Abstract
Various aspects of the present disclosure generally relate to wireless communication. In some aspects, a user equipment (UE) may receive, from a network node, a single rank reference signal. The UE may obtain, for multiple candidate beams, one or more single rank measurements from the single rank reference signal. The UE may identify, for each respective candidate beam included among the multiple candidate beams and based at least in part on the one or more single rank measurements obtained from the single rank reference signal for the respective candidate beam, a multiple rank spectral efficiency metric. The UE may identify, from among the multiple candidate beams and based at least in part on the multiple rank spectral efficiency metric associated with each respective candidate beam, a beam to use to communicate with the network node. Numerous other aspects are described.
