A receiving device may be either a UE or a base station. The receiving device may receive, from a transmitting device, communication based on a current reference signal (RS) pattern. The receiving device may determine, based on the received communication, at least one updated RS pattern for at least one resource block (RB). The at least one updated RS pattern may include at least one updated energy per resource element (EPRE) value for one or more RS tones. Further, the receiving device may transmit, to the transmitting device, a report of the at least one updated RS pattern. The report may correspond to at least one of an absolute value or a relative value of the at least one updated EPRE value for the one or more RS tones.
