Abstract

Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described, where a wireless communications system may be configured to support an evaluation of beam correlation, such as a correlation of reception directionality, in different component carriers that may be in the same frequency band or in different frequency bands. For example, a first device may simultaneously transmit different reference signals using different component carriers, and a second device may receive the different reference signals. The second device may determine a beam correlation metric, which may include various measures of how well-correlated the receive directions or codebooks are for the different reference signals of the different bands. Such an evaluation may be used to support various configurations of the first device and the second device related to inter-band or intra-band carrier aggregation.
