1. A method for wireless communication in a multi-antenna user equipment (UE), comprising:
communicating with a network device using a first antenna;
assessing communication metrics;
comparing the communication metrics to a threshold;
determining to switch from the first antenna to a second antenna for communicating with the network device based at least in part on the comparing the communication metrics to the threshold;
determining a switch duration corresponding to a length of time to switch from the first antenna to the second antenna for communicating with the network device;
determining a silence window in which communication with the network device is suspended;
determining a silence duration corresponding to a length of time of the silence window;
comparing the switch duration to the silence duration; and
switching from the first antenna to the second antenna during the silence window in response to the silence duration being equal to or greater than the switch duration.
