1. A method for wireless communications at a user equipment (UE), comprising:
receiving, from a network device, control signaling indicating a periodic switching pattern for a bandwidth part of a carrier bandwidth for communications between the network device and the UE, the periodic switching pattern comprising a first set of slots associated with a half-duplex communications mode and a second set of slots associated with a full-duplex communications mode;
communicating with the network device during the first set of slots using the bandwidth part; and
communicating with the network device during the second set of slots using at least one of a first sub-bandwidth part configured for downlink signaling for the second set of slots and a second sub-bandwidth part configured for uplink signaling for the second set of slots, wherein the first sub-bandwidth part comprises a first set of resources spanning at least a first portion of the bandwidth part in the frequency domain and the second sub-bandwidth part comprises a second set of resources spanning at least a second portion of the bandwidth part in the frequency domain, the first portion different from the second portion, and wherein a guard period is between the first set of slots associated with the half-duplex communications mode and the second set of slots associated with the full-duplex communications mode.
