1. A method of wireless communication performed by a user equipment (UE), comprising:
transmitting, by the UE, an indication of a set of bandwidth part (BWP) combinations for an inter-band carrier aggregation (CA) configuration in a frequency range above 24 GHz to enable selection of BWPs for the inter-band CA configuration for the UE, the indication indicating, for each BWP combination of the set of BWP combinations, whether BWPs in the BWP combination are requested or supported by the UE; and
receiving, by the UE, the inter-band CA configuration, the inter-band CA configuration comprising BWPs selected based on the transmitted indication of the set of BWP combinations.
