE, NR, and other radio access technologies remain useful. 
     SUMMARY 
     In some aspects, a method of wireless communication performed by a user equipment (UE) includes detecting a first communication, associated with a first subscriber identity module (SIM) operating in a connected mode, that is at least partially overlapping in a time domain with a second communication associated with a second SIM operating in an idle mode; detecting that a transmit chain associated with the first SIM and a receive chain associated with the second SIM are sharing an antenna switch; and performing a preventive action based at least in part on the first communication associated with the first SIM overlapping in the time domain with the second communication associated with the second SIM while the transmit chain associated with the first SIM and the receive chain associated with the second SIM are sharing the antenna switch. 
     In some aspects, the second communication associated with the second SIM includes activity to prepare or program one or more components in the receive chain associated with the second SIM to demodulate or decode a received signal. 
     In some aspects, the preventive action is to limit an allowable output power from the transmit chain associated with the first SIM to a maximum value that satisfies a ruggedness or reliability parameter associated with a power amplifier in the transmit chain associated with the first SIM. 
     In some aspects, the maximum value for the allowable output power is a minimum of the ruggedness or reliability parameter associated with the power amplifier and one or more additional limits on the allowable output power from the transmit chain associated with the first SIM. 
     In some aspects, the preventive action is to stop or suspend transmission activity associated with the first SIM while the first communication associated with the first SIM is overlapping in the time domain with the second communication associated with the second SIM. 
     In some aspects, the method includes resuming the transmission activity associated with the first SIM based at least in part on the first communication associated with the first SIM ceasing to overlap in the time domain with the second communication associated with the second SIM. 
     In some aspects, the preventive action is to deny the second communication associated with the second SIM that overlaps in the time domain with the first communication associated with the first SIM. 
     In some aspects, the method includes determining a first priority for the first communication associated with the first SIM and a second priority for the second communication associated with the second SIM; and selecting the preventive action based at least in part on the first priority and the second priority. 
     In some aspects, the preventive action is to limit an allowable output power from the transmit chain associated with the first SIM or to stop or suspend transmission activity associated with the first SIM based at least in part on the second communication associated with the second SIM having a higher priority than the first communication associated with the first SIM. 
     In some aspects, the preventive action is to deny the second communication associated with the second SIM that overlaps in the time domain with the first communication associated with the first SIM based at least in part on the first communication associated with the first SIM having a higher priority than the second communication associated with the second SIM.

     DETAILED DESCRIPTION 
     Various aspects of the disclosure are described more fully hereinafter with reference to the accompanying drawings. This disclosure may, however, be embodied in many different forms and should not be construed as limited to any specific structure or function presented throughout this disclosure. Rather, these aspects are provided so that this disclosure will be thorough and complete, and will fully convey the scope of the disclosure to those skilled in the art. Based on the teachings herein, one skilled in the art should appreciate that the scope of the disclosure is intended to cover any aspect of the disclosure disclosed herein, whether implemented independently of or combined with any other aspect of the disclosure. For example, an apparatus may be implemented or a method may be practiced using any number of the aspects set forth herein. In addition, the scope of the disclosure is intended to cover such an apparatus or method which is practiced using other structure, functionality, or structure and functionality in addition to or other than the various aspects of the disclosure set forth herein. It should be understood that any aspect of the disclosure disclosed herein may be embodied by one or more elements of a claim. 
     Several aspects of telecommunication systems will now be presented with reference to various apparatuses and techniques. These apparatuses and techniques will be described in the following detailed description and illustrated in the accompanying drawings by various blocks, modules, components, circuits, steps, processes, algorithms, or the like (collectively referred to as “elements”). These elements may be implemented using hardware, software, or combinations thereof. Whether such elements are implemented as hardware or software depends upon the particular application and design constraints imposed on the overall system. 
     It should be noted that while aspects may be described herein using terminology commonly associated with a 5G or NR radio access technology (RAT), aspects of the present disclosure can be applied to other RATs, such as a 3G RAT, a 4G RAT, and/or a RAT subsequent to 5G (e.g., 6G). 
       FIG. 1  is a diagram illustrating an example of a wireless network  100 , in accordance with the present disclosure. The wireless network  100  may be or may include elements of a 5G (NR) network and/or an LTE network, among other examples. The wireless network  100  may include a number of base stations  110  (shown as BS  110   a,  BS  110   b,  BS  110   c,  and BS  110   d ) and other network entities. A base station (BS) is an entity that communicates with user equipment (UEs) and may also be referred to as an NR BS, a Node B, a gNB, a 5G node B (NB), an access point, a transmit receive point (TRP), or the like. Each BS may provide communication coverage for a particular geographic area. In 3GPP, the term “cell” can refer to a coverage area of a BS and/or a BS subsystem serving this coverage area, depending on the context in which the term is used. 
     A BS may provide communication coverage for a macro cell, a pico cell, a femto cell, and/or another type of cell. A macro cell may cover a relatively large geographic area (e.g., several kilometers in radius) and may allow unrestricted access by UEs with service subscription. A pico cell may cover a relatively small geographic area and may allow unrestricted access by UEs with service subscription. A femto cell may cover a relatively small geographic area (e.g., a home) and may allow restricted access by UEs having association with the femto cell (e.g., UEs in a closed subscriber group (CSG)). A BS for a macro cell may be referred to as a macro BS. ABS for a pico cell may be referred to as a pico BS. ABS for a femto cell may be referred to as a femto BS or a home BS. In the example shown in  FIG. 1 , a BS  110   a  may be a macro BS for a macro cell  102   a,  a BS  110   b  may be a pico BS for a pico cell  102   b,  and a BS  110   c  may be a femto BS for a femto cell  102   c.  A BS may support one or multiple (e.g., three) cells. The terms “eNB”, “base station”, “NR BS”, “gNB”, “TRP”, “AP”, “node B”, “5G NB”, and “cell” may be used interchangeably herein. 
     In some aspects, a cell may not necessarily be stationary, and the geographic area of the cell may move according to the location of a mobile BS. In some aspects, the BSs may be interconnected to one another and/or to one or more other BSs or network nodes (not shown) in the wireless network  100  through various types of backhaul interfaces, such as a direct physical connection or a virtual network, using any suitable transport network. 
     Wireless network  100  may also include relay stations. A relay station is an entity that can receive a transmission of data from an upstream station (e.g., a BS or a UE) and send a transmission of the data to a downstream station (e.g., a UE or a BS). A relay station may also be a UE that can relay transmissions for other UEs. In the example shown in  FIG. 1 , a relay BS  110   d  may communicate with macro BS  110   a  and a UE  120   d  in order to facilitate communication between BS  110   a  and UE  120   d.  A relay BS may also be referred to as a relay station, a relay base station, a relay, or the like. 
     Wireless network  100  may be a heterogeneous network that includes BSs of different types, such as macro BSs, pico BSs, femto BSs, relay BSs, or the like. These different types of BSs may have different transmit power levels, different coverage areas, and different impacts on interference in wireless network  100 . For example, macro BSs may have a high transmit power level (e.g., 5 to 40 watts) whereas pico BSs, femto BSs, and relay BSs may have lower transmit power levels (e.g., 0.1 to 2 watts). 
     A network controller  130  may couple to a set of BSs and may provide coordination and control for these BSs. Network controller  130  may communicate with the BSs via a backhaul. The BSs may also communicate with one another, directly or indirectly, via a wireless or wireline backhaul. 
     UEs  120  (e.g.,  120   a,    120   b,    120   c ) may be dispersed throughout wireless network  100 , and each UE may be stationary or mobile. A UE may also be referred to as an access terminal, a terminal, a mobile station, a subscriber unit, a station, or the like. A UE may be a cellular phone (e.g., a smart phone), a personal digital assistant (PDA), a wireless modem, a wireless communication device, a handheld device, a laptop computer, a cordless phone, a wireless local loop (WLL) station, a tablet, a camera, a gaming device, a netbook, a smartbook, an ultrabook, a medical device or equipment, biometric sensors/devices, wearable devices (smart watches, smart clothing, smart glasses, smart wrist bands, smart jewelry (e.g., smart ring, smart bracelet)), an entertainment device (e.g., a music or video device, or a satellite radio), a vehicular component or sensor, smart meters/sensors, industrial manufacturing equipment, a global positioning system device, or any other suitable device that is configured to communicate via a wireless or wired medium. 
     Some UEs may be considered machine-type communication (MTC) or evolved or enhanced machine-type communication (eMTC) UEs. MTC and eMTC UEs include, for example, robots, drones, remote devices, sensors, meters, monitors, and/or location tags, that may communicate with a base station, another device (e.g., remote device), or some other entity. A wireless node may provide, for example, connectivity for or to a network (e.g., a wide area network such as Internet or a cellular network) via a wired or wireless communication link. Some UEs may be considered Internet-of-Things (IoT) devices, and/or may be implemented as NB-IoT (narrowband internet of things) devices. Some UEs may be considered a Customer Premises Equipment (CPE). UE  120  may be included inside a housing that houses components of UE  120 , such as processor components and/or memory components. In some aspects, the processor components and the memory components may be coupled together. For example, the processor components (e.g., one or more processors) and the memory components (e.g., a memory) may be operatively coupled, communicatively coupled, electronically coupled, and/or electrically coupled. 
     In general, any number of wireless networks may be deployed in a given geographic area. Each wireless network may support a particular RAT and may operate on one or more frequencies. A RAT may also be referred to as a radio technology, an air interface, or the like. A frequency may also be referred to as a carrier, a frequency channel, or the like. Each frequency may support a single RAT in a given geographic area in order to avoid interference between wireless networks of different RATs. In some cases, NR or 5G RAT networks may be deployed. 
     In some aspects, two or more UEs  120  (e.g., shown as UE  120   a  and UE  120   e ) may communicate directly using one or more sidelink channels (e.g., without using a base station  110  as an intermediary to communicate with one another). For example, the UEs  120  may communicate using peer-to-peer (P2P) communications, device-to-device (D2D) communications, a vehicle-to-everything (V2X) protocol (e.g., which may include a vehicle-to-vehicle (V2V) protocol or a vehicle-to-infrastructure (V2I) protocol), and/or a mesh network. In this case, the UE  120  may perform scheduling operations, resource selection operations, and/or other operations described elsewhere herein as being performed by the base station  110 . 
     Devices of wireless network  100  may communicate using the electromagnetic spectrum, which may be subdivided based on frequency or wavelength into various classes, bands, channels, or the like. For example, devices of wireless network  100  may communicate using an operating band having a first frequency range (FR1), which may span from 410 MHz to 7.125 GHz, and/or may communicate using an operating band having a second frequency range (FR2), which may span from 24.25 GHz to 52.6 GHz. The frequencies between FR1 and FR2 are sometimes referred to as mid-band frequencies. Although a portion of FR1 is greater than 6 GHz, FR1 is often referred to as a “sub-6 GHz” band. Similarly, FR2 is often referred to as a “millimeter wave” band despite being different from the extremely high frequency (EHF) band (30 GHz-300 GHz) which is identified by the International Telecommunications Union (ITU) as a “millimeter wave” band. Thus, unless specifically stated otherwise, it should be understood that the term “sub-6 GHz” or the like, if used herein, may broadly represent frequencies less than 6 GHz, frequencies within FR1, and/or mid-band frequencies (e.g., greater than 7.125 GHz). Similarly, unless specifically stated otherwise, it should be understood that the term “millimeter wave” or the like, if used herein, may broadly represent frequencies within the EHF band, frequencies within FR2, and/or mid-band frequencies (e.g., less than 24.25 GHz). It is contemplated that the frequencies included in FR1 and FR2 may be modified, and techniques described herein are applicable to those modified frequency ranges. 
     As indicated above,  FIG. 1  is provided as an example. Other examples may differ from what is described with regard to  FIG. 1 . 
       FIG. 2  is a diagram illustrating an example  200  of a base station  110  in communication with a UE  120  in a wireless network  100 , in accordance with the present disclosure. Base station  110  may be equipped with T antennas  234   a  through  234   t,  and UE  120  may be equipped with R antennas  252   a  through  252   r,  where in general T≥1 and R≥1. 
     At base station  110 , a transmit processor  220  may receive data from a data source  212  for one or more UEs, select one or more modulation and coding schemes (MCS) for each UE based at least in part on channel quality indicators (CQIs) received from the UE, process (e.g., encode and modulate) the data for each UE based at least in part on the MCS(s) selected for the UE, and provide data symbols for all UEs. Transmit processor  220  may also process system information (e.g., for semi-static resource partitioning information (SRPI)) and control information (e.g., CQI requests, grants, and/or upper layer signaling) and provide overhead symbols and control symbols. Transmit processor  220  may also generate reference symbols for reference signals (e.g., a cell-specific reference signal (CRS) or a demodulation reference signal (DMRS)) and synchronization signals (e.g., a primary synchronization signal (PSS) or a secondary synchronization signal (SSS)). A transmit (TX) multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) processor  230  may perform spatial processing (e.g., precoding) on the data symbols, the control symbols, the overhead symbols, and/or the reference symbols, if applicable, and may provide T output symbol streams to T modulators (MODs)  232   a  through  232   t.  Each modulator  232  may process a respective output symbol stream (e.g., for OFDM) to obtain an output sample stream. Each modulator  232  may further process (e.g., convert to analog, amplify, filter, and upconvert) the output sample stream to obtain a downlink signal. T downlink signals from modulators  232   a  through  232   t  may be transmitted via T antennas  234   a  through  234   t,  respectively. 
     At UE  120 , antennas  252   a  through  252   r  may receive the downlink signals from base station  110  and/or other base stations and may provide received signals to demodulators (DEMODs)  254   a  through  254   r,  respectively. Each demodulator  254  may condition (e.g., filter, amplify, downconvert, and digitize) a received signal to obtain input samples. Each demodulator  254  may further process the input samples (e.g., for OFDM) to obtain received symbols. A MIMO detector  256  may obtain received symbols from all R demodulators  254   a  through  254   r,  perform MIMO detection on the received symbols if applicable, and provide detected symbols. A receive processor  258  may process (e.g., demodulate and decode) the detected symbols, provide decoded data for UE  120  to a data sink  260 , and provide decoded control information and system information to a controller/processor  280 . The term “controller/processor” may refer to one or more controllers, one or more processors, or a combination thereof. A channel processor may determine a reference signal received power (RSRP) parameter, a received signal strength indicator (RSSI) parameter, a reference signal received quality (RSRQ) parameter, and/or a CQI parameter, among other examples. In some aspects, one or more components of UE  120  may be included in a housing  284 . 
     Network controller  130  may include communication unit  294 , controller/processor  290 , and memory  292 . Network controller  130  may include, for example, one or more devices in a core network. Network controller  130  may communicate with base station  110  via communication unit  294 . 
     Antennas (e.g., antennas  234   a  through  234   t  and/or antennas  252   a  through  252   r ) may include, or may be included within, one or more antenna panels, antenna groups, sets of antenna elements, and/or antenna arrays, among other examples. An antenna panel, an antenna group, a set of antenna elements, and/or an antenna array may include one or more antenna elements. An antenna panel, an antenna group, a set of antenna elements, and/or an antenna array may include a set of coplanar antenna elements and/or a set of non-coplanar antenna elements. An antenna panel, an antenna group, a set of antenna elements, and/or an antenna array may include antenna elements within a single housing and/or antenna elements within multiple housings. An antenna panel, an antenna group, a set of antenna elements, and/or an antenna array may include one or more antenna elements coupled to one or more transmission and/or reception components, such as one or more components of  FIG. 2 . 
     On the uplink, at UE  120 , a transmit processor  264  may receive and process data from a data source  262  and control information (e.g., for reports that include RSRP, RSSI, RSRQ, and/or CQI) from controller/processor  280 . Transmit processor  264  may also generate reference symbols for one or more reference signals. The symbols from transmit processor  264  may be precoded by a TX MIMO processor  266  if applicable, further processed by modulators  254   a  through  254   r  (e.g., for DFT-s-OFDM or CP-OFDM), and transmitted to base station  110 . In some aspects, a modulator and a demodulator (e.g., MOD/DEMOD  254 ) of the UE  120  may be included in a modem of the UE  120 . In some aspects, the UE  120  includes a transceiver. The transceiver may include any combination of antenna(s)  252 , modulators and/or demodulators  254 , MIMO detector  256 , receive processor  258 , transmit processor  264 , and/or TX MIMO processor  266 . The transceiver may be used by a processor (e.g., controller/processor  280 ) and memory  282  to perform aspects of any of the methods described herein. 
     At base station  110 , the uplink signals from UE  120  and other UEs may be received by antennas  234 , processed by demodulators  232 , detected by a MIMO detector  236  if applicable, and further processed by a receive processor  238  to obtain decoded data and control information sent by UE  120 . Receive processor  238  may provide the decoded data to a data sink  239  and the decoded control information to controller/processor  240 . Base station  110  may include communication unit  244  and communicate to network controller  130  via communication unit  244 . Base station  110  may include a scheduler  246  to schedule UEs  120  for downlink and/or uplink communications. In some aspects, a modulator and a demodulator (e.g., MOD/DEMOD  232 ) of the base station  110  may be included in a modem of the base station  110 . In some aspects, the base station  110  includes a transceiver. The transceiver may include any combination of antenna(s)  234 , modulators and/or demodulators  232 , MIMO detector  236 , receive processor  238 , transmit processor  220 , and/or TX MIMO processor  230 . The transceiver may be used by a processor (e.g., controller/processor  240 ) and memory  242  to perform aspects of any of the methods described herein. 
     Controller/processor  240  of base station  110 , controller/processor  280  of UE  120 , and/or any other component(s) of  FIG. 2  may perform one or more techniques associated with managing power amplifier reliability for multi-subscriber identity module (SIM) antenna switching concurrency, as described in more detail elsewhere herein. For example, controller/processor  240  of base station  110 , controller/processor  280  of UE  120 , and/or any other component(s) of  FIG. 2  may perform or direct operations of, for example, process  700  of  FIG. 7  and/or other processes as described herein. Memories  242  and  282  may store data and program codes for base station  110  and UE  120 , respectively. In some aspects, memory  242  and/or memory  282  may include a non-transitory computer-readable medium storing one or more instructions (e.g., code and/or program code) for wireless communication. For example, the one or more instructions, when executed (e.g., directly, or after compiling, converting, and/or interpreting) by one or more processors of the base station  110  and/or the UE  120 , may cause the one or more processors, the UE  120 , and/or the base station  110  to perform or direct operations of, for example, process  700  of  FIG. 7  and/or other processes as described herein. In some aspects, executing instructions may include running the instructions, converting the instructions, compiling the instructions, and/or interpreting the instructions, among other examples. 
     In some aspects, the UE  120  includes means for detecting a first communication, associated with a first SIM operating in a connected mode, that is at least partially overlapping in a time domain with a second communication associated with a second SIM operating in an idle mode; means for detecting that a transmit chain associated with the first SIM and a receive chain associated with the second SIM are sharing an antenna switch; and/or means for performing a preventive action based at least in part on the first communication associated with the first SIM overlapping in the time domain with the second communication associated with the second SIM while the transmit chain associated with the first SIM and the receive chain associated with the second SIM are sharing the antenna switch. The means for the user equipment (UE) to perform operations described herein may include, for example, one or more of antenna  252 , demodulator  254 , MIMO detector  256 , receive processor  258 , transmit processor  264 , TX MIMO processor  266 , modulator  254 , controller/processor  280 , or memory  282 . 
     In some aspects, the UE  120  includes means for resuming the transmission activity associated with the first SIM based at least in part on the first communication associated with the first SIM ceasing to overlap in the time domain with the second communication associated with the second SIM. 
     In some aspects, the UE  120  includes means for determining a first priority for the first communication associated with the first SIM and a second priority for the second communication associated with the second SIM; and/or means for selecting the preventive action based at least in part on the first priority and the second priority. 
     While blocks in  FIG. 2  are illustrated as distinct components, the functions described above with respect to the blocks may be implemented in a single hardware, software, or combination component or in various combinations of components. For example, the functions described with respect to the transmit processor  264 , the receive processor  258 , and/or the TX MIMO processor  266  may be performed by or under the control of controller/processor  280 . 
     As indicated above,  FIG. 2  is provided as an example. Other examples may differ from what is described with regard to  FIG. 2 . 
       FIG. 3  is a diagram illustrating an example  300  of a transmit (Tx) chain  302  and a receive (Rx) chain  304  of a UE  120 , in accordance with the present disclosure. In some aspects, one or more components of Tx chain  302  may be implemented in transmit processor  264 , TX MIMO processor  266 , MOD/DEMOD  254 , and/or controller/processor  280 , as described above in connection with  FIG. 2 . In some aspects, Tx chain  302  may be implemented in UE  120  for transmitting data  306  (e.g., uplink data, an uplink reference signal, and/or uplink control information) to base station  110  on an uplink channel and/or another UE  120  on a sidelink channel. 
     An encoder  307  may alter a signal (e.g., a bitstream)  303  into data  306 . Data  306  to be transmitted is provided from encoder  307  as input to a serial-to-parallel (S/P) converter  308 . In some aspects, S/P converter  308  may split the transmission data into N parallel data streams  310 . 
     The N parallel data streams  310  may then be provided as input to a mapper  312 . Mapper  312  may map the N parallel data streams  310  onto N constellation points. The mapping may be done using a modulation constellation, such as binary phase-shift keying (BPSK), quadrature phase-shift keying (QPSK), 8 phase-shift keying (8PSK), quadrature amplitude modulation (QAM), etc. Thus, mapper  312  may output N parallel symbol streams  316 , each symbol stream  316  corresponding to one of N orthogonal subcarriers of an inverse fast Fourier transform (IFFT) component  320 . These N parallel symbol streams  316  are represented in the frequency domain and may be converted into N parallel time domain sample streams  318  by IFFT component  320 . 
     In some aspects, N parallel modulations in the frequency domain correspond to N modulation symbols in the frequency domain, which are equal to N mapping and N-point IFFT in the frequency domain, which are equal to one (useful) OFDM symbol in the time domain, which are equal to N samples in the time domain. One OFDM symbol in the time domain, Ns, is equal to Ncp (the number of guard samples per OFDM symbol)+N (the number of useful samples per OFDM symbol). 
     The N parallel time domain sample streams  318  may be converted into an OFDM/OFDMA symbol stream  322  by a parallel-to-serial (P/S) converter  324 . A guard insertion component  326  may insert a guard interval between successive OFDM/OFDMA symbols in the OFDM/OFDMA symbol stream  322 . The output of guard insertion component  326  may then be upconverted to a desired transmit frequency band by a radio frequency (RF) front end  328 , which may include a power amplifier (PA), one or more antenna switches, and/or one or more other suitable components. An antenna  330  may then transmit the resulting signal  332 . 
     In some aspects, Rx chain  304  may utilize OFDM/OFDMA. In some aspects, one or more components of Rx chain  304  may be implemented in receive processor  258 , MIMO detector  256 , MOD/DEMOD  254 , and/or controller/processor  280 , as described above in connection with  FIG. 2 . In some aspects, Rx chain  304  may be implemented in UE  120  for receiving data  306  (e.g., downlink data, a downlink reference signal, and/or downlink control information) from base station  110  on a downlink channel and/or another UE  120  on a sidelink channel. 
     A transmitted signal  332  is shown traveling over a wireless channel  334  from Tx chain  302  to Rx chain  304 . When a signal  332 ′ is received by an antenna  330 ′, the received signal  332 ′ may be downconverted to a baseband signal by an RF front end  328 ′, which may include a low noise amplifier (LNA), one or more antenna switches, and/or one or more other suitable components. A guard removal component  326 ′ may then remove the guard interval that was inserted between OFDM/OFDMA symbols by guard insertion component  326 . 
     The output of guard removal component  326 ′ may be provided to an S/P converter  324 ′. The output may include an OFDM/OFDMA symbol stream  322 ′, and S/P converter  324 ′ may divide the OFDM/OFDMA symbol stream  322 ′ into N parallel time-domain symbol streams  318 ′, each of which corresponds to one of the N orthogonal subcarriers. A fast Fourier transform (FFT) component  320 ′ may convert the N parallel time-domain symbol streams  318 ′ into the frequency domain and output N parallel frequency-domain symbol streams  316 ′. 
     A demapper  312 ′ may perform the inverse of the symbol mapping operation that was performed by mapper  312 , thereby outputting N parallel data streams  310 ′. A P/S converter  308 ′ may combine the N parallel data streams  310 ′ into a single data stream  306 ′. Ideally, data stream  306 ′ corresponds to data  306  that was provided as input to Tx chain  302 . Data stream  306 ′ may be decoded into a decoded data stream  303 ′ by decoder  307 ′. 
     The number and arrangement of components shown in  FIG. 3  are provided as an example. In practice, there may be additional components, fewer components, different components, or differently arranged components than those shown in  FIG. 3 . Furthermore, two or more components shown in  FIG. 3  may be implemented within a single component, or a single component shown in  FIG. 3  may be implemented as multiple, distributed components. Additionally, or alternatively, a set of components (e.g., one or more components) shown in  FIG. 3  may perform one or more functions described as being performed by another set of components shown in  FIG. 3 . 
       FIG. 4  is a diagram illustrating an example  400  of a multi-SIM UE, in accordance with the present disclosure. As shown in  FIG. 4 , a UE  120  may be a multiple SIM (multi-SIM) UE that includes multiple SIMS (two or more SIMs), shown as a first SIM  405   a  and a second SIM  405   b.  The first SIM  405   a  may be associated with a first subscription (shown as SUB 1 ), and the second SIM  405   b  may be associated with a second subscription (shown as SUB 2 ). A subscription may include a subscription with a network operator (e.g., a mobile network operator (MNO)) that enables the UE  120  to access a wireless network (e.g., a radio access network (RAN)) associated with the network operator. In some aspects, the first subscription and the second subscription may be associated with the same network operators or with different network operators. 
     A SIM  405  may be a removable SIM (e.g., a SIM card) or an embedded SIM. A SIM  405  may include an integrated circuit that securely stores an international mobile subscriber identity (IMSI) and a security key, which are used to identify and authenticate a corresponding subscription associated with the SIM  405 . In some cases, a SIM  405  may store a list of services that the UE  120  has permission to access using a subscription associated with the SIM  405 , such as a data service or a voice service, among other examples. 
     As further shown in  FIG. 4 , the UE  120  may communicate (e.g., in a connected mode, an idle mode, or an inactive mode) with a first base station  410   a  via a first cell  415   a  (shown as Cell  1 ) using the first SIM  405   a.  In this case, the first subscription of the UE  120  may be used to access the first cell  415   a  (e.g., using a first IMSI for UE identification, using a first security key for UE authentication, using a first list of services that the UE  120  is permitted to access using the first subscription, or by counting data or voice usage on the first cell against the first subscription, among other examples). Similarly, the UE  120  may communicate (e.g., in a connected mode, an idle mode, or an inactive mode) with a second base station  410   b  via a second cell  415   b  (shown as Cell  2 ) using the second SIM  405   b.  In this case, the second subscription of the UE  120  may be used to access the second cell  415   b  (e.g., using a second IMSI for UE identification, using a second security key for UE authentication, using a second list of services that the UE  120  is permitted to access using the second subscription, or by counting data or voice usage on the second cell against the second subscription, among other examples). 
     The first base station  410   a  and/or the second base station  410   b  may include one or more of the base stations  110  described above in connection with  FIG. 1 . Although the first cell  415   a  and the second cell  415   b  are shown as being provided by different base stations, in some aspects, the first cell  415  and the second cell  415   b  may be provided by the same base station. Thus, in some aspects, the first base station  410   a  and the second base station  410   b  may be integrated into a single base station. 
     In some cases, the UE  120  may be a single receiver (SR) (sometimes also referred to as single radio) multi-SIM UE, such as an SR multi-SIM multiple standby (SR-MSMS) UE or a single receiver dual SIM dual standby (SR-DSDS) UE, among other examples. A multi-SIM UE may be capable of switching between two separate mobile network services, may include hardware for maintaining multiple connections (e.g., one connection per SIM) in a standby state, or may include hardware (e.g., multiple transceivers) for maintaining multiple network connections at the same time, among other examples. However, an SR-DSDS UE or an SR-MSMS UE may only be capable of receiving data on one connection at a time because radio frequency resources are shared between the multiple subscriptions. For example, an SR-DSDS UE or an SR-MSMS UE may be associated with multiple subscriptions but may include only a single transceiver shared by the multiple subscriptions, a single transmit chain shared by the multiple subscriptions, or a single receive chain shared by the multiple subscriptions, among other examples. 
     Alternatively, in some cases, the UE  120  may have dual receive, dual SIM, dual standby (DR-DSDS) capabilities, which may allow both SIMs  405   a,    405   b  to concurrently receive, although only one SIM can transmit at a time (e.g., on a time-sharing basis). For example, transmit and receive operations may be enabled for the first SIM  405   a  in a connected mode, and only receive operations may be enabled for the second SIM  405   b  while the first SIM  405   a  is in connected mode, or vice versa. 
     As indicated above,  FIG. 4  is provided as an example. Other examples may differ from what is described with regard to  FIG. 4 . 
       FIGS. 5A-5E  are diagrams illustrating examples  500  of concurrent transmit and receive operations causing potential power amplifier reliability issues in a multi-SIM UE, in accordance with the present disclosure. In some cases, as described herein, examples  500  relate to concurrent transmit and receive operations that may occur in a multi-SIM UE having DR-DSDS capabilities, whereby a first SIM (shown in  FIGS. 5A-5E  as SIM 1 ) may operate in a connected mode in which transmit (Tx) and receive (Rx) operations are enabled while a second SIM (shown in  FIGS. 5A-5E  as SIM 2 ) may operate in an idle mode in which only Rx operations are enabled. Accordingly, in some cases, Rx activity associated with the second SIM may be concurrent with Tx activity associated with the first SIM. 
     For example, as shown in  FIG. 5A , and by reference number  510 - 1  and  510 - 2 , a time division duplexing (TDD) pattern may be configured (e.g., by a base station) for the first SIM associated with the multi-SIM UE when the first SIM is in a connected mode. As shown, the TDD pattern may generally indicate whether a slot is configured as a downlink slot (shown in  FIG. 5A  as DD) in which Rx activity may be scheduled for the multi-SIM UE, an uplink slot (shown in  FIG. 5A  as UU) in which Tx activity may be scheduled for the multi-SIM UE, or a special slot (shown in  FIG. 5A  as DS) in which one or more symbols in an earlier portion of the slot are used for Rx activity and one or more symbols in a later portion of the slot are used to transition from Rx activity to Tx activity. As described in further detail below with reference to  FIGS. 5B-5E , the multi-SIM UE may include multiple antennas and an RF front end (RFFE) with multiple antenna switches that allow a Tx chain to select a particular transmit antenna (e.g., based on an antenna switched diversity (Asdiv) technique and/or a sounding reference signal (SRS) antenna switching configuration) via the antenna switches in the RFFE. Accordingly, in the special slot, the multi-SIM UE may prepare and/or program analog and/or digital components in the Tx chain for transmission, which may include toggling one or more antenna switches to connect the Tx chain to a particular transmit antenna. 
     As further shown in  FIG. 5A , and by reference numbers  512 - 1  and  512 - 2 , DR-DSDS concurrency may be enabled for the second SIM associated with the multi-SIM UE when the second SIM is in an idle mode. For example, the DR-DSDS concurrency may generally allow one SIM to conduct Rx operations concurrently with another SIM conducting Tx operations or Rx operations. In some cases, however, the first SIM and the second SIM may be associated with different wireless networks that are provided by different network operators, whereby the concurrent activity associated with the two SIMs may not be synchronized. In other words, Rx activity scheduled for the second SIM operating in idle mode may at least partially overlap in a time domain with Tx activity scheduled for the first SIM operating in connected mode. 
     For example, as shown by reference number  512 - 1 , Rx activity such as paging reception may be scheduled for the second SIM (e.g., in a paging occasion associated with the multi-SIM UE) at a time that starts prior to the uplink slot for the first SIM and overlaps with the uplink slot in which Tx activity is scheduled for the first SIM. In this case, as shown by reference number  514 - 1 , Tx activity for the first SIM may be disrupted and potentially cause damage or reliability issues for a power amplifier in a Tx chain when the second SIM transitions from performing Rx activity to an off state if the first SIM and the second SIM are connected to the same antenna switch. Additionally, or alternatively, as shown by reference number  512 - 2 , Rx activity may be scheduled for the second SIM at a time that starts during the uplink slot for the first SIM. In this case, as shown by reference number  514 - 2 , the second SIM transitioning from the off state to performing Rx activity may cause damage or reliability issues for the power amplifier in the Tx chain when there is ongoing Tx activity for the first SIM if the first SIM and the second SIM are connected to the same antenna switch. 
     Accordingly, in cases where a multi-SIM UE having DR-DSDS capabilities includes a first SIM operating in connected mode and a second SIM operating in idle mode, Rx activity for the second SIM may cause damage or reliability issues for a power amplifier in a Tx chain associated with the first SIM in cases where the first SIM and the second SIM are sharing an antenna switch and the Rx activity for the second SIM at least partially overlaps in a time domain with the Tx activity for the first SIM. 
     For example,  FIGS. 5B-5E  illustrate various examples  520 - 1 ,  520 - 2 ,  520 - 3 ,  520 - 4  of an RF architecture that includes multiple antennas and multiple antenna switches to support DR-DSDS capabilities in a multi-SIM UE. For example, as shown in  FIGS. 5B-5E , a SIM in connected mode may include a Tx chain with a power amplifier (PA) configured to transmit (e.g., deliver power) towards the multiple antennas. The power amplifier may be connected to a switching element that may toggle between the Tx chain and a low noise amplifier (LNA) associated with a primary receive (PRx) path. As shown in  FIGS. 5B-5E  by reference numbers  522 - 1  through  522 - 4 , the switching element may be coupled to a dedicated antenna (Ant- 1 ), and antenna selection may be performed (e.g., based on an Asdiv technique and/or an SRS antenna switching configuration) to connect the Tx chain to a second antenna (e.g., Ant- 2 , Ant- 3 , or Ant- 4 ). 
     Accordingly, when the first SIM is in connected mode, the first SIM may be operating in a TDD device hopping mode, whereby the Tx chain associated with the first SIM can be switched among different antennas, while an Rx hardware path to the different antennas is in a default configuration (e.g., the Rx chain does not switch between different antennas to minimize RFFE loss due to switching). For example, in  FIG. 5B , a diversity receive (DRx) path for the first SIM is connected to the second antenna, a PRx path for the second SIM is connected to the third antenna, and the DRx path for the second SIM is connected to the fourth antenna. In other examples,  FIG. 5C  illustrates an Rx configuration in which the DRx path for the first SIM and the PRx path for the second SIM are connected to the second antenna and the DRx path for the second SIM is connected to the third antenna,  FIG. 5D  illustrates an Rx configuration in which the DRx path for the first SIM and the PRx path for the second SIM are connected to the second antenna and the DRx path for the second SIM is connected to the fourth antenna, and  FIG. 5E  illustrates an Rx configuration in which the DRx paths for the first and second SIM are both connected to the second antenna while the PRx path for the second SIM is connected to the third antenna. 
     Accordingly, as shown by reference numbers  524 - 1  through  524 - 4 , toggling an antenna switch to enable Rx activity for the second SIM on the antenna connected to the Tx chain of the first SIM may cause damage or reliability issues for the power amplifier in the Tx chain. For example, before the switch is toggled, the power amplifier is transmitting into a circuit that is terminated at the corresponding antenna. However, when the switch is toggled to enable Rx activity for the second SIM while there is ongoing Tx activity for the first SIM, the power amplifier may start to transmit into an open (e.g., unterminated) circuit, which causes the power to be reflected back towards the power amplifier. This may create a standing wave at the power amplifier, which may cause burnouts or reliability issues at the power amplifier. 
     Some aspects described herein relate to techniques and apparatuses to manage power amplifier reliability in a multi-SIM UE having DR-DSDS capabilities to enable antenna switching concurrency between a first SIM operating in connected mode and a second SIM operating in idle mode. For example, in cases where the first SIM and the second SIM are connected to the same antenna switch and Tx activity for the first SIM at least partially overlaps in a time domain with Rx activity for the second SIM, a modem controller that manages the first SIM and the second SIM may perform a preventive action to protect the power amplifier in the Tx chain of the first SIM. For example, in some aspects, the protective action may be to limit the output power from the power amplifier to satisfy a threshold related to a ruggedness or reliability parameter associated with a power amplifier, stop or suspend the Tx activity associated with the first SIM, and/or deny the Rx activity associated with the second SIM (e.g., allowing the Tx activity associated with the first SIM to proceed). In this way, the modem controller may detect a condition that may potentially result in damage or reliability issues for the power amplifier and implement appropriate action to protect the power amplifier. 
     As indicated above,  FIGS. 5A-5E  are provided as examples. Other examples may differ from what is described with regard to  FIGS. 5A-5E . 
       FIGS. 6A-6B  are diagrams illustrating examples  600  associated with managing power amplifier reliability for multi-SIM antenna switching concurrency, in accordance with the present disclosure. As shown in  FIGS. 6A-6B , example(s)  600  include a multi-SIM UE having a first SIM (SIM 1 ) and a second SIM (SIM 2 ) that may support DR-DSDS capabilities, whereby one SIM can conduct Tx and Rx activities (e.g., in connected mode) concurrently with a second SIM conducting only Rx activities (e.g., in idle mode). Furthermore, as shown, the first SIM and the second SIM share a radio frequency front-end (RFFE) that includes multiple antennas and multiple antenna switches or switching elements. For example, as described above, a Tx path associated with a SIM in connected mode may operate in a TDD device hopping mode, whereby the Tx path can be switched between different antennas and Rx paths to the antennas are in a default (e.g., static or fixed) configuration to minimize RFFE loss due to switching. Furthermore, as shown, the multi-SIM UE includes a modem controller that may control one or more operations for the first SIM and the second SIM. 
     As shown in  FIG. 6A , and by reference numbers  610 - 1  and  610 - 2 , the modem controller may receive activity registration information from the first SIM and the second SIM. For example, as described herein, the first SIM and the second SIM may be associated with the same wireless network, different wireless networks, the same network operator, or different network operators, among other examples. Accordingly, activity associated with the first SIM may be asynchronous in time with respect to activity associated with the second SIM (e.g., where the first SIM and the second SIM are associated with different wireless networks or different network operators that are not synchronized with one another). Consequently, in some cases, Rx activity scheduled on the second SIM may overlap in time with Tx activity scheduled on the first SIM, or vice versa. Accordingly, in some aspects, the first SIM and the second SIM may register scheduled activities with the modem controller in advance such that that the modem controller can detect potential conditions that may result in damage or reliability issues for a power amplifier in a Tx chain for a SIM in connected mode. 
     Furthermore, in some aspects, the registered activity may be associated with a priority value (e.g., based on a type of traffic or information to be communicated). For example, in some aspects, the modem controller may use the priority value associated with registered Tx and/or Rx activities to make decisions regarding which preventive action(s) to perform in cases where the modem controller detects a condition that may result in damage or reliability issues for a power amplifier in a Tx chain for a SIM in connected mode. In some aspects, the first SIM and/or the second SIM may indicate the priority value when registering the respective activities associated with the first SIM and the second SIM. Additionally, or alternatively, the first SIM and/or the second SIM may indicate the type of traffic or information to be communicated, and the modem controller may determine the appropriate priority values based on the type of traffic or information to be communicated. 
     As further shown in  FIG. 6A , and by reference number  620 , the modem controller may detect that the first SIM and the second SIM are sharing an antenna switch while the first SIM is in connected mode and the second SIM is in idle mode. Accordingly, the first SIM may be allowed to conduct Tx and Rx operations in connected mode, and the second SIM may be allowed to concurrently conduct only Rx operations in idle mode. In cases where the modem controller detects that the first SIM and the second SIM are connected to the same antenna switch, the modem controller may determine that a potential condition exists whereby Rx activity associated with the second SIM may disrupt Tx activity associated with the first SIM. If the antenna switch shared by the first SIM and the second SIM is toggled such that the corresponding antenna connects to an Rx path of the second SIM (e.g., a PRx path or a DRx path), the power amplifier in the Tx chain of the first SIM may transmit power into an open circuit, which may cause the transmitted power to be reflected back towards the power amplifier and potentially cause damage or reliability issues for the power amplifier. Accordingly, when the first SIM and the second SIM are sharing an antenna switch while the first SIM is in connected mode and the second SIM is in idle mode, the modem controller may determine whether Tx activity associated with the first SIM overlaps in a time domain with Rx activity associated with the second SIM based on the activity registration information received from the first SIM and the second SIM. 
     As further shown in  FIG. 6A , and by reference number  630 , the modem controller may select a preventive action to protect the power amplifier associated with the first SIM in cases where Tx activity associated with the first SIM and the Rx activity associated with the second SIM overlap in a time domain while the first SIM and the second SIM are sharing an antenna switch. More particularly, as described above, a standing wave may be created at the power amplifier associated with the first SIM if the shared antenna switch is toggled to connect the corresponding antenna to an Rx path of the second SIM. Accordingly, as described herein, Rx activities may include preparation and/or programming to place analog and/or digital RF components (e.g., an RF transceiver, analog front-end devices, and/or antenna switches, among other examples) into an appropriate setting or configuration to demodulate, decode, or otherwise process a received signal. In other words, any activities that include or are related to toggling the antenna switch to connect the corresponding antenna to the Rx path of the second SIM may create a condition in which the Tx path of the first SIM is unterminated. Accordingly, when such a condition is detected (e.g., there is overlapping Tx and Rx activity for different SIMs sharing an antenna switch), the modem controller may select a preventive action to protect the power amplifier in the Tx path associated with the first SIM. 
     For example, as shown in  FIG. 6B , and by reference number  640 - 1 , the preventive action may be to limit the maximum output power from the power amplifier in the Tx path associated with the first SIM, in which case the modem controller may transmit a control signal to limit the maximum output power to the first SIM. In some aspects, the maximum output power from the power amplifier may be limited to a value that satisfies a threshold related to a ruggedness and/or reliability parameter for the power amplifier. For example, the power amplifier may be manufactured according to ruggedness and/or reliability specifications that define a maximum output power that is unlikely to result in permanent damage to the power amplifier given a particular load and voltage standing wave ratio (VSWR) (e.g., a maximum number of decibel-milliwatts (dBm) that the power amplifier can withstand when transmitting into an open circuit). Accordingly, in cases where the preventive action is to limit the maximum output power from the power amplifier associated with the first SIM, the maximum output power may satisfy (e.g., be less than or equal) to a threshold that is based on the ruggedness and/or reliability specifications associated with the power amplifier. 
     Additionally, or alternatively, in cases where one or more additional maximum Tx power limits are applicable to the first SIM, the modem controller may take the other maximum Tx power limits into consideration in determining the limit on the maximum output power from the power amplifier. For example, in some cases, the first SIM may be subject to a maximum allowable Tx power limit to protect an Rx low noise amplifier (LNA) in an Rx path of the second SIM from damage due to exposure to high Tx power from the first SIM. Accordingly, in cases where there are multiple maximum power limits applicable to the first SIM, at least one of which is based on the ruggedness or reliability specifications of the power amplifier, the modem controller may determine the maximum allowable Tx power limit for the power amplifier as the minimum of all the maximum allowable power limits applicable to the first SIM. For example, if a maximum allowable Tx power limit for the first SIM is X dBM to protect the Rx LNA of the second SIM from damage due to exposure to high Tx power from the first SIM and a maximum allowable Tx power limit for the first SIM is Y dBM to protect the Tx power amplifier of the first SIM from damage or reliability issues due to Rx activity associated with the second SIM interrupting, disconnecting, or otherwise disrupting Tx activity associated with the first SIM, the maximum allowable power limit for the Tx chain of the first SIM may be determined as min(X, Y). 
     In some aspects, the first SIM and the second SIM may continue to register upcoming scheduled activity with the modem controller, which may enable the modem controller to determine whether and/or when Tx activity of the first SIM and Rx activity of the second SIM are overlapping in time. Furthermore, in some aspects, the modem controller may have a capability to detect the antenna(s) that the first SIM and the second SIM are connected to, or the first SIM and the second SIM may indicate the respective connected antennas to the modem controller. In this way, the modem controller may be able to determine whether the first SIM and the second SIM are sharing an antenna switch or whether the first SIM and the second SIM are connected to different antenna switches. Accordingly, the modem controller may limit the maximum output power from the power amplifier in the Tx chain of the first SIM while the first SIM and the second SIM are sharing an antenna switch and the Tx activity of the first SIM overlaps in time with Rx activity of the second SIM. Furthermore, unless there are additional limits on the maximum output power of the power amplifier, the modem controller may send a control signal to the first SIM to remove the restriction on the maximum output power when the condition(s) that may cause damage or reliability issues for the power amplifier in the Tx chain associated with the first SIM cease to be satisfied (e.g., the first SIM and the second SIM are no longer sharing an antenna switch, Rx activity of the second SIM has ended, and/or the Tx activity and Rx activity of the respective SIMS are no longer concurrent). 
     Alternatively, as further shown by reference number  640 - 1 , the preventive action may be to stop or suspend the Tx activity associated with the first SIM in cases where one or more Tx communications associated with the first SIM at least partially overlap in time with one or more Rx communications associated with the second SIM while the first SIM and the second SIM are sharing an antenna switch. In this case, the modem controller may transmit a control signal to the first SIM to indicate that Tx activity for the first SIM is to be stopped or suspended. In some aspects, the first SIM and the second SIM may continue to register upcoming scheduled activity with the modem controller, which may enable the modem controller to determine whether and/or when Tx activity of the first SIM and Rx activity of the second SIM are overlapping in time. Furthermore, in some aspects, the modem controller may have a capability to detect the antenna(s) that the first SIM and the second SIM are connected to, or the first SIM and the second SIM may indicate the respective connected antennas to the modem controller. In this way, the modem controller may be able to determine whether the first SIM and the second SIM are sharing an antenna switch or whether the first SIM and the second SIM are connected to different antenna switches. Accordingly, the modem controller may stop or suspend Tx activity of the first SIM while the first SIM and the second SIM are sharing an antenna switch and the Tx activity of the first SIM overlaps in time with Rx activity of the second SIM. Furthermore, the modem controller may send a control signal to the first SIM to resume Tx activity when the condition(s) that may cause damage or reliability issues for the power amplifier in the Tx chain associated with the first SIM cease to be satisfied (e.g., the first SIM and the second SIM are no longer sharing an antenna switch, Rx activity of the second SIM has ended, and/or the Tx activity and Rx activity of the respective SIMs are no longer concurrent). 
     Alternatively, as shown by reference number  640 - 2 , the preventive action may be to deny the Rx activity associated with the second SIM such as in cases where the Tx communication(s) associated with the first SIM have a higher priority than the Rx communication(s) associated with the second SIM. For example, in some cases, the Tx activity on the first SIM may include high-priority control information to be transmitted on an uplink (e.g., medium access control (MAC) uplink control signaling on a physical uplink control channel (PUCCH) and/or radio resource control (RRC) signaling, among other examples). Additionally, or alternatively, the Tx activity on the first SIM may include high-priority traffic, such as emergency services related traffic and/or real-time voice or video traffic associated with a real-time protocol (e.g., a real-time voice or video encoded packet transported by a Real-time Transport Protocol (RTP)/User Datagram Protocol (UDP)/Internet Protocol (IP) packet header and/or a Real-time Transport Control Protocol (RTCP)/UDP/IP packet header). In some aspects, the modem controller may therefore determine the respective priorities of the Tx activity associated with the first SIM and the Rx activity associated with the second SIM, and may determine the appropriate preventive action accordingly. 
     For example, in cases where the Rx activity of the second SIM has a higher priority over concurrent Tx activity of the first SIM, the preventive action may be to limit the maximum output power from the power amplifier in the Tx chain of the first SIM or to stop or suspend the Tx activity of the first SIM, as described above. Otherwise, in cases where the Tx activity of the first SIM has a higher priority than the Rx activity of the second SIM, the modem controller may send a control signal to the second SIM indicating that the Rx activity is denied (e.g., the second SIM is not allowed to toggle the antenna switch that is shared with the first SIM), and the concurrent Tx activity of the first SIM may be allowed to proceed. For example, in some aspects, the priorities of the first SIM and the second SIM may be expressed as an integer value within a certain range (e.g., from 1 to 10, from 1 to 5, or another suitable range), with the higher value representing a highest priority. Accordingly, in one example based on a priority range from 1 to 10, with 10 having a highest priority, Rx activity with a priority of 8 and Tx activity with a priority of 5 may mean that the Rx activity has a higher priority, whereby the modem controller may either limit the maximum output power from the Tx power amplifier of the first SIM or stop or suspend the Tx activity of the first SIM. Alternatively, if the Rx activity has a priority of 5 and Tx activity with a priority of 8, the Tx activity has a higher priority, whereby the modem controller may deny the Rx activity of the second SIM and allow the Tx activity of the first SIM to proceed. In general, as described above, the SIMS may report the traffic priorities to the modem controller when registering respective Tx/Rx activities, or the SIMS may report traffic types to the modem controller and the modem controller may determine the respective priorities based on the traffic types.

     In a fourth aspect, alone or in combination with one or more of the first through third aspects, the preventive action is to stop or suspend transmission activity associated with the first SIM while the first communication associated with the first SIM is overlapping in the time domain with the second communication associated with the second SIM.
