Claim 0:
1. An apparatus for wireless communication at a user equipment (UE), comprising:
a processor;
memory coupled with the processor; and
instructions stored in the memory and executable by the processor to cause the apparatus to:
communicate with a network over a directional beam;
receive, from the network, a configuration of one or more channel sounding messages for one or more directional beams associated with a satellite, wherein each directional beam of the one or more directional beams is associated with a set of frequency resources including an anchor resource, each of the one or more channel sounding messages being configured for transmission on a frequency resource, of the set of frequency resources, that is different from the anchor resource, for each directional beam, of the set of frequency resources associated with each directional beam;
determine a trigger for transmitting the one or more channel sounding messages based at least in part on the configuration; and
transmit, to the network, the one or more channel sounding messages for sounding at least one directional beam of the one or more directional beams on respective frequency resources different from at least one corresponding anchor resource in accordance with the trigger and the configuration.
