Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. Some wireless communications systems may support communications. For example, a wireless communications system may support New Radio (NR) cellular-vehicle to everything (C-V2X) communication. In some examples, a user equipment (UE) may receive a sidelink control channel for a sidelink transmission on a first set of symbols of a time slot (e.g., the first two or three symbols of a time slot). The UE may decode the sidelink control channel and disable one or more radio frequency (RF) components associated with processing the sidelink transmission on a second set of symbols of the time slot based on decoding the sidelink control channel. For example, the UE may disable one or more RF components if the UE determines the sidelink control channel is decoded unsuccessfully.
