Techniques for modifying values transmitted in a measurement report for beam management

A user equipment (UE) for wireless communication, comprising:

• a memory;
• and
• one or more processors coupled to the memory, the one or more processors configured to:
• perform a cell search using a first set of beams;
• determine a channel condition value based at least in part on performing the cell search;
• modify the channel condition value based at least in part on at least one of:
• the first set of beams used to perform the cell search,
• a beam selected from the first set of beams, or
• a second set of beams that is different from the first set of beams and that is included in a beamforming codebook associated with the UE;
• and
• transmit a measurement report that includes the modified channel condition value.

A non-transitory computer-readable medium storing a set of instructions for wireless communication, the set of instructions comprising:

• one or more instructions that, when executed by one or more processors of a user equipment (UE), cause the UE to:
• perform a cell search using a first set of beams;
• determine a channel condition value based at least in part on performing the cell search;
• modify the channel condition value based at least in part on at least one of:
• the first set of beams used to perform the cell search,
• a beam selected from the first set of beams, or
• a second set of beams that is different from the first set of beams and that is included in a beamforming codebook associated with the UE;
• and
• transmit a measurement report that includes the modified channel condition value.

An apparatus for wireless communication, comprising:

• means for performing a cell search using a first set of beams;
• means for determining a channel condition value based at least in part on performing the cell search;
• means for modifying the channel condition value based at least in part on at least one of:
• the first set of beams used to perform the cell search,
• a beam selected from the first set of beams, or
• a second set of beams that is different from the first set of beams and that is included in a beamforming codebook associated with the apparatus;
• and
• means for transmitting a measurement report that includes the modified channel condition value.
