Abstract:
Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described that provide for refinement of receive beam beamforming parameters at a user equipment (UE). A UE may transmit two or more signals in an uplink transmission that have different beamforming parameters. A base station receiving the uplink transmission may measure the two or more signals, and identify a first signal of the two or more signals based at least in part on the measuring. The base station may inform the UE of the identified first signal, which the UE may use to set receive beam beamforming parameters for one or more subsequent downlink transmissions.

Claim (Index 1):
A method for wireless communication, comprising:\n measuring one or more downlink transmission beams from a base station in a beam sweep procedure; transmitting an uplink transmission using an uplink resource, wherein the uplink resource is based at least in part on the measuring of the one or more downlink transmission beams, and wherein a first portion of the uplink transmission is associated with first beamforming parameters and a second portion of the uplink transmission is associated with second beamforming parameters, and the first portion of the uplink transmission and the second portion of the uplink transmission are beamformed in different directions, employ different antenna combinations, or a combination thereof; receiving an indication from the base station identifying the first portion of the uplink transmission, wherein the indication is based at least in part on the first portion of the uplink transmission and the second portion of the uplink transmission; and selecting the first beamforming parameters for receiving a subsequent downlink transmission from the base station based at least in part on the indication.
