Abstract
A first wireless communication device, such as a base station, may include separate transmit and receive antenna arrays. The separation between the transmit and receive antenna arrays may cause a direction of a transmit beam formed at the transmit antenna array to be different from a direction of a receive beam formed at the receive antenna array. The transmit and receive beams may be formed for communication with a second wireless communication device, such as a user equipment (UE). The described aspects enable the first wireless communication device to monitor a difference between a first direction of the transmit beam and a second direction of the receive beam. The first wireless communication device may transmit an indication of a beam correspondence failure to the second wireless communication device when the difference between the first and second directions is greater than or equal to a beam correspondence threshold.
