Abstract

Techniques are described herein for beam pair link procedures used in dual connectivity operations. A master base station may be configured to determine a timing window for a user equipment (UE) to monitor a downlink channel associated with a secondary base station. In some cases, the master base station may determine the timing window during a dual connectivity procedure or during a carrier aggregation procedure. The UE may monitor the downlink channel during the timing window and establish a beam pair link with the secondary base station based on the monitoring.
