Techniques to facilitate ssb design for reduced capability devices in a non-terrestrial network

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

• monitoring in a first resource for at least a part of a first portion of a first synchronization signal block (SSB) of a non-terrestrial network and a second portion of the first SSB, the first resource being associated with a first beam;
• and
• monitoring for a second SSB of the non-terrestrial network on a second beam in a second resource that overlaps at least in part with the second portion of the first SSB.

A method of wireless communication at a network node, comprising:

• outputting, on a first beam, a first synchronization signal block (SSB) of a non-terrestrial network in a first resource, the first SSB including a first portion and a second portion;
• and
• outputting a second SSB of the non-terrestrial network on a second beam in a second resource that that overlaps at least in part with the second portion of the first SSB.
