    Abstract: When beamforming (e.g., via a millimeter wave system (mmW)) is used for wireless communication, a base station may transmit beams that are directed to certain directions. Due to the directional nature of the beams in the mmW system, an approach to determine a beam that provides a desirable gain is studied. The apparatus may be a user equipment (UE). The apparatus receives, from a base station, a plurality of signals through a plurality of beams of the base station, each of the plurality of beams corresponding to a respective antenna port of a plurality of antenna ports of the base station, where the plurality of signals include a plurality of beam reference signals, a plurality of beam refinement reference signals, a plurality of channel state information reference signals (CSI-RSs), or a combination thereof. The apparatus performs channel estimation for each beam of the plurality of beams from the plurality of antenna ports based on the plurality of signals.

    Abstract: One apparatus may be configured to detect a set of beams from a base station. The apparatus may be further configured to select a beam of the set of beams. The apparatus may be further configured to determine at least one resource based on the selected beam. The apparatus may be further configured to transmit, on the at least one determined resource, a beam adjustment request to the base station. The request may indicate an index associated with the selected beam. Another apparatus may be configured to transmit a first set of beams. The other apparatus may be further configured to receive a beam adjustment request on at least one resource. The other apparatus may be further configured to determine a beam index of a beam in the first set of beams based on the request and the at least one resource.

    Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communication are described. A user equipment (UE) may pause, while operating in an inactive mode, the performance of one or more small data transmissions (SDTs) in an initial bandwidth part (BWP) in order to monitor for a first set of reference signals in a default BWP. The UE may pause the performance of the one or more SDTs in the first BWP periodically, semi-statically, in accordance with a network trigger, in accordance with the capabilities of the UE, or a combination thereof. The UE may monitor the second BWP for the first set of reference signals, receive the first set of reference signals in accordance with the monitoring, and measure the first set of reference signals. In accordance with the measuring the first set of reference signals, the UE may resume the performance of the one or more SDTs in the first BWP.
