Enhanced beam management based on beam prediction

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

• memory;
• a transceiver;
• and
• at least one processor of the UE, the at least one processor coupled with the memory and the transceiver, and the at least one processor configured to cause the apparatus to:
• identify a probability of a change in a ranking of beams for wireless communications by the UE;
• transmit, via the transceiver and to a base station based at least in part on identifying the probability of the change in the ranking of the beams, a beam failure recovery message that comprises a request to adjust a parameter associated with a beam management procedure for one or more first secondary cells, the one or more first secondary cells different from one or more second secondary cells associated with using beam failure recovery messages to transmit beam failure recovery reports, wherein the beam failure recovery message is transmitted via a medium access control-control element;
• and
• perform the beam management procedure with the base station based at least in part on the request to adjust the parameter associated with the beam management procedure.
