Delay minimization for csi-rs and srs transmission

A method of wireless communication by a user equipment (UE), comprising:

• receiving pre-configuration information indicating a transmission configuration indicator (TCI) state for one or more reference signal transmissions;
• receiving a trigger frame associated with the one or more reference signal transmissions;
• and
• transmitting the one or more reference signal transmissions based on the pre-configured TCI state.

An apparatus for wireless communication by a user equipment (UE), comprising:

• at least one processor configured to:
• receive pre-configuration information for one or more reference signal transmissions;
• perform, at a first time during an ON duration of a discontinuous reception (DRX) cycle, measurements on one or more reference signals based, at least in part, on the pre-configuration information;
• determine if, at a second time during the ON duration after the first time, a trigger frame associated with the one or more reference signal transmissions has been received;
• and
• transmit a measurement report corresponding to the measurements if a trigger frame has been received;
• and
• a memory coupled with the at least one processor.
