1. A user equipment (UE) for wireless communication, comprising:
a transceiver for wireless communication;
a memory; and
one or more processors coupled with the transceiver and the memory, wherein the one or more processors are configured to:
transmit, to a scheduling entity, a first message that initiates a random access channel (RACH) procedure;
receive, from the scheduling entity, a second message of the RACH procedure, the second message comprising an indication of one or more channel state information reference signal (CSI-RS) resources for receiving a plurality of CSI-RSs from the scheduling entity;
receive, from a same beam of the scheduling entity, the plurality of CSI-RSs using the one or more CSI-RS resources;
determine a respective quality of the plurality of CSI-RSs corresponding to a plurality of receive beams of the UE;
select one of the plurality of receive beams for communicating with the scheduling entity based on the determined quality of the plurality of CSI-RSs; and
transmit, using the selected one of the plurality of receive beams, a third message of the RACH procedure.
