Beam refinement using neighboring ue reference signaling

A network entity, comprising:

• one or more memories storing processor-executable code;
• and
• one or more processors coupled with the one or more memories and individually or collectively operable to execute the code to cause the network entity to:
• transmit, to a first user equipment, control signaling comprising an indication of a resource allocation associated with a physical downlink shared channel for a second user equipment and an indication to measure a demodulation reference signal associated with the physical downlink shared channel for the second user equipment;
• receive, from the first user equipment, signaling comprising a beam management report including measurements associated with the demodulation reference signal associated with the physical downlink shared channel for the second user equipment;
• and
• adjust, based at least in part on the beam management report, a directional beam associated with the first user equipment.

A method for wireless communications by a first user equipment, comprising:

• receiving control signaling comprising an indication of a resource allocation associated with a physical downlink shared channel for a second user equipment and an indication to measure a demodulation reference signal associated with the physical downlink shared channel for the second user equipment;
• measuring, based at least in part on receiving the control signaling, the demodulation reference signal associated with the physical downlink shared channel for the second user equipment;
• and
• transmitting, to a network entity and based at least in part on measuring the demodulation reference signal associated with the physical downlink shared channel for the second user equipment, signaling comprising a beam management report.
