Abstract
Various aspects of the present disclosure generally relate to wireless communication. In some aspects, a user equipment (UE) may receive synchronization signal block (SSB) information that indicates, for each respective SSB of one or more SSBs, a quantity of how many beams are associated with the respective SSB. The UE may monitor SSBs, determine one or more beams that provide an SSB based at least in part on the SSB information, and direct one or more reception beams toward the one or more beams. Numerous other aspects are provided.
Claims28
A user equipment (UE) for wireless communication, comprising:
- a memory;
- and
- one or more processors, coupled to the memory, configured to:
- receive synchronization signal block (SSB) information that indicates, for each respective SSB of one or more SSBs, a quantity of how many beams are associated with the respective SSB, wherein the quantity is indicated by one or more bits;
- determine one or more beams that provide an SSB based at least in part on the SSB information;
- and
- direct one or more reception beams toward the one or more beams.
A base station for wireless communication, comprising:
- a memory;
- and
- one or more processors, coupled to the memory, configured to:
- determine synchronization signal block (SSB) information that indicates, for each respective SSB of one or more SSBs, a quantity of how many beams are associated with the respective SSB, wherein the quantity is indicated by one or more bits;
- and
- transmit the SSB information to a user equipment (UE).
A method of wireless communication performed by a user equipment (UE), comprising:
- receiving synchronization signal block (SSB) information that indicates, for each respective SSB of one or more SSBs, a quantity of how many beams are associated with the respective SSB, wherein the quantity is indicated by one or more bits;
- determining one or more beams that provide an SSB based at least in part on the SSB information;
- and
- directing one or more reception beams toward the one or more beams.
A method of wireless communication performed by a base station, comprising:
- determining synchronization signal block (SSB) information that indicates, for each respective SSB of one or more SSBs, a quantity of how many beams are associated with the respective SSB, wherein the quantity is indicated by one or more bits;
- and
- transmitting the SSB information to a user equipment (UE).
