Abstract
Various aspects of the present disclosure generally relate to wireless communication. In some aspects, a user equipment (UE) may detect, via a camera of the UE, an optical beacon emitted from a network node, wherein the optical beacon is associated with a modulation with a repeated pattern that indicates an optical cell identifier associated with the network node. The UE may determine the optical cell identifier associated with the network node based at least in part on the optical beacon. The UE may communicate with the network node based at least in part on a beam association between the UE and the network node, wherein the beam association is based at least in part on the optical cell identifier associated with the network node. Numerous other aspects are described.
