Abstract:
Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communication are described. In aspects of the present disclosure, a user equipment (UE) may report metrics (e.g., received signal power, beam identifier) about synchronization signal (SS) beams using the same (e.g., or a similar) framework that is used for channel state information reference signal (CSI-RS) reporting. Because SSs are intended to be broadcast across a wide coverage area in a beamformed manner, the SSs represent a promising complement to existing beam management techniques. Accordingly, beam management may be achieved at least in part based on reporting one or more metrics of beamformed SSs through a channel feedback framework.

Claim (Index 16):
The method of  claim 11 , further comprising:\n configuring, for the UE, a second feedback resource set and reporting configuration according to the CSI framework, wherein the second feedback resource set and reporting configuration identifies a set of resources associated with a CSI reference signal (CSI-RS) transmitted by the base station using a second set of transmission beams; and receiving, from the UE, at least one channel metric for at least one of the set of resources associated with the CSI-RS and a second resource indicator of the at least one of the set of resources, wherein the determining the characteristic of the transmission beam is based at least in part on the at least one channel metric.
