1. An apparatus for wireless communication at a user equipment (UE), comprising:
one or more memories; and
one or more processors coupled with the one or more memories, the one or more processors individually or collectively configured to cause the UE to:
transmit, to a network entity, an indication of a capability of the UE to switch from a first subcarrier spacing to monitor a first set of frequency resources to a second subcarrier spacing to monitor the first set of frequency resources, the second subcarrier spacing being less than the first subcarrier spacing, the indication of the capability of the UE to switch from the first subcarrier spacing to the second subcarrier spacing comprising an indication of an amount of time for the UE to switch from the first subcarrier spacing to the second subcarrier spacing;
receive, from the network entity, in response to the transmission of the indication of the capability of the UE, a first signal that indicates a configuration to monitor the first set of frequency resources according to the second subcarrier spacing; and
switch from the first subcarrier spacing to the second subcarrier spacing to monitor the first set of frequency resources in accordance with the configuration.
