1. A user equipment (UE) for wireless communication, comprising:
a memory; and
one or more processors, coupled to the memory, configured to:
identify a first throughput on a first beam of the UE, wherein the first beam is associated with a first number of antenna elements;
identify an estimated maximum throughput of the UE; and
communicate, based at least in part on the first throughput being greater than the estimated maximum throughput, using a second beam, the second beam having a second throughput that is greater than the estimated maximum throughput, and the second beam being associated with a second number of antenna elements lesser than the first number of antenna elements.
