1. A method for wireless communication at a first wireless node, comprising:
receiving, from a control entity, an antenna grouping parameter associated with a set of antenna elements of the first wireless node;
identifying, based at least in part on the antenna grouping parameter, at least a first subset of antenna elements of the set of antenna elements that meet one or more multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) communication parameters for one or more target wireless nodes, or at least one target wireless node that meets the one or more MIMO communication parameters for at least a second subset of antenna elements of the set of antenna elements; and
transmitting to the control entity, responsive to receiving the antenna grouping parameter, an indication of at least the first subset of antenna elements or the at least one target wireless node.
