    Abstract: A method of wireless communication includes receiving, by a UE, one or more configuration messages indicating synchronization signals (SS) and physical broadcast channel (PBCH) block measurement timing configuration (SMTC) parameters. The SMTC parameters indicate SMTC windows associated with reception of synchronization signal blocks (SSBs) by the UE from a base station. The method further includes, based on detecting one or more trigger conditions, transitioning, by the UE, from an inactive state to an active state to receive, during a time interval distinct from the SMTC windows, one or more SSBs from the base station. The method further includes performing, by the UE, one or more beam management operations based on the one or more SSBs received during the time interval.

    Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. A wireless device such as a user equipment (UE) may determine a set of scheduled synchronization signal transmission times. A first subset of the set of scheduled synchronization signal transmission times may be allocated for dynamic measurement. The wireless device may select at least one candidate beam from a set of candidate beams for a dynamic measurement during one of the transmission times in the first subset. The at least one candidate beam may be selected based at least in part on a fairness metric, a signal strength metric, a timing metric, or a combination thereof. The wireless device may perform a measure procedure on the selected at least one candidate beam and may transmit a measurement report based at least in part on the measure procedure to another wireless device (e.g., a base station).

    Abstract: Various aspects of the present disclosure generally relate to wireless communication. In some aspects, a user equipment (UE) may measure one or more downlink reference signals using one or more candidate beams in a set of candidate beams to obtain reference signal received power (RSRP) measurements for the one or more candidate beams. The UE may estimate, for each of the one or more candidate beams in the set of candidate beams, a downlink spectral efficiency and an uplink spectral efficiency based at least in part on the RSRP measurements associated with the respective candidate beam. The UE may select a downlink receive beam and an uplink transmit beam based at least in part on the downlink spectral efficiency and the uplink spectral efficiency. Numerous other aspects are described.
