1. A method for wireless communication at a user equipment (UE), comprising:
identifying a set of available resources for communications at the UE that include one or more baseband resources, one or more radio frequency components, or any combinations thereof, wherein the set of available resources are shared between a first subscriber identification module (SIM) and a second SIM;
determining a first resource partition of the set of available resources that includes a first subset of resources for a first communication using the first SIM and a second subset of resources for a second communication using the second SIM, wherein the first communication and the second communication are at least partially concurrent, and wherein the first resource partition is determined based at least in part on a type of service associated with each SIM, one or more communications parameters associated with each SIM, or any combinations thereof; and
transmitting a first indication of supported communication parameters of the first SIM to a first wireless node and a second indication of supported communication parameters of the second SIM to a second wireless node, wherein the first indication is based at least in part on the first subset of resources and the second indication is based at least in part on the second subset of resources, wherein each of the first indication of the supported communication parameters of the first SIM and the second indication of the supported communication parameters of the second SIM comprise one or more of a quantity of supported component carriers, a quantity of supported multiple-input multiple-output layers, a modulation and coding scheme index limit, a modulation scheme limit, or a throughput limit.
